An attractive Edwardian home with scope for further extension, sitting on a fabulous plot of about 0.47 acre, in a favoured position, close to the school and the town centre. Viewings commencing Tuesday 20th May
The Ramblers is a fine Edwardian family home, that has been altered and extended a couple of times in the latter half of the 20th Century. It now offers a versatile layout whilst retaining much of the original character, including the beautifully tiled hall floor, fireplaces and panelled doors. The large windows flood the rooms with light, whilst affording lovely views over the garden. The property sits well to the front of its fabulous plot, which offers a beautifully planned garden, parking and garaging. The house has been a fine family home for over 60 years and is now ready for new custodians to take it forward in the 21st Century.
The accommodation is set over two floors. The central front door opens to the tiled hall, which has the cloakroom to the far end. The dining room is to one side and has a bay window to the front. The living room is across the hall and enjoys a triple aspect with a bay window to the front, a window to the garden and third to the conservatory. A door leads into the garden room.
The breakfast room has a fireplace and window overlooking the garden. A step leads down to the kitchen, which is fitted with a range of wall and base units. A door opens to the garden. The utility room links to the former garage which in recent years has been used as an art and photographic studio. The adjoining dark room is a useful store.
A graceful staircase leads to the landing, which enjoys a view to the front. Doors lead off to each of the four double bedrooms. Three have original fireplaces in situ. One of the bedrooms has an ensuite shower / linen room. The remaining bedrooms have use of the family bathroom and an additional washroom.
The house enjoys good privacy from the roadside as it sits behind a well-tended hedge and front garden. There is a drive to the left, leading to the original garage, which is now a studio. A gate on the right of the house opens to a larger drive and parking area, set in front of the detached double garage, accessed via electric and manual doors. The garden has clearly been passion of the owners for the last 40 years. The extensive lawn is interspersed with a range of mature fruit trees, including apples and plums. A long flower and shrub bed runs to one side. At the rear of the garden is a productive rhubarb patch. The rose covered trellis arches offer a colourful walkway from the terrace that spans the back of the house. The garden enjoys privacy from the brick boundary wall and the timber fencing. At the back of the house is a small workshop and store.
