Description
From the enclosed porch, the front door opens into a welcoming reception hall, setting the tone for this well-presented family home.
To the front, the drawing room enjoys a large bay window and features Carrera marble fireplace, while the adjoining family room with an inglenook offers generous proportions and connects directly to the rear dining room. The dining room is a superb garden-facing living space, with vaulted ceiling, twin skylights, and full-height glazed elevations. Bi-folding oak doors allow the space to open seamlessly into the dining room, while French doors lead directly onto the rear terrace.
The large Stoneham kitchen forms the central hub of the home. Designed with both family life and entertaining in mind, the kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of maple wall and base units topped with quartz worksurfaces. A central island houses the five-ring gas hob, with pendant lighting above providing a contemporary feature. Integrated appliances include double Neff ovens, microwave, dishwasher, and American-style fridge freezer. A stainless steel sink is set beneath a large picture window framing views over the garden, complemented by additional natural light from two Velux skylights. The breakfast area provides informal dining space with French doors opening to the terrace, creating a light and sociable everyday living area. A separate utility room with garden and garage access offers further storage and appliance space.
Accessed from the reception hall, a study and guest cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
The first floor provides five bedrooms. The principal bedroom is generously proportioned with fitted wardrobes and a modern en suite shower room. The en suite features a walk-in double shower with glass enclosure, wall-mounted vanity unit with inset basin, WC, and heated towel rail, all enhanced by a Velux skylight bringing in natural daylight. Bedroom two is another substantial double with a seating area looking out onto the landscaped gardens and also benefits from fitted wardrobes, while bedrooms three and four both benefit from fitted storage. Bedroom five is a flexible room, currently used as a dressing room and enjoying French doors opening to a Juliet balcony that overlooks the golf course at Sutton Park.
The family bathroom is a striking space, finished in warm natural stone tiles and featuring a freestanding oval bath with floor-mounted mixer tap, a separate curved shower enclosure with rainfall head, a floating vanity unit with inset basin, and WC.
A large unconverted, partially boarded loft provides ample additional storage space. The loft has power and a velux window provides natural light.
Gardens & Grounds
The property enjoys a beautifully landscaped rear garden designed to provide both seclusion and year-round interest. A wide stone terrace adjoins the house, offering an ideal spot for outdoor dining and entertaining, with steps leading upto the lawns. The garden itself is framed by mature trees and richly planted borders bursting with seasonal colour, including established shrubs and flowering plants.
In the middle of the garden, a secondary stone patio with seating area is positioned beside a feature pond, creating a tranquil setting for summer evenings. The thoughtful layout allows for both family enjoyment and quiet relaxation, with distinct zones for dining, lounging, and gardening. Outbuildings, including a greenhouse and garden shed, provide practical storage and hobby space.
To the front, a block-paved carriage driveway offers generous parking and access to the integral garage, with established hedging and trees providing privacy from the road.
