An exciting and extremely rare opportunity to purchase a detached traditional home in this very desirable section of Woodlands Road, being sold with no upward chain. Like many homes in this delightful village, the property has not been on the market for many years and has been treasured by the sellers, who have lovingly cared for this property.

The house benefits from several historic extensions, which have substantially enlarged the footprint beyond that of many other three-bedroom properties. Yet, there remains plenty of scope for future developments and additions, subject to relevant permissions.

The ground floor has excellent room sizes, including a large through lounge leading onto a study area at the rear. Adjoining the living room is a spacious extended kitchen/diner, which in turn is adjacent to a large lobby area and utility room.

This layout is incredibly conducive to making it open plan, should purchasers desire.

On the first floor, the extensions continue, resulting in three spacious double bedrooms and a light and bright shower room.

Outside, there is a superb family-friendly garden at the rear. It is extensive in size and directly borders woodland at the far end, which makes for an incredibly private and tranquil backdrop.

The property is approached from the road via a tarmacadam driveway that can accommodate around three cars and leads to the integral garage. The garage is larger than a standard single, accessed via an up-and-over door at the front and benefits from power, lighting, a water supply and an internal door from the utility room.


Entrance
From the driveway, a sturdy porch with a wall light provides access to the hallway beyond. The latter is a welcoming reception hall that is generously sized, with stairs rising to the first floor, wall lights and doors providing access to the living room and kitchen.


Living room
The excellent bay-fronted living room is remarkably spacious and has a brick fireplace at one end, along with wall lights and sliding patio doors leading to a study area at the rear.


Study
The study area offers a pleasant space to work, with lovely views of the garden and features a built-in desk, storage and patio doors leading outside.


Kitchen
The ground floor benefits from a good-sized kitchen that has been extended in the past to include a breakfast area. It comprises matching wall and base units and marble-effect work surfaces with retro tiling for splashbacks.

Integrated appliances include a built-in double oven and hob with an extractor above, a dishwasher, an understairs cupboard, a window to the rear aspect and a door leading to the neighbouring utility room.


Utility room
The spacious utility room has wall and base units, work surfaces, a wall-mounted Worcester boiler, a door to the garden and internal doors accessing the garage and downstairs WC.


Bedrooms one, two and three
The first-floor accommodation comprises three double bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes and serviced by a spacious and light shower room.

Bedroom one is a very pleasant bay-fronted room overlooking the leafy street and complete with fitted furniture along one wall.

Bedroom two is a generously sized double room that has been substantially extended in the past over the garage, while bedroom three is another spacious double room that looks out across the rear garden and the woodland beyond.


Shower room
The shower room is a nice shape and size, offering lots of scope to accommodate both a shower and a bath if required. It currently comprises a double shower cubicle backed by panelling, a pedestal washbasin, a low-level WC and two frosted windows that flood the room with light.

There is also a loft hatch with a pulldown ladder that provides access to the roof space.


Garden
The property benefits from excellent outdoor space that has something to offer everyone, including keen gardeners and families with children. The extensive rear garden stretches a long way back from the house and culminates in a lovely, wooded area at the far end, which could be accessed directly by adding a garden gate if desired.

The garden is full of mature plants and trees and comprises a paved patio leading to a long lawn with a pathway providing access to the far end. Halfway down the garden, there is an area of hardstanding ideal for housing a shed.

The property has mains gas, electricity, and water.
