Hidden depths.
Modest in appearance from the street, this handsome double-fronted home reveals considerably more space than its frontage might suggest. Extended upwards and thoughtfully reconfigured over time, it now provides generous and highly adaptable accommodation across two floors, complemented by a landscaped garden and a substantial garden studio.
The restrained symmetry of the original house remains evident from the front, with a central entrance flanked by broad bay windows. A porch opens into the hallway, from which the ground-floor accommodation fans out in either direction.
This is a house particularly well suited to changing needs. The two bay-fronted rooms sit either side of the hallway and are currently arranged as a bedroom and family room, although either could readily serve as an additional reception room or bedroom.
Much of everyday life takes place towards the rear of the house. Extending to more than 31ft, the kitchen and dining room forms a generous, sociable space, with oak cabinetry, a range of fitted appliances and bifold doors opening directly onto the garden. There is ample room for a large dining table, while a separate utility room provides useful additional storage and workspace.
Alongside, a playroom flows into the main sitting room, creating another substantial sequence of living space. Bifold doors once again draw the garden into the room and provide an easy transition outside during the warmer months. A contemporary family bathroom completes the ground floor.
Upstairs accommodates two further bedrooms and a shower room. The principal bedroom is particularly generous and has a south-easterly aspect over the rear garden. Storage has been incorporated extensively throughout the first floor, both within cupboards and the eaves, together with a useful walk-in attic space.
The house has been extensively reconfigured and refurbished in recent years, with technology incorporated into its day-to-day running. Heating and smart lighting can be controlled remotely, while solar panels currently benefit from a feed-in tariff.
Outside, the rear garden extends to approximately 60ft and has been landscaped to provide a series of practical spaces for relaxing and entertaining. A broad terrace adjoins the house, beyond which lawn is framed by mature planted borders.
At the far end of the garden is perhaps the property’s most unexpected addition. A substantial detached studio has been fitted with heating and air conditioning and is currently home to a full-size golf simulator. Its scale and separation from the main house give it considerable versatility, whether retained for recreation or adapted as a gym, studio or substantial home-working space.
To the front, the driveway provides off-road parking for two cars, with gated access continuing alongside the house to the rear garden.
What makes this house particularly appealing is the contrast between first impression and reality. Behind its compact, symmetrical frontage lies a home of surprising scale: interconnected living spaces, bedrooms on both floors and rooms capable of changing purpose as family life evolves. The garden studio adds another dimension again – currently somewhere to practise a swing, but ultimately a space whose use is limited more by imagination than convention.
