Property description
PROPERTY SUMMARY There are many times words such as spacious, secluded and deceptive are used when describing houses, however in the instance of Park Wood House all these words are truly justified. The house is set back from the road accessible from a 150' shingled driveway and accessed through large wooden gates in to what can be truly be called a haven, backing on to Park Wood woodlands. The first impression can be mistaken as from the front the house looks like a chalet style bungalow with attractive first floor dormer windows, however, from going inside you are met with over 2,471.15 sq ft of living accommodation spread over two primary floors. The accommodation is both versatile and deceptive, providing the opportunity to work from home, house an aging relative or comfortably home a growing family. On the ground floor is a drawing room, bedroom and study to the left wing with former twin bedrooms, a bathroom, utility room and kitchen to the other wing. On the first floor is a spacious master bedroom with en-suite, dressing room and shower room, a family bathroom and two further double bedrooms. The property could be described as having six bedrooms and two reception rooms, however it has the flexibility to use the living space as the new owners wish to. As you step into the rear garden you are immediately into a secluded area with trees wrapping round the two sides and a mature and well stocked garden attracting a range of wildlife and wild birds. Located within easy access of local shopping amenities, bus routes, Jubilee Park recreation ground, the Queens Inclosure, Heritage Stream, Primary, Junior and Secondary schools as well as commutable road links via the A3(M), early internal viewing is strongly recommended in order to appreciate both the accommodation and location on offer.
