To the rear the property has been extended to form a games room which is currently used as a workshop/storeaccessible from the existing double garage.
To the first floor the landing leads to four bedrooms, en-suite shower room and a principal family bathroom.
Outside the property is set back from Cotes Road with electric gated access with numerous car standing with gravel driveway, main double garage and further concrete sectional separate garage with double gated access to a further gravelled driveway and lean-to store.
The gardens have been comprehensively landscaped and envelop the property with flagstone patios, lawns, pergola, hedgerows and fencing to boundaries.
It should be noted that there has been various schemes produced by architect consultants HSSP creating various configurations of extending the existing accommodation to form a further double garage, en-suites and dressing rooms and also reconfiguring the downstairs accommodation.
There are also plans to create additional dwellings or even demolishing the property due to its current sizeable plot.
These ideas are available via Bentons if required but it should be noted that none of these current ideas have planning permission.
