‘Aspirational Homes’ from Magenta Estate Agents present an impressive 1930’s family home enjoying an elevated position with fine views towards St Peter’s Church. To create that all-important positive first impression close attention has been paid to the frontage; from the colourful flower beds to the neat lawn and the elegant metal railings. Equal to the lovely exterior is the spacious and versatile interior which has been extended without losing any of the intrinsic period charm.
Highlights include:
ACCOMMODATION
Enter the property via the original 1930’s door into the entrance hall which welcomes you with airy high ceilings and an attractive panelled staircase beneath which is a guest cloakroom with wash-hand basin and WC. Of the five reception rooms, the lounge is a standout room enjoying a stunning cast iron and tile fireplace which instantly draws the eyes upon entering. A door off the lounge leads to the study. From the hallway are panelled doors leading to the sitting room and kitchen/breakfast room. A period-style fireplace lies at the heart of the sitting room complemented by the wooden flooring which flows seamlessly into the light-filled music room where there are French doors opening onto the rear garden. The fourth bedroom is located off the music room and benefits from a refitted en suite with large walk-in shower enclosure, basin and WC. Pairing functionality with a traditional aesthetic, the kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a characterful natural wood kitchen with durable granite worktops. The kitchen incorporates lots of useful storage and display space in the dresser-style units in addition to an undermount Butler-style sink, integrated dishwasher and built-in wine cooler ideal for the many dinner parties you are bound to enjoy in the adjacent dining room. A utility room completes the ground floor accommodation.
Stairs rise to the first-floor landing where there is access to the loft space and a built-in cupboard housing the gas-fired boiler. In the dual-aspect master bedroom, the fitted white window shutters help keep the room cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter at the same time as welcoming in the natural light and, of course, the church view; the neighbouring dressing room affords open wardrobe storage. Bedrooms two and three both benefit from built-in wardrobes and views of the lovely rear garden. Within the excellent-sized family bathroom is a white suite comprising a pedestal basin, WC, roll-top bath with ball and claw feet, and shower enclosure. The minimalist monochrome colour palette is balanced beautifully against the traditional suite.
OUTSIDE
Delivering enviable kerb appeal, the property is accessed via a block-paved driveway which affords ample off-road parking for several vehicles. Well-stocked borders enclosed by stone walling afford colour and fragrance. There is also the benefit of a brick-built, detached garage/workshop with remote-controlled door. Paved steps lead up to the attractive entrance porch with its impactful brick detailing.
A place to tempt the whole family out into the fresh air, the expansive rear garden has been landscaped to create an attractive and functional haven; somewhere to enjoy meals alfresco with ample space for kids to play. Occupying approximately one third of an acre, the garden is predominantly laid to lawn with abundant plant, shrub and flower borders and beds including lavender, heuchera and foxgloves. There is the benefit of a block paved patio ideal for seating, though we believe a large table and chairs would sit very nicely at the rear of the garden, where, with a glass of wine and good company, you can sit and enjoy the view of the church.
