The Property
Stepping into a light and spacious Entry Hall with pleasingly practical Indian Slate tiles, warmed by underfloor heating, these Mandarin Stone ‘Rajah’ tiles continue on through both the Kitchen/Diner and the Utility Rooms to harmonise and accentuate the flow of this property.
The Sitting Room lies at the end of the wide Hallway, a lovely, spacious room spanning the depth of the house, with an open, working fireplace framed by Victorian style tile panels and wood mantel. The room enjoys dual aspect and is flooded with light from the adjoining, brick and wood-frame Conservatory. A super space overlooking the private rear gardens and a large terraced pond. With direct access to the paved patio and gardens, it is an inviting spot for morning coffee and papers, while fully-fitted blinds make it usable all day long.
Double glazed doors can separate the Sitting Room from the Kitchen/Diner, a light and welcoming space with a bespoke, Shaker kitchen painted in calming, pale green made by local firm Advance Joinery in the summer of 2013. Countertops are River White granite with integrated draining board and matching window cills emphasise the delightful attention to detail. This classic, fresh, fully-fitted kitchen includes integrated oven, induction hob, fridge, glass-fronted display units and the room is fully illuminated by low energy LED recessed lighting.
The Utility is a good practical room, tiled and fitted in white units offering plenty of storage and with direct access into the Double Garage. A well-designed area with copious storage and an external door to the secure enclosed gated rear gardens, the garages also house the boiler. The downstairs is completed with a WC.
