Property Details

Property Insight:

Situated on the popular Poets estate, this spacious and detached family home property is ideal for modern family living and has plenty of versatile living space.

As you enter the property, it feels spacious and welcoming.  The entrance hall leads through to a generously sized 24’ kitchen/diner.  The kitchen features plentiful shaker-style wooden cabinetry with contrasting, sleek black work surfaces and tiled splashbacks.  There is an integrated double Neff electric oven, a gas hob with stainless steel wall-mounted hood, dishwasher and space for a fridge-freezer.  Two windows and glazed doors to the conservatory introduce plenty of natural light - as well as lovely garden views - and there is ample room for a table and chairs, providing the perfect setting for relaxed family meals.  The kitchen also has direct access to the garden.

The large conservatory provides an incredibly versatile space, given its 24’ width.  Currently set up as a family room with a dining table and sofa area, it enjoys panoramic views of the garden and really comes into its own during the summer months.   With French doors opening on to the patio outside, it’s an incredible space for hosting gatherings with family and friends and enables indoor-outdoor living at its very best. 

Also adjoining the conservatory, and benefiting from the natural light it introduces, is a large sitting room.  Whether you're relaxing with family or hosting guests, this spacious and well-proportioned room provides the perfect setting creating a soothing environment and the perfect place to unwind after a busy day, and there is plenty of room for furniture.  To the front of the house is another highly versatile room.  Currently used as a home office, it’s ideal for working from home, but could easily be repurposed as a playroom, studio or even a fifth bedroom.  Completing the downstairs is a handy cloakroom.

Upstairs are four generously sized and well-proportioned double bedrooms (so no arguing over who gets the largest room!)  The principal bedroom enjoys built-in wardrobes and its own ensuite shower room with a contemporary white suite.  All four bedrooms are bright and airy, with plenty of space for extra furniture.  Completing the upstairs is a stylish family bathroom, featuring sleek grey marbled tiles, a large vanity unit and modern white bathroom suite, including a full-size bath with shower over, plus heated chrome towel radiator.   

The boiler and pressurised water cylinder, both installed approximately three years ago, are located in the loft.

Outside, the secluded garden is mainly laid to lawn and features patio areas as well as established borders with mature trees and shrubs.  It provides a fantastic setting for young children to play, as well as for relaxing and entertaining family and friends.  The front garden is lawned with a paved central path.  To the side of the property is a double garage, with convenient access directly into the garden and off-street parking in front.

The property benefits from approved planning permission (Ref: 25/02422/FPH) for a part two-storey, part single-storey side extension and a single-storey front extension.

This sizeable family home offers plenty of spacious, flexible living space and versatility as well as a fantastic location close to the station and local amenities.
