"Stylishly presented detached family home with light and bright modern interiors, in a sought after residential road on the edge of Newick.

Description

Birch Hollow is a detached chalet style family home, located in a sought after residential road on the western edge of Newick, with a lovely southerly outlook over its own garden to fields beyond.

The property offers nearly 2,400 square feet of accommodation over two floors, which has been recently redecorated in a light and bright, neutral colour palette complemented by modern oak joinery and wooden flooring through the ground floor; there remains good potential to further extend, subject to the necessary consents.

The front door opens to a central entrance hall, from which an oak staircase with glass balustrade rises to the first floor. The large and versatile dual aspect reception room has an expanse of bi fold doors opening fully to the terrace, and an inset woodburner with polished granite hearth.

The kitchen and dining room also has bi fold doors to the garden, and is fitted with a good range of contemporary, high gloss white units and a large central island, with quartz worktops and a range of integrated appliances including a Siemens double oven and warming drawer, gas hob, an integrated refrigerator, two slimline wine fridges, and a Quooker boiling water tap.

A utility cloakroom with further units, spaces for laundry appliances, a basin and WC completes the ground floor.

There are five bedrooms on the first floor, together with a family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a lovely room, comprising a spacious bedroom with built in storage, and an en suite bathroom with underfloor heating, partitioned from the bedroom by way of a frosted glass screen, with a wet room style walk in shower, a modern freestanding bath and a tall window framing the view to the garden. Bedroom five is currently used as a study, and has a range of fitted furniture including a desk and book shelving.

The property is accessed from Lower Station Road via a generous driveway offering ample off street parking, edged by shrub borders and with a central fir tree and driveway lighting.

There is gated access at both sides of the house to the south facing rear garden. A stone terrace, with plenty of space for an outside table and chairs, spans the back of the house, with a stylish sunken fire pit area to one end, pathways and outside lighting.

The lawn extends out from the terrace, enclosed by close board fencing, mature shrubs and flower borders, with a feature waterfall on the eastern bank; low hedging to the southern boundary enhances the rural outlook beyond. A pathway leads down one side of the lawn, past an ornamental fountain, to the far end of the garden, where there is a timber shed and two raised beds. A further metal storage shed, of about 100 sq ft with a fitted workbench, lies to the eastern side of the house, together with an open log store. In all, the plot extends to just over a quarter of an acre.
