4 bed detached house for sale

The Fouracres, Wakefield, West Yorkshire WF1

Extended from its original design and presented to a show-home standard throughout, this impressive four-bedroom home combines stylish interiors with a layout that works brilliantly for modern family life.

The real centrepiece is undoubtedly the extended open-plan kitchen, dining and family room across the rear. At over eight metres in length, it brings together three distinct areas without losing the feeling of one sociable space. Four rooflights bring additional natural light into the extension, while wide bi-folding doors open directly onto the rear garden.

The contemporary grey kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of units and a substantial central breakfast bar with seating, alongside an AEG induction hob, canopy hood and double oven, integrated fridge freezer and integrated dishwasher. There's plenty of room beyond for a full dining table and a separate sitting area, complete with its own built-in media wall – a space that's just as well suited to a busy Tuesday evening as it is to having everyone round at the weekend.

Importantly, going open-plan hasn't meant sacrificing a separate reception room. The living room sits to the front of the property and features a walk-in bay window together with a built-in media wall incorporating shelving, a recessed TV position and integrated electric fire. Double doors provide a direct connection through to the main family space when wanted.

The entrance hall provides access to both reception areas, a useful ground-floor WC, understairs storage and the integral garage, which has power, lighting, an electric roller shutter door and provision for a washing machine.

Upstairs are four bedrooms, with the principal bedroom featuring fitted mirrored wardrobes and its own en-suite shower room. Bedrooms two and four share a Jack and Jill en-suite shower room, while bedroom three overlooks the rear garden. A separate family bathroom completes the first floor – useful bathroom provision for a four-bedroom household and hopefully a little less queuing in the morning.

Outside, a double driveway provides off-street parking and leads to the integral garage, with a low-maintenance slate-chipped garden alongside.

To the rear, the garden has been thoughtfully landscaped with ease of upkeep in mind. Paved areas provide space for outdoor seating alongside artificial lawn, slate-chipped borders and a timber store. The bi-folding doors provide a natural connection back into the extended family room, while exterior lighting gives the garden plenty of appeal after dark too.
