This individual property enjoys a fine non-estate position just a short walk from the main line train station with excellent commuter road links nearby. The current owners have transformed the property with a programme of expansion, reconfiguration and full refurbishment, in fact a viewer would be forgiven for thinking that the property was newly built. Great care and thought has gone into the design of the property with emphasis on space and light with excellent levels of flexibility and all finished to the highest possible standard. The accommodation comprises a generous welcoming reception hall with porcelain flooring and a bespoke oak staircase with glass balustrade to the first floor, fitted storage cupboard and a luxury shower room just off.
There is a generous dual aspect sitting room and a study which has also been utilised as a ground floor bedroom. The heart of this beautiful home is the fabulous open plan kitchen/dining/family room with bi-fold doors to the rear, windows to the side and a glazed roof lantern which baths the room in natural light. The kitchen area is fitted with contemporary handless cabinetry, a large waterfall central island with Sahara Noir granite top incorporating a Caple induction hob with matching extractor above and below there are deep pan drawers, a wine fridge and refuge storage. All of the appliances are by Caple, these also include twin ovens, one is a conventional fan oven and the other is a combination steam oven plus warming tray, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. The Sahara Noir granite is also present behind the sink and splashback and the sink boasts a Quooker cube tap which produces boiler, sparkling and spring water. Just off the kitchen is a handy utility room with door to outside and space for the usual white goods plus a range of base level and wall mounted storage cupboards and single sink unit.
Upstairs, off the galleried landing are three further double bedrooms, a luxury family bathroom. The master bedroom boasts a dressing area with fitted wardrobe cupboards and a luxury en suite shower room. All bathrooms boast Duravit sanitary ware throughout.
Outside, the property is set back from the road with a neat gravel driveway providing parking for three to four cars with lawned areas and flower and shrub borders, Indian sandstone steps up to the entrance area. Secured gated side access leads to the rear garden which is mainly laid to lawn with a generous Indian sandstone terrace, flower and shrub borders and beds, a dog kennel (which is optional) a timber shed and a vegetable/herb/fruit garden. All enjoys excellent levels of privacy and seclusion.
