The period style staircase has a sturdy newel post and polished timber handrail and the window gives a pleasant outlook towards the front. A timber glazed door leads to the lounge.

DOWNSTAIRS WC

Access is gained through to a downstairs WC. This is tiled down to the half-height with a low level WC and wall mounted hand wash basin.

LOUNGE

This, as the photograph and floor layout plan suggest, is a delightful period room. It has windows to three sides, all of which give pleasant outlooks. Those that overlook the garden are of a large nature and are lower than normal, giving a super central picture window. The room also has a high ceiling height with central ceiling light point and rose, coving to the ceiling and last, but by no means least, a beautiful period style fireplace with raised hearth, polished timber surround incorporating a mantle, Victorian style, cast-iron, open-fire grate with gas coal-burning effect with floral decorative tiles to either side.

This dining room is of a particularly good size and once again has a lovely view out over the property’s large gardens and long-distance views beyond. There is attractive flooring, high ceiling height with central ceiling light point, picture rail and chimney breast. An opening gives access through to the kitchen.

KITCHEN

The kitchen has a view out to the front and also to the rear via the garden room / conservatory. The kitchen is fitted with units of both the high and low level and has Granite effect working services and decorative tile splashback, inset one and half bowl stainless steel sink unit with mixer tap above with plumbing for a dishwasher, glazed and stainless steel fronted Bosch oven, fridge freezer housing point, breakfast bar and display shelving. There are also display cabinets, stainless steel, four-ring, gas hob with extractor fan with pull out canopy over.

Timber glazed door leads through to the garden room / conservatory. This with a particularly stylish glazed roof has a huge amount of glazing that overlooks the property’s fabulous gardens and long-distance views beyond. There is a glazed door giving direct access out to the gardens. The room has attractive flooring and chandelier point. It also has a door through to the property’s particularly large garage, details of which are to follow.

BEDROOM THREE (2.31m x 2.69m)

A pleasant single room with windows to two sides.

BATHROOM

The property’s house bathroom is fitted with a three-piece suite, fitted wash hand basin, low level WC and corner bath. There's a hand-held mixer tap / shower above, combination central heating radiator, heated towel rail in chrome, ceramic tiling to the full ceiling height and obscure glazed window.

OUTSIDE

To the front, a very large tarmacadam driveway which provides turning and parking for approximately four cars, gives access to the attached garage. The garage is much larger than might first be imagined. The door opening at one time was considerably larger and has been reduced down to a single door and personal door. At one time it was home for a previous owner’s delivery van and therefore has a very good ceiling height and is particularly broad. Within there is a window to the side and a workshop / store to the rear, which is once again particularly useful and has a window giving an outlook to the rear. There's also a utility room/ utility area, which has plumbed automatic washing machine space for a dryer, Belfast sink and Worcester wall-mounted, gas central heating boiler. It should be noted that the internal walls do not reach up to the full ceiling height. Therefore, those wanting to make the garage even larger could do so with relative ease.

GARDENS

The property stands in delightful, large gardens. It has lovely garden areas to the front, including shaped lawn with mature shrubbery and trees, and sits well back from Helme Lane in a lovely location heading towards towards Helme itself. The front gardens offer a great deal of flexibility and the driveway, as previously mentioned, is particularly large.

PLANNING PERMISSION

A little while ago, planning permission was granted for the garage to be converted and the conservatory to be altered and the building on of a new sunroom with the addition of a garden store located beneath. Part of this alteration, (see floor layout plan) demonstrates what was achieved from a planning point of view. This is the creation of a side hallway, good sized lounge, secondary kitchen and two double bedrooms, each served by en-suites and then a delightful sunroom served by both elements. This planning permission was gained in order to be able to accommodate relatives from away, but obviously can be adapted to most family needs. It also incorporated/ shows a design of adjoining the dining room and the kitchen and any combination of these elements can obviously be adopted
