DESCRIPTION: This handsome detached house dates from 1928 and has many good features typical of the period. It provides comfortable, well proportioned accommodation with gas fired central heating and modern, UPVC double glazing. In recent years a stylish shower room has been created, en-suite to the principal bedroom and the existing bathroom has been updated.

The accommodation is approached through an imposing hall with a good staircase and a spacious cloaks cupboard. The sitting room and separate dining room are both beautifully proportioned, each with a bay window, double aspect and fireplace. A conservatory leads off the sitting room and has French doors to a West facing garden. The kitchen provides ample space for a breakfast table with an adjoining utility lobby and cloakroom. There is a second cloakroom leading off the staircase and four bedrooms on the first floor. All are potentially double rooms and three have built-in cupboards. The principal bedroom features a very smart shower room en-suite which has a window, large shower cubicle with fine quality shower, a WC and basin. There is also a spacious bathroom which has been refurbished and has an over-bath shower facility.

A tarmacadam forecourt providing sparking space leads to a substantial detached garage with a remote controlled roller door. Bordering the house on three sides, the gardens are an excellent feature, providing a high degree of seclusion with abundance of mature planting. There is a broad expanse of lawn at the rear ideal for children's games and overall this really is a delightful family home in an excellent location.
