    Park up on the breadth of drive spanning the front, bordered by tidy strips of lawn. Space here for five or six cars, in addition to the single garage, secreted behind its British racing green-painted electronically-opening wooden doors.

    Such a private spot. Cross the plum-grey paving, up the trio of red-brick steps and beneath the sympathetically designed rustic-porch, before pushing open the front door.

    Welcome home. Light and cheerful, your neutral and airy entrance hall is illuminated via the glass-paned latticework of the traditional front door.

    Already, characterful touches reveal this home’s rich heritage: note the solid oak floor, austere picture rails, high ceilings and deep skirting boards; striking calling cards of a bygone era.

    Slip off your coat and gloves and hang them in the handy cloakroom, just ahead of you to the right. Space for all the family’s cumbersome winter coats here.

    Tucked away, a further bonus; your downstairs washroom complete with a low-level toilet and sink.

    From the entrance hall, solid oak doors lead temptingly off. Take the first door to the left to discover fine dining at its best. Beyond the rich oak, a typically grand 1930s dining room awaits. Bountiful bay windows beneath an archway draw your eye, inviting light flow through the room.

    Exposed beams dapple the ceiling in a further nod to the history of the home, whilst an open flame fire sits on a lustrous black hearth, creating a cosy ambience. The perfect formal entertaining space, gather the family around for Sunday dinner.

    Why not slip next door to your elegant sitting room, and put your feet up after a fantastic feast?

    Bright and cheerful throughout the day, light pours in through broad patio doors leading to your glorious garden, supplemented by light from the diamond-paned side window. Cosy and snug in the evenings, once the kids are in bed, hunker down on the sofa in front of the flickering flames of the fire and watch the latest Netflix release.

    With your working chimney in place, why not consider a log-burning stove for that rustic effect?

    As in each of your downstairs rooms, the charm of the 1930s era pervades in here by means of the traditional picture rail and high skirtings.

    Time to see what’s cooking. Follow us through to your contemporary kitchen.

    Sunny garden vistas greet through the large patio doors as you cross the threshold. An informal dining area makes full appreciation of these splendid views, with the option of taking your morning coffee or evening aperitif al fresco on the beautifully paved patio.

    A recent addition to the house, this kitchen blends traditional natural elements with modern, sleek touches, with truly harmonious results. So light and bright (two further windows supplement your grand patios) an array of snugly slotted wall and base units coat the walls of this neutrally decorated kitchen.

    Slice, dice and season your ingredients at your double central island, its butcher’s block wooden surfaces perfectly illuminated by the overhead spotlighting. Beneath the oatmeal-coloured, splash-back tiles, all your vital appliances are neatly housed: electric oven with gas hob, fridge-freezer and dishwasher. Soft close doors and drawers? Naturally.

    Keeping the house clutter free is your sparkling utility room. Amtico flooring and glossy splash-back tiles ensure ease of cleaning, whilst plumbing is on hand for your washing machine and dryer. There’s even space for a large chest freezer.

    Your overhead clothes dryer is a great space-saver; the home’s positive pressure airflow system continuously pushes air through the house, stopping condensation, keeping your drying space healthy and fresh.

    Perfect for depositing muddy boots after a walk, the utility room leads directly out onto the patio, and also into the garage; fully powered with light and electricity and with its own water tap.

    Returning to the entrance hall, sneak a quick peek at your useful study. Spacious and light, this versatile space could also make a delightful playroom for the children.

    Next door, discover your third bedroom, bright courtesy of its two windows and again enjoying built-in storage. With so many spacious bedrooms on offer, there will be no squabbling over ‘best bedroom’ – each has its own unique quirks.

    Directly opposite the staircase lies your fourth bedroom. The most modest of the four, this light and comfortable room is a most versatile space, with views again of the bowling-green smooth garden.

    It’s time to explore the verdant grounds beyond the window, come with us outside.

    From your immaculately kept stone patio – perfect for summer barbecues with family and friends – red bricked steps lead upwards. Summiting, you are greeted with a vast swathe of green stretching out and far back. Perfectly private and enclosed by established planting and mature shrubbery, you can enjoy summer escapades out here in total seclusion.

    Watch the springtime buds mature on the many rhododendrons, exploding in colour as the summer sun breaks through. Your emerald lawn is the perfect playing field for the children, who can kick a ball about, roly-poly and run around to their hearts’ content in total safety. There is even a lockable side gate for extra security.

    At the far end of the garden, a natural wilderness reveals nodding daffodils and bluebells in the spring time. Such a low maintenance garden, stash the mower in one of your two sheds and reserve the remaining space for sun loungers and picnic boxes…perfect for watching the sun set on those balmy summer evenings, glass of wine in hand.
