A beautifully presented period home, in the classic Victorian style, which has been sympathetically arranged to provide spacious family accommodation extending to three thousand five hundred square feet arranged over four floors. The house dates from the late Victorian era and has been refurbished to a high standard by the present Vendors to provide a very light family home with well arranged and secluded gardens. The property is entered through the main doors to a large hallway off which is the double aspect drawing room with open fireplace, adjacent dining room with bay window, and to the rear of the house the sitting room and playroom both overlooking the rear gardens. There are stairs down to the extensive and well fitted kitchen breakfast room, adjacent laundry room, cloakroom, and pantry with walk in store and storage cupboards. On the first floor there are four double bedrooms all with built in cupboards and two at the rear taking advantage of the rear gardens. The master bedroom is triple aspect and has en suite facilities. This floor also has a family bathroom and separate cloakroom. The top floor of the property has two bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a study, a newly installed bathroom, and walk in store room. The house is approached through electrically operated gates and has an impressive frontage with stone walling and iron railings. The forecourt provides parking together with the double garage. The mature established gardens are a feature of the house and lie to the south and west, predominantly laid to lawn with a large stone paved terrace accessed from the breakfast area. There is a further broad terrace accessed from the main hallway. There are established shrubs and hedging providing seclusion for the gardens.
