Situated within a prestigious West End development, we are delighted to offer for sale this substantial five bedroom executive detached family home, tucked away within a peaceful cul-de-sac.
Offering beautifully proportioned accommodation over two floors, the property has been thoughtfully upgraded by the current owners and is presented in excellent, move-in condition throughout.

Further benefits include gas central heating, double glazing and a substantial double garage.
Entry is gained via a welcoming entrance vestibule, which leads into the impressive reception hallway. A glazed door allows natural light into the hall, while the attractive staircase provides access to the upper floor. The hallway also benefits from a useful built-in storage cupboard and provides access to all of the ground floor accommodation.
Positioned to the rear of the property, the spacious lounge is a particularly inviting public room, with a wide triple aspect window formation filling the space with natural light and providing an attractive outlook over the garden. A contemporary living flame gas fire creates a stylish focal point, while the generous proportions provide ample space for a range of living furniture.
The formal dining room is positioned to the front of the property and is another generously proportioned room, offering excellent space for family dining and entertaining. This room is currently used as a playroom but could also be utilised as a fifth bedroom if required.
The heart of the home is the impressive open plan dining kitchen and family room. The recently installed Belgravia kitchen has been finished in sophisticated deep navy matt cabinetry, complemented by stone effect work surfaces and a comprehensive range of high quality integrated appliances. The excellent specification and thoughtful layout creates a stylish yet highly practical space, perfectly suited to modern family life.

French doors open directly onto the paved patio and rear garden, creating a seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.
A separate utility room has been fitted with matching quality cabinetry and stone effect work surfaces, creating a cohesive finish with the kitchen. The room provides excellent additional storage and laundry facilities, while a part glazed door gives direct access to the rear garden. A solid door gives access into the double garage.
