Property description
THE PROPERTY Northgate House is an extremely conveniently situated, non-estate reconstituted Cotswold stone detached family house built some 35 years ago in this quiet and very popular road within a short level walking distance of the local supermarket, and with direct pedestrian access into the town centre.
The house has been recently updated and consists of entrance hall with oak floor, twin cloaks cupboards and staircase to landing. The cloakroom has a new white suite of low level WC and wash hand basin, the lounge across the front of the house has a feature fireplace and the oak stripped floor continues, whilst a very smart kitchen/dining room (originally two separate rooms) has a super range of oak Shaker style units comprising base cupboards and drawers, integrated oven and hob, and central island. Off this is a utility room with a Belfast sink and with direct access into the rear garden. At first floor level, there are four good bedrooms, three of which have fitted wardrobes, and a family bathroom with a refitted white suite offering not only a panelled bath but also a separate shower cubicle.
The property has a recently replaced combi gas fired central heating boiler within the attached garage, there are upvC double glazed windows throughout and we have been advised that loft and cavity wall insulation have been installed. The house is set back from Northfield Road with a five-bar gate onto a tarmacadam driveway with parking for three cars, and the 75' long rear garden is a major feature as it offers above average levels of seclusion and catches the sun in the afternoon.
DIRECTIONS From our office in the centre of town proceed across the mini roundabout into Chipping Street and down the hill. Go past The Royal Oak public house on your right and take the first left into Northfield Road. Shortly after the right hand bend Northgate House will be seen as the second property on the left.
