Description

This impressive and extremely attractive, double
gable detached house with timber elevations and set within a private position was the first house built on Newlands Road in the 1920’s.

This charming family house with high ceilings
and generously proportioned rooms provides
accommodation totalling over 3,400sq.ft with the
potential to extend further into the large loft space (subject to consent).

The ground floor is accessed through the lovely
gabled entrance porch with original wooden door
leading into a welcoming and spacious entrance hall with under stairs storage and cloakroom. The double aspect sitting room is focused around the central fireplace with gas fire and double doors lead through to the garden room with low brick walls and views over the garden.

The dining room is generously sized with a bay
window to the front and a fireplace with stone
mantle and gas fire. The snug/family room offers
further reception space with French doors opening out to the terrace providing enjoyable outside entertaining space. The kitchen/breakfast room is comprehensively fitted with a range of units, integrated appliances, a spacious walk in larder and a separate utility room. One of the garages was converted into offices some years ago and provides an ideal space for those looking to work or run a business from home - it is considered that this area could be converted into a self-contained annex (subject to consent).

The first floor provides the principal bedroom
with fitted wardrobes, dressing room and en suite
bathroom. There is a further guest double bedroom with en- suite shower room, 2 further double bedrooms and a family bathroom that can also be accessed from one of the bedrooms.

The beautifully maintained gardens are arranged
to the front and rear of the property offering a
surprisingly good degree of privacy with areas of
lawn and well stocked borders enclosed by mature trees and hedging. The decked terrace to the rear offers excellent outside entertaining space and there is a summerhouse to the front with a further paved terrace ensuring you can find and enjoy the sun at any time of day. A gravelled driveway leads around to the front of the property providing ample off road parking available and access to the detached double garage.

Agents Note: There is currently work being carried out on the driveway with established hedging due to be planted in order to provide a clear boundary and a good degree of privacy from the newly built house next door.
