About the Home
An aesthetically delightful, double-fronted 4-bedroom home, The Bowyer provides growing families and second-steppers with substantial and flexible space to meet ever-evolving lifestyles. Several dual-aspect rooms, and a spectacular bay window in the dining area add character, while practical features such as three double-sized bedrooms and a utility room make this home ready for contemporary living.
The front door opens into the welcoming, centrally-located hallway, from which the ground floor radiates out. To one side of the home is the living room, which enjoys a dual aspect and provides dedicated space for relaxing and entertaining, and for children to play; the open-plan kitchen, dining and family area occupies the other side of the ground floor, and is designed to become the heart of the home.
The u-shaped kitchen incorporates a breakfast bar, to gather the family around for informal weekend brunches, or for cocktails with friends. The dining area boasts a feature bay window that extends into the rear garden, and provides ample space for a formal dining table; ideal for dinner parties, Sunday roasts and family games nights. French doors from the dining area open to the outside, inviting you into the garden to soak up the summer sunshine.
Adjoining the kitchen is a separate utility room, to keep laundry and cleaning essentials well-organised and out of sight, and conveniently, there is an understairs storage cupboard and a door to the outside. Completing the ground floor of The Bowyer is the cloakroom, accessed from the entrance hallway.
Upstairs are all four bedrooms, and the stylish family bathroom. Bedroom 1 benefits from an en-suite shower room, while bedroom 2 has a dual aspect Bedroom 4 is well-sized for use as a nursery or younger child’s room; alternatively, it would make a comfortable and private home office or hobby room.
