This remarkable, halls-adjoined family home is situated within a popular backwater in Southborough. Having been extended by its current owners, it now offers excellent accommodation across three floors with four double bedrooms and spacious living accommodation. Its present owners have created a modern family home whilst retaining some of its delightful period features.
Set back from the road behind its walled front garden is this charming, bay fronted family home. Its attractive red brick and freshly re-pointed exterior entices you inside. You first step into a useful entrance porch with space for muddy boots, shoes and coats. From here the front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall with smart mosaic floor tiles. On your right is the spacious living room, enlarged by the sellers to create a fantastic all-round family room. Its bay front with double glazed sash windows and fitted shutters make for a characterful feature whilst there is a log burning stove adding warmth. Additional windows to the rear bring in further natural light. At the back of the house is the kitchen/dining room with its array of fitted cabinets, fitted appliances and large island adding additional worksurface space. It has the benefit of underfloor heating along with space for a large table and chairs. Windows look onto the garden whilst a door to the side gives garden access. Stairs with fitted carpet runners take you to the first-floor landing, from which there are three double bedrooms and family bathroom. The largest of the three is bay fronted and benefits from a bay window feature and handmade fitted wardrobes and additional storage. The family bathroom serves the three double bedrooms and has been fitted in recent years by the present owners. Its stunning finish includes brushed brass fittings and there is a bath with rain head shower, WC, wash basin with stone surround and heated towel rail. Underfloor heating completes the bathroom. A second flight of stairs leads you to the master suite within the converted loft space which was completed within the last two years. The current owners have left the option to choose a choice of flooring upon the purchaser's ownership for the stairs and second floor suite. The bedroom is a fantastic size with two large Velux windows with fitted blinds and additional window with shutters ensuring the room is light and airy. There is space for a large double bed along with additional furniture if desired. From the bedroom there is an excellent dressing room with ample space for wardrobes and dressing table. This in turn leads to the en-suite shower room. The en-suite has been tastefully designed and features lovely, brushed brass fittings. There is a wide walk-in rain head shower, WC, wash basin with stone surround and storage along with heated towel rail and underfloor heating. Outside a low maintenance, westerly facing garden is a real sun trap. It has secure fence borders along with artificial lawn and a paved, gated side access.
