## Description

Peaceful tranquillty in semi-rural Coombe Dingle.

**Description**

A much loved family house constructed circa 1959 and standing within a significant plot with level gardens and in this highly desirable semi-rural location.

The property has been well maintained by the current owners who have been in occupation for some 20 years and is presented in a most salient light. There is two storey, four bedroom accommodation and with the ability to extend, subject to the necessary consents. 

Constructed from brick and rendered elevations under a pitched and tiled roof and there are double glazed windows throughout which provide excellent solar gain. Approached via the reception hall, there are two principal rooms, the dining room is dual aspect with windows over the front and rear elevations, and sits adjacent to the kitchen which has a comprehensive range of fitted wall and base units and a pantry with plumbing for a washing machine. The wall mounted gas fired boiler supplies the domestic hot water and central heating. Contained within the kitchen there is an oven and a recess for a fridge freezer, as well as plumbing for a dishwasher. A low level cupboard also provides useful storage underneath the stairs. The drawing room includes a picture window over the front elevation and a gas coal effect fire as the focal point, whilst a sliding full length door opens to the contemporary conservatory which surveys the garden and has central heating. Completing the ground floor is the cloak room. The first floor features four bedrooms off the landing which has loft access, it is worth noting that the loft has been insulated and certain roof works have been recently completed. The principal bedroom includes built in wardrobes and has an advantageous view over the front elevation. There are three further bedrooms, the smallest of which is currently being used as a study and these are served by the family bathroom. 

To the front of the property there is a tandem drive with parking leading to the detached garage with an up and over door and beyond is a useful store. The front garden is laid to lawn and surrounded by deep shrub borders which provide a degree of privacy and with a mature Cherry Tree as the focal point. The rear garden is large and lawned with a sun terrace directly off the kitchen and conservatory. Boundaries are a combination of close borded fencing, hedging and some specimen plants, shrubs and trees. A Beech Hedge provides a natural barrier behind which is a kitchen garden and a green house.
