THE PROPERTY
Midway along Weybourne Road, viewers will be delighted when they approach this family home as it has a pleasant kerb appeal. The property begins with a concrete imprinted full-width driveway which provides off road parking for two cars. Viewers will first enter the porch which is easily large enough for removing coats and shoes, before moving through into the main hallway. It is from here where viewers will recognise how well presented this home is. With a marvellous wood-effect flooring that continues through to the lounge, the hallway also has a doorway into the kitchen and staircase to the first floor.
The lounge is a very impressive space and begins with a wide area for dining before it narrows (parallel with the kitchen) into the main seating area. Originally two rooms, the owners did a fabulous job of opening the room out and removing the chimney breasts. They therefore have created a replica chimney breast in the centre of the wall to create a beautiful feature fireplace as well as maintaining the balance of the room. French patio doors lead out from the rear of the lounge to the garden. The kitchen is a superb space for those that love their cooking as, apart from the doorway, there are units and work surfaces galore. Checking the measurements below, the kitchen is a lot bigger than the appearance suggests as the space has been utilised so well.
Moving up to the first floor, the landing is well decorated and has doors leading off to all four bedrooms, and the family shower room. Bedroom One is a great sized double bedroom and, similarly to the kitchen, the owners have made great use of the space with fitted storage. In fact Bedroom Two is the only one of the four bedrooms not to have a fitted wardrobe, but it does have a storage space in the form of an under-stairs cupboard. Bedroom Two is a double bedroom even after space has been usurped to create the staircase for Bedroom Four. Bedroom Three is a very smart and spacious single room.
As mentioned, the door to Bedroom Four is on the first floor and once inside immediately provides the staircase up to the main bedroom. The loft conversion has been approved with Building Regulations. The room is a fantastic space for those who maybe have a teenage/younger family member that requires their own space. There are fitted wardrobes and a desk area, with natural light provided by two wonderful Velux-style roof windows.
The rear garden is absolutely sensational as the photographs suggest. The current owners have put a lot of time and effort into creating an outdoor space which is not only delightful to the eye, but also a superb place to relax and unwind as the surrounding area is peaceful. Hi quality paving slabs create the patio seating area and then form a path towards a second area the end of the garden. In between there are combinations of lawn, rockery, flower beds and a pond. There is even a classic feature lamppost to make the garden look as stunning by night as it does by day.
