Inside the property

Off the hallway is a downstairs WC with wash basin. Understairs there is a doorway which leads down to the cellar area, this is divided up into separate rooms providing excellent storage but restricted in head height, one of the rooms has been designed into a recreation room which would be ideal for children to use as a play room, it has lights and power with carpeted floor. The drawing room feels bright and airy with several windows along two walls and double doors leading out to a veranda which overlooks the rear garden and has steps leading down. A particular feature of the room is a stunning art deco fireplace with wooden surround, tiled hearth and metal guard rail. An archway leads you through into the dining room, a fabulous size which is ideal for entertaining, with an attractive coved ceiling and a original serving hatch through to; the kitchen is fitted with a good array of units, both floor and wall storage, they are finished in a high gloss with stunning granite worktops which extends into a breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include dishwasher, Range with 8 ring hob and extractor above, wine fridge, washing machine, and the owner has found an ingenious way to inset the microwave and American fridge. There is also a separate larder with shelving and a door leading to the rear garden.
First floor
A wide solid staircase leads up to the first floor and onto a lovely galleried landing, which is bright and airy with a window overlooking the front of the property to your left. The principal bedroom is a great size with a range of fitted wardrobes and a vanity basin. You will find 3 further bedrooms on this floor all of which are a good size and have wash basins installed. One of the bedrooms is currently being used as a study and it features, built in storage, airing cupboard and double doors out to a balcony with decorative semi circular wrought iron balustrade over looking the garden. The bathroom is a white suite comprising of a sunken bath with shower above, translucent glass wash basin, bidet, wc and chrome heated towel rail. Fully tiled with a mosaic design.

Outside
The property is set back from the road and approached via a driveway that leads into the front garden, a path branches off towards the front door bordered by dense foliage which provides a high degree of privacy. The driveway continues through secure gates down into the rear garden, to a larger then average double garage with power and lighting and a roller shutter door. You might notice the circular formation in front of the garage, this is interestingly the remnants of a car turntable, a previous owner used to be able to drive their large Rolls Royce down the driveway and physically turn the car to then be able to reverse it into the garage. Next to the garage is a wooden built outbuilding which has power, light, carpet and double glazed windows, it has been used as a "mancave" but offers the new owner a versatile building which could serve a whole variety of uses. Adjacent is an undercover carport with space behind and to the side of the garage. The rear garden is mostly laid to level lawn with a herbaceous border and several mature shrubs and trees around it perimeter, during the summer months when the trees are in bloom the garden is private and barely overlooked by the neighboring properties. There is a summer house at the opposite end of the lawn which has a covered decking area in front, a pathway leads to the side of the property providing external access to the basement room mentioned earlier in the brochure, as well as a garden machinery storeroom beneath paved veranda.
