About
Property Description This substantial five bedroom detached home occupies a generous plot on Cormorant Avenue and delivers excellent family accommodation across two floors.
The original build retains a practical and well proportioned layout, with formal and informal living spaces, a well equipped kitchen, and five good sized bedrooms upstairs.
Entry is via a welcoming entrance vestibule, with a guest WC conveniently located just off.
The large formal lounge sits at the front of the home and opens through sliding partition doors into the dining room at the rear, creating flexible entertaining space.
Adjacent to this is a second, more informal sitting room to the front of the property.
The kitchen is generously proportioned, fitted with a range of base and wall mounted units plus integrated appliances, and is supported by a handy utility room.
Upstairs, the five bedrooms comprise a principal bedroom with a three-piece ensuite shower room, three further good double bedrooms, and one quite large single bedroom.
Bedrooms two and three benefit from fitted wardrobes. A generous three-piece family bathroom completes the accommodation. Outside, the property sits within generous garden grounds.
The rear garden is highly private, enclosed by mature hedging, and features a laid lawn, patio, and decking area. To the front, the garden is laid to lawn with accented shrubbery and mature planting.
A double monobloc driveway leads to the attached double garage, which also has a rear door providing direct access to the garden.
