A lasting first impression…

The Georgian-style frontage makes a striking first impression with its classic architectural design that emits a beautifully symmetrical look and portrays the character of this contemporary home from the outset. Set back from the road behind a brick wall with iron railings and matching gates, the property opens onto a block-paved driveway with ample parking.

The elegant entrance hallway provides a perfect greeting into the property with high ceilings and a drop pendant light immediately creating a sense of grandeur. An engineered oak wood flooring flows seamlessly throughout and into the main living areas whilst a staircase to the side gracefully ascends to the first floor.

Opulent retreats…

Twin snug rooms unfold to either side of the entrance hallway. To the right, this snug room is generously sized with fitted wall-mounted cabinetry finished in a grey wood-effect and features integrated lighting to create a warm, atmospheric feel. Cornice detailing and two sash windows to the front introduce a sense of timeless character to the modern space.

Opposite, the second snug mirrors the two traditional sash windows to the front and has a media wall with wall- mounted cabinets completed in a gloss finish surrounding the television point.

Continuing from here, the ground floor w.c. Is finished with grey tile flooring and a complementary split-face stone to splash areas. The suite includes a back-to-wall w.c., wash hand basin with illuminated mirror above and a heated towel rail.

Open-plan living at its finest…

The kitchen acts as an outstanding highlight, beautifully designed with a textured concrete-effect finish upon the full-height cabinetry and striking central island which is topped with marble-effect counters.

A feature wine-rack wall with spotlighting completes this impressive culinary setting.

Garage or transformed into a dedicated workspace offering the ideal home/work balance and allowing for your business to thrive just steps away from the comfort of your own home. Equally, it lends itself as a studio, showroom or even an annexe for guests or family.
