## Description

Occupying a desirable position in the highly sought-after Waverley development, this exceptional, significantly extended four-bedroom detached home offers an outstanding standard of accommodation, perfectly tailored to the demands of modern family living and professional lifestyles.

Upon entering the property, the entrance hall immediately sets the tone, showcasing the quality of finish, thoughtful design and sense of space found throughout the home. From here, the accommodation opens into a magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, an impressive extension that forms a striking focal point of the property and provides a superb environment for both everyday living and entertaining.

The contemporary kitchen is finished to an excellent standard, featuring quartz work surfaces, a comprehensive range of integrated appliances and a striking central island with feature lighting. Designed with both style and functionality in mind, the space is flooded with natural light from bi-folding doors and feature windows, creating a seamless connection between the interior and the landscaped garden beyond. The dining area comfortably accommodates gatherings, while the adjoining living space offers a relaxed, inviting setting for family life.

Practicality has been carefully incorporated, with a separate utility room, a ground-floor W.C., and a well-placed storage cupboard enhancing the functionality of the ground floor.

Further reception space is provided by a generously proportioned playroom, offering excellent flexibility for individual needs, whether as a home office, study, snug, or games room. A separate living room completes the ground floor's accommodation, providing an additional, more formal space ideal for quiet evenings or entertaining guests.

The first floor is accessed via a spacious landing, and the four bedrooms are well-proportioned doubles, each fitted with high-quality bespoke wardrobes. The principal bedroom is complemented by an elegant en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom finished to a high standard.

Externally, the rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to reflect the quality of the interior. Bi-folding doors open directly onto an expansive porcelain patio, creating a superb space for outdoor dining, entertaining and summer gatherings. Raised planters add structure and visual interest, leading down to a lower-level garden with an artificial lawn, providing an attractive, low-maintenance and child-friendly environment that can be enjoyed throughout the year.

To the front, the property benefits from driveway parking, completing this highly desirable home. Viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the space, finish and lifestyle this outstanding property affords.

Waverley is an exciting community in Sheffield, just 5 miles from Sheffield City Centre, and is perfect for those wanting great commuting links and amenities on their doorstep. Waverley is an innovative regeneration scheme which will feature new homes, lakes and a school alongside a new village centre. Olive Lane, the proposed ‘Heart of the Community’ scheme, will provide residents with local independent retailers, coffee shops, restaurants, community hub and medical centre.

REDBRIK SECUREMOVE™ - IMPORTANT PLEASE READ:

Redbrik is marketing this property with the benefit of Redbrik SecureMove™. Redbrik has introduced SecureMove™ to help speed up the sales process, minimise sale fall-throughs and give more certainty to both the Seller and the Buyer. Purchasers will benefit from the Buyer Information Pack (BIP), which we have created with our legal partners, to give buyers more information before they agree to purchase.

The pack includes:

TA6 (Property Information Form)

TA10 (Fittings and Contents)

Official Copy of the Register

Title Plan

Local Search*

Water and Drainage Search*

Coal and Mining Search*

Environmental Search*

(Redbrik has ordered the local, drainage, coal and environmental searches; we will add these to the BIP as they become available)

Redbrik SecureMove™ allows the sale process to be completed significantly quicker than a ‘normal sale’. This is because the legal work, usually done in the first four to eight weeks after the sale is agreed, has already been completed. The searches, which can take up to five weeks, are ordered on the day the listing goes live and are transferable to the successful Buyer as part of their legal due diligence.

Additionally, and on behalf of the Seller, Redbrik requires the successful Buyer to enter into a Reservation Agreement and pay the Reservation Agreement Fee of £595 (including VAT). This includes payment for the Buyer Information Pack and all the searches (which a buyer typically purchases separately after the sale is agreed).

Upon receipt of the signed Reservation Agreement, payment of the Reservation Agreement Fee, completion of ID and AML checks and the issuing of the Memorandum of Sale, the Seller will agree to take the Property off the market and market it as Sold Subject To Contract (SSTC).

During the Reservation Agreement period, the Seller will reject all offers and not enter into another agreement with any other buyer. The reservation period is agreed upon at the time of sale but is usually between 60 and 120 days.

The Reservation Fee is non-refundable except where the Seller withdraws from the sale. A copy of the Reservation Agreement is available on request, and Redbrik advises potential buyers to seek legal advice before entering into the Reservation Agreement.

EPC Rating: B
