About
This much improved and vastly extended five-bedroom detached home has been thoughtfully upgraded by the current owners to create a spacious and versatile family residence.
Tucked away in a private position behind gated access and occupying a plot of almost a quarter of an acre, the property offers excellent privacy while still being conveniently located in the highly sought-after area of Old Shaw.
Internally, the accommodation is exceptionally flexible, making it ideal for modern family living.
There are five generously proportioned bedrooms, along with a ground floor shower room, a well-appointed family bathroom, and two en-suite shower rooms, offering convenience and comfort for all members of the household.
The kitchen/breakfast room is a real heart of the home, providing a bright and sociable space for everyday living and informal dining.
Throughout the property, there is ample storage, ensuring the home remains tidy and functional at all times.
Externally, the house is set within well-maintained gardens, providing pleasant outdoor spaces for relaxing and entertaining.
A large driveway offers parking for numerous vehicles, leading to a detached double garage.
Attached to the garage is an additional room, currently used as a gym, but offering excellent potential for conversion into an annex, home office, or studio.
There is also a separate boiler room, accessed from the garden, which houses a modern and efficient hot water tank.
This, coupled with the solar panels further enhances the home’s practicality and energy efficiency.
Situated in one of the area's most desirable locations, the property is close to a range of local amenities including reputable schools, shops, pubs, restaurants, and open green spaces.
Excellent road links are nearby, making this an ideal base for commuters.
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a substantial and adaptable family home in a prime location, offering both space and future potential in abundance.
