Scoops Nest, Kake Street, Waltham

3 Bedroom Detached House for sale in

A striking detached residence that has been artistically renovated by the current owners, who has a creative eye for interior design. Offering almost 1,300 sq. ft. of elegant accommodation, the property has been significantly enhanced with brand-new kitchens, bathrooms, and oak doors. The meticulous finish showcases the finest craftsmanship, using natural materials that beautifully balance with the earthy tones of the F&B and Little Greene décor.

Scoops Nest occupies a generous 0.15-acre plot, featuring an extensive new driveway and incredible views of paddocks and rolling countryside. The south-facing garden reflects the equally impressive interior, with every corner immaculately landscaped.
No stone has been left unturned during this elegant restoration, and every effort has been made to ensure the property is exceptionally energy-efficient, featuring high levels of insulation in the roof, maintenance of all the windows, and three wood-burning stoves providing additional heating.

The new oak front door opens into a charming entrance hall with slate flooring, laid seamlessly throughout, leading into the open-plan kitchen dining room. Here, the space has been beautifully transformed with a brand-new shaker-style kitchen, finished with brushed brass cup handles and oak worktops. A utility cupboard discreetly encloses laundry appliances, while the butler sink with brass mixer tap sits in front of the window. To the left of the sink, there is a double range stove, backed with metro-style porcelain tiles. Vaulted ceilings with three skylights allow pools of sunlight to flow in, and the stable door leads to the rear garden. The room is further enhanced by a large wood-burning stove.

Double oak doors lead into the charming sitting room, which features impressive high ceilings, a cast iron column radiator, and another wood burner. This in turn leads to a well-maintained double-glazed conservatory with heating and a shaded roof, allowing the room to be used all year round.

The family bathroom comprises a freestanding bathtub with traditional chrome taps and a shower attachment, a basin set in a vanity unit, and a WC. The décor is particularly elegant, featuring intricate panelling, attractive floor tiles, and bold shades of navy blue.
There are three generously proportioned bedrooms; the two double bedrooms are situated at the front of the property, with one offering a fitted wardrobe and an ensuite finished with a rainfall shower and hexagonal tiles.

OUTSIDE:

To the front of the property, a recently laid gated driveway provides parking for up to ten cars and includes a 17 ft. insulated cabin, currently used as an office/music room.

To the rear of the property, the garden enjoys a southerly-facing position, featuring a barbecue area accessed via the conservatory or the stable door. Beyond this, the garden is mainly laid to lawn, bordered by established shrubs, with pathways leading to another seating area and a hot tub, which will be included in the sale of the property. This special position overlooks paddocks and is discreetly hidden by natural bamboo.
