VENDOR SUITED – Located in a popular position on Forest Road, this four-bedroom Edwardian property offers spacious accommodation set over two stories, as well as ample driveway parking with double garage and exceptional south-west facing rear garden, which provides space to develop the property and add further value (subject to consents).
As you enter the property you are greeted by the spacious entrance hall, which gives access to ground-floor accommodation benefitting from period features including original stained-glass windows and period tiled flooring. Overlooking the front aspect is the formal sitting room which provides generous floor space, measuring 15’ 9” x 13’ 3”. The sitting room oozes character and charm with period feature fireplace, bay window and high ceiling height with original picture rail. Beyond the sitting room and accessed from the entrance is the formal dining room measuring 13’ 4” x 13’. The dining room enjoys a dual aspect with doors that lead out to the garden and remains light and airy throughout the day. Currently used as a second reception room with access to the garden, the dining room offers flexibility in how it is used depending on your lifestyle.
At the rear of the property and also overlooking the rear garden is the kitchen-diner / family room. The kitchen comprises fully fitted wall and base units and bespoke joinery, with an integrated dishwasher, fridge freezer, electric hob and space for a large freestanding oven. Subject to consents, there is potential to develop the kitchen and extend to create an impressive modern open-plan kitchen-diner, as per neighboring properties on Forest Road. To complete the ground floor, there is a a pantry and a useful utility room with space for a host of freestanding appliances, as well as a downstairs WC and downstairs shower.
Stairs to the first-floor lead to all four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The master bedroom overlooks the front aspect and measures 16’ x 12’ 8” with spacious built-in wardrobes, whilst bedroom two overlooks the rear garden and offers similar space with built in storage. Bedroom three overlooks the rear garden and can comfortably accommodate a double bed, whilst bedroom four is positioned at the front of the property and would make an excellent nursery / children’s bedroom / ‘work from home’ office. All bedrooms are presented and decorated to a high standard throughout. To complete the first floor, the family bathroom has been updated by the current owner yet retains its Edwardian charm and comprises a white suite with bath and overhead shower.
Externally, the property sits on a large plot which offers plenty of space for all the family to enjoy and would allow scope for development over time. The garden is currently mostly laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs, including fruit bushes, apple trees and a peach tree, as well as a large patio which is accessible from the kitchen and dining room and catches the sun throughout the day. Off-street parking for multiple vehicles is available to the front courtesy of a paved driveway. From both the drive and the garden there is access to the double garage, which benefits from power and lighting. Currently used as storage and a pottery studio, the garage has potential to create an ideal home office or detached studio.
