Description
A beautifully presented substantial detached residence in the sought after area of Chestfield which has been extended and updated to offer a lovely family home.
This large imposing property sits within its own wrap around grounds, offering privacy in this superb residence which has been sympathetically extended and improved to offer plenty of additional space for any sized family to enjoy and offering flexibility to suit whatever your living requirements.
You can make great use of the modern open plan living style but there are extra rooms for some private space too, but wherever you are this is a property with plenty of light and space throughout.
Enter into the property grounds with access through a wooden gate, down a gravelled entrance into the spacious driveway which also has a double aspect garage and plenty of parking for several cars.
At the front of the property is an impressive porch, then the front door opens into the foyer with double doors leading through to the main hall, off which the principal reception rooms are accessed, and the staircase to the first floor.
Across from the hallway is the large open plan kitchen, with an impressive number of units with granite or wood worktops, Neff integrated appliances including two ovens and gas hobs, wine fridge and integrated microwave.
There is plenty of room to socialise on the bar stools or the large family sofa area, so a great space for entertaining with double doors to bring the outside area into play. There is a great utility room with more units and a useful sink. To finish off the ground floor there is also a study and a downstairs cloakroom.
The double aspect sitting room is large with a feature fireplace and double doors leading out to the garden and there is also the entrance through to the conservatory with its pitched glass roof and yet more access to the outside. To the other end of the property is the large dining room overlooking the rear terrace and garden beyond.
The large stairway leads from the hallway and opens up to an impressive landing space, currently with a piano placed there, but with the light streaming in could be used for a studio area, or just a great place to have some reading and relaxation time.
The main bedroom is double aspect with lovely views to the garden and out to the front of the property, there is an enviable dressing room and a large en suite bathroom.
There are three further bedrooms, all generous in size, and one has a beautiful en suite shower, and there is an impressive family bathroom.
Outside to the front of the property is a large area of garden, laid to lawn with a central bed with various trees and shrubs. High hedging and trees surround the plot, giving excellent levels of privacy.
A stone terrace wraps around the back of the house and to each side, giving great areas for outdoor entertaining and al fresco dining. To the rear of the property is the fabulous garden with a large area laid to lawn, with borders on all sides to enjoy some variety and colour throughout the year.
