About
Property Description This impressive five-bedroom detached home in Houston has been significantly enhanced through a professional two-storey side extension and a rear conservatory, creating masses of additional accommodation and exceptional living space throughout.
The property offers versatile family living with generous room proportions, and a bright, flowing layout that maximises both comfort and functionality.
Entry is via a welcoming reception hallway with a convenient guest WC and two useful storage cupboards. The front-facing lounge is of generous size and features a gas fireplace as its focal point.
This space flows seamlessly into the formal dining area to the rear.
French doors from the dining room open directly into the conservatory, which benefits from a fully insulated roofline, making it a usable, year-round extension of the living space.
The kitchen is well equipped with a range of base and wall mounted units, along with integrated oven and hob.
Within the side extension lies a vast utility room that provides superb storage for coats, boots, and household appliances, including space for an American style fridge freezer.
Completing the ground floor is Bedroom Five, a very well-proportioned room converted from the garage and positioned just off the utility, with front facing aspect.
The upper level features a spacious landing that gives access to four excellent bedrooms.
The principal bedroom offers excellent fitted wardrobe space and boasts a vast ensuite bathroom, created by converting an original bedroom.
This ensuite includes a three-piece suite with a large walk-in shower unit.
Bedroom Two is a good-sized double room, while Bedroom Three has been cleverly split into two separate spaces, offering flexibility to use as two individual rooms, or easily returned to its original large layout.
Bedroom Four is a compact single room to the rear. The upper level is served by a modern three-piece family bathroom suite complete with an over-bath shower.
Externally, the property sits on a generous plot with excellent kerb appeal. A double monobloc driveway to the front provides ample off-street parking and is flanked by a neat laid lawn area.
The rear garden is South facing, ensuring sunshine throughout the day, and has been thoughtfully landscaped with a laid lawn, a separated stone chip area bordered by sleeper planks, mature trees, and a useful garden shed to the side, it is fully enclosed for privacy and security.
