I have many magical memories here, especially in the garden growing up as a child. My parents would always hold parties during the summer and as kids we would get to run around, making dens in the thick hedgerow, playing tag, tackling the climbing frames and creating a make-shift water slide with a hose in one area of the garden. It was so much fun; all the kids wanted to come by as we had the very ‘cool’ house. (It was great for my school reputation!) I adore this house for so many reasons. One is the fact that it is so well-designed, being split-level. As I got older and wanted some independence, my brother and I felt as though we had our own ‘floor’ which worked incredibly well when our friends came round. We never felt as though our parents were in the way. This layout even works well now with me as an adult, bringing up my two children. We often have a lot of family over to stay and the house never feels cramped. Everyone always feels as though they have their own space to relax and unwind. On top of this, the garage conversion that took place a while ago really makes this house extra unique. The large reception room was once used as a dining area every Christmas, where all the family would gather around a huge dining table. Lots of core memories were made over that table, which will last me a lifetime. It has also been a 'Party Room ' complete with a snooker table and light-up dance floor. Needless to say, we all had a lot of fun! Honestly, the scope of this house is endless. So why am I going, you ask? Well, I have lived here a long time and I now feel the time has come for me to spread my wings and start my new midlife chapter. It is time to pass on this truly amazing house to the next owners who can reap the rewards of its unique layout and beautiful garden. Yes, I will miss it (a lot!), but I’m extremely grateful to have had the privilege of growing up here and for my children to have created their own memories that we will all cherish going forward</em>."</p><p>Occupying a generous corner plot of approximately one third of an acre within a peaceful cul-de-sac, this substantial freehold detached family home offers approximately 2,421 sq ft (225 sq m) of accommodation, including the double garage.
