Set behind private electric gates on nearly one acre, this distinguished 1930s five-bedroom detached home delivers generous family living and formal entertaining space. Light-filled reception rooms, an expansive open-plan kitchen with curved bespoke cabinetry and a conservatory-style garden lounge create a flexible, sociable ground floor for day-to-day life and gatherings.
The gardens are a standout: south‑east facing landscaped lawns, specimen trees, a full‑size private tennis court and a powered summer house currently used as a home office. A detached double garage and wide gated driveway provide ample parking for several vehicles, making arrivals and storage straightforward for busy households.
Upstairs offers five well-proportioned bedrooms, built-in wardrobes and two fully tiled family bathrooms. Quality joinery and a galleried landing reflect the home’s period craftsmanship, while a separate utility and second kitchen enhance practicality for larger families or entertaining.
Important considerations: the property dates from the 1930s and, despite being well maintained, periodic upkeep associated with older homes and extensive grounds should be expected. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The house has two bathrooms for five bedrooms and the sizeable plot and tennis court will incur ongoing maintenance costs.
