Council tax band: B.
A home quite unlike anything else on the market! Occupying a generous plot on the ever-popular Cromer Road in Northwood, this substantial three/four bedroom detached property offers an extraordinary amount of space, flexibility and future potential.
What makes this home particularly interesting is its history: the property was originally two semi-detached houses, before the current owners purchased both and combined them to create one wonderfully spacious detached residence. The result is a genuinely unique home with an incredibly versatile layout, four reception rooms, three/four bedrooms, two driveways and a magnificent rear garden. For those thinking longer term, the original configuration also presents exciting scope for potential reconfiguration into two separate properties, subject of course to any necessary permissions and building regulations.
From the moment you arrive, the sheer scale of the plot becomes apparent. To the front are two separate driveways, each providing off-road parking for a vehicle, accompanied by established hedging, decorative shrubs and planted borders which create an attractive approach to the property.
Step through the front door and the possibilities begin.
The entrance hall leads into the first of the home's four reception spaces, a bright and welcoming bay-fronted lounge featuring an electric fireplace as its focal point. Generous proportions and plenty of natural light make this an inviting everyday living room.
Internal folding doors connect the lounge with the dining room, another excellent-sized reception space with a large window overlooking the rear garden. Whether used for family meals, entertaining or larger gatherings, it provides plenty of room to make your own.
Adjoining the dining room is the existing kitchen, fitted with an ample range of storage cupboards and enjoying a pleasant outlook over the garden, together with direct access outside. A convenient ground-floor WC completes this side of the accommodation.
And this is where the layout becomes particularly interesting.
The dining room also opens into a further substantial reception room which is currently used as a highly practical multi-purpose space, housing appliances and additional storage. Importantly, the room already benefits from plumbing, opening up exciting possibilities for its future use — perhaps as a larger kitchen, kitchen/diner, utility space or something entirely different to suit the next owner's requirements.
Completing the ground floor is a delightful second bay-fronted sitting room. Bright, spacious and full of character, it benefits from three windows and a fireplace feature, creating a lovely room in which to sit back, relax and enjoy the surroundings. Equally, with so much accommodation available, the room could easily adapt to suit a family's changing needs.
Head upstairs and the sense of space continues.
There are three generous bedrooms plus a versatile fourth bedroom/home office area. Two particularly impressive double bedrooms sit to the front of the property, both featuring attractive bay windows. One enjoys fitted storage, while the other benefits from its own en-suite shower room, partially tiled and fitted with a generous double shower enclosure.
The third bedroom is another excellent-sized room overlooking the rear garden and is comfortably large enough to accommodate a double bed.
Then comes the flexible office/possible fourth bedroom. Currently used as a home office and incorporating fitted wardrobe storage, this area presently forms part of the access through to the other bedrooms rather than being fully separated. For a buyer keen to redesign the first-floor layout, however, it offers yet another opportunity to explore and could potentially be reconfigured into a more defined fourth bedroom.
A spacious and modern family bathroom completes the first floor, finished with contemporary tiling and featuring a bath with shower over.
Yet for all the accommodation inside, the rear garden may just steal the show.
It is quite simply superb.
Exceptionally generous in size and beautifully established, the garden offers a wonderful mixture of sweeping lawns, mature trees, decorative shrubs, colourful planted borders and multiple paved seating areas. There are numerous spots for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply sitting and enjoying the surroundings, while the sheer amount of space offers enormous scope for keen gardeners, growing families and anyone who appreciates having a substantial private outdoor area.
This is not a conventional home — and that is exactly what makes it so exciting. Originally two houses, now one incredibly spacious detached residence, it offers an abundance of accommodation together with almost endless possibilities for how the space could evolve in the years ahead.
Whether you are searching for a substantial family home, need flexible accommodation for home working or multi-generational living, have ideas for remodelling and modernisation, or are simply looking for a property where space and potential are in plentiful supply, Cromer Road deserves to be seen.
Four reception rooms. Three/four bedrooms. Two driveways. A huge garden. One truly unique opportunity.
