Set on an unusually generous plot of approximately one acre, this detached five-bedroom Edwardian-style home combines period character with a contemporary family layout. The ground floor centres on a large open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with a high-spec Miele kitchen, underfloor heating and bi-fold doors that open onto a wide paved terrace — ideal for entertaining and everyday family life. Three reception rooms, a utility/laundry and useful study/snug add flexibility for home working and play.
Upstairs the principal and second bedroom suites both offer en suite facilities, with three further double bedrooms on the upper floor and a fully tiled family bathroom. The house has attractive original features (high ceilings, oak staircase, box-bay windows) alongside recent improvements such as new soffits, fascias and drainage, plus ultrafast fibre broadband — a practical plus for modern families.
The mature, south-west facing garden is a standout asset: extensive lawn, woodland edge, multiple lifestyle outbuildings including a gym/garden room, sauna, outdoor jacuzzi and party shed. The plot provides scope for further landscaping or additional leisure uses (subject to permissions). Off-road parking for several cars and an integral single garage complete the outdoor offering.
Practical points: the property is freehold and chain-free, but the integral garage fits one modern car only and the house sits on cavity walls with no known added insulation. Council tax is in a high band. Overall this is a spacious, characterful family home that will suit buyers seeking generous outdoor space and lifestyle amenities, with some scope for energy upgrades and modernisation to maximise long-term value.
