On a quiet, one way street this beautiful house with classic Georgian charm is in fact a spacious modern build with double glazing throughout and high grade insulation to achieve a very good BREEAM energy rating. Inside there’s an easy flow with crisp, contemporary and a quality finish incorporating a German Leicht kitchen and Villeroy & Boch sanitaryware throughout.
Ideal for entertaining, the open living/sitting room is a welcoming with solid engineered oak flooring and a large window at one end whilst tri-folding doors open to a Juliette balcony looking over the patio at the other. With a glass balustrade guests can enjoy the view even when sitting down, and a central staircase discreetly zones areas in which to work, rest or play.
Downstairs, the whole area benefits from underfloor heating below natural stone. There’s a useful cloakroom in the lobby leading to the fully fitted, streamlined kitchen which has three levels of lighting delivered by spotlights overhead, a hood and LED’s in the plinths, and quality integrated appliances include a gas hob and electric oven beneath the hood and underfloor heating. At the back, triple fold double glazed doors in the sociable dining area bring the outside in for an easy al fresco lifestyle in the lit, paved patio with room for a table and chairs.
On the first floor, two spacious double bedrooms with a chic contemporary shower room sits between them are bright and cheerful, with crisp decoration and compact built in wardrobes to fill.
