Shirley Drive offers an especially pleasant approach, with a substantial 1930s home set back from the road, neatly positioned behind a driveway. The property briefly comprises a spacious open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, a separate utility room, and a cosy lounge on the ground floor. To the rear, the home benefits from a south-facing garden with an additional outbuilding. On the first floor, there are five bedrooms, making this the ideal family home.
Upon entering, you are welcomed into a modern open-plan living space, where a chic wood and glass balustrade leads to the first floor, with a large reception room tucked off to one side. The adjoining dining and kitchen area is a harmonious blend of terracotta and neutral tones. Dark wood cabinetry sits beneath polished wooden worktops, complemented by stone cabinetry above. The striking central island, with its luxurious wooden surface and polished concrete finish, provides a contemporary touch and serves as the perfect spot for your morning coffee. This delightful space offers a seamless connection to the garden through bi-fold doors.
The ground floor is completed by a useful utility room and a cloakroom, while a separate snug provides a perfect retreat for teenagers or those seeking a quiet escape from the main living areas.
From the spacious landing, you can access five generously sized bedrooms and a family shower room. The impressive primary suite features a dressing room and an en-suite with dual sinks, a freestanding bath, and a walk-in shower. The smallest of the five bedrooms could also serve as a study or guest room, while the remaining bedrooms all offer ample space and built-in wardrobes.
The good sized south facing garden is bordered by mature fir trees, ensuring year-round privacy. The garden’s mature borders and lawn offer ample space for outdoor furniture, making it ideal for alfresco dining.
