Full Property Details
This traditional, brick-built village house was one of four built in Ford Orchard in the 1970's and occupies the prime plot with extensive parking, a double garage and generous garden extending to the south and west of the house, with sunshine throughout the day. The original accommodation has been extended in more recent years to provide additional living space on both floors at one end and at the other, a versatile suite of downstairs rooms. This includes a morning room, or fifth bedroom, with an easy access wet room/shower opposite and a utility room or potential kitchen to one side, created within the original garage. With a door to outside, this suite would be great for later life or perhaps older children seeking some independence, or could be readily incorporated within the main accommodation and busy family life.
The generous living space is arranged around the large reception hall, which has a cloakroom to one side and plenty of cupboard storage. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted in a classic Shaker style with a large island unit and integral appliances including a double oven, hob with extractor hood over, a fridge and dishwasher. There is access to the morning room, with a patio door to the rear garden. The main reception room has a wood burner, enclosed in a Minster fireplace, as a focal point and at the other end, space for a large dining table and chairs. Beyond, the garden room extension has a triple aspect and is a beautifully light room from which the garden can be enjoyed all year round.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes and all a good size. The principal bedroom suite has a dressing room, with double doors leading out to a sunny balcony, and an en suite shower room. From the landing, the family bathroom has a pale cream suite, with a shower over the bath, and a separate WC.
The accommodation benefits from uPVC double glazing and gas central heating throughout and is well insulated, enhancing the comfort. On the rear roof elevation, there is an array of photo voltaic (PV/solar) panels, providing electricity for immediate use and the excess flowing into the national grid on a good tarriff.
On approach to the house, there is an extensive gravel parking area, with a double garage to one side and a garden and log store behind. The main garden is to the rear and side of the house and is principally laid to lawn with established flower and shrub borders.
