A five-bedroom, detached, 1920s-built family home perfect for London commuting.
Ground Floor
Upon entering the porch and hardwood Carolina-style front door, one is greeted by light taupe walls and tasteful wooden flooring flowing effortlessly from room to room.
A generously proportioned dining room/lounge is defined by its box bay window to the front aspect, which serves as a welcome source of sunlight to this significant living space. The room is complete with an electric fireplace, hearth and mantlepiece.
A similarly expansive, double-aspect drawing room can be found across the hallway, with its generous proportions, splayed bay window to the front and glass-paneled double doors to the far end. An enviable living space is created with an open and bright aesthetic. The room is completed with a hallmark wood burner encased in a tasteful matte black enclosure.
An elegant shaker-style kitchen with light grey timber cabinetry and quartz worktops renders a welcome sense of contemporary design to what is arguably the defining aspect of a home. The kitchen installation occupies two walls and comes complete with a central island/breakfast bar, housing the Bosch™ dishwasher and a stainless steel 1810® bowl and a half sink.
Other appliances include a Neff® four-ring gas hob, canopy extractor, microwave and slide-and-hide oven. A Hotpoint® 50/50 fridge-freezer completes a comprehensive provision of everyday essentials.
The extensive kitchen area also provides further space for a small table and chairs and provides access to the rear garden through double French doors.
The ground floor is complete with a small vestibule and conservatory, access to which is obtained through the drawing room. This then leads on to a shower and utility room.
A brand-new, gas fired boiler has been installed within the utility area with the accompanying hot water cylinder and expansion tank thoughtfully positioned within the integrated garage, access to which is obtained through the utility room.
A tastefully tiled shower room complete with hand basin and toilet provides a welcome facility provision to the downstairs area.
