The property is set on a no through road and was originally built in the 1930's with a later extension constructed in the 1970's and further enhanced and improved by the current owner. Now offering accommodation, over three floors, of 2560sqft.A covered porch leads to the front door which opens to reveal a large entrance hall with ample space for shoes and coats along with a useful panelled cupboard hidden beneath the stairs. Forming part of the extension is a light and open plan kitchen/dining/family room, a splendid room for large social gatherings or family events with doors leading out to the patio and gardens beyond. The kitchen comprises a range of fitted units with 'soft close' doors and drawers, topped with wooden worktops, three full height larder style cupboards and space for a dishwasher, range cooker and American style fridge/freezer. A generous peninsula, with further kitchen cupboards naturally divides the kitchen and dining areas. The dining area offers ample space for a dining table to accommodate twelve to fourteen people and benefits from views of the garden, pond and pool. A set of glazed double doors open to a formal dining room with picture rail, fireplace and door to the entrance hall.  This generously proportioned room, currently used as a music room, could also be used as a playroom or home office area if desired. From the kitchen is a sun room, a wonderful additional reception room which could be used as another dining area or sitting area with doors out to the patio and gardens beyond. Adjacent to the kitchen is the utility room, a large practical space with plumbing for white goods and additional storage along with a separate walk in store/larder and access into the large single garage. The well-proportioned sitting room is situated at the front of the property benefitting from high ceilings, picture rail, exposed wooden floor, a sunny bay window and a modern inset electric fire as the focal point. Stairs rise to the spacious first floor landing which leads to four of the double bedrooms, a bathroom and shower room.
