Description

A beautifully presented period property with an attractive Georgian frontage in the popular location of Oare, with fantastic views over the creek and a special historic story to tell

A charming property set over three floors and with five bedrooms, this is a house with great character and space and has been sympathetically decorated throughout to provide a large beautifully presented family home which is ready to move straight into.

Throughout the property there is an abundance of original features such as wooden floors, beautiful fireplaces and sash windows, yet this seamlessly blends with updated modern areas that a busy life demands.

This property has a unique feature, which is something of a conversation piece! In the sitting room is a fine example of some listed French scenic wallpaper. Put up in 1836, the current owners had it restored in 2012 which now beautifully blends old and new in this delightful room. The national significance of the paper is recognised in the Grade ll* designation of Homeside and will forever remain as is being one of the last samples in a domestic setting.

Immediately from the kerb you will appreciate the handsome Georgian frontage, and this part of the house was updated in 1823. The original back part of the house was built in the 16th century.

Enter into the welcoming hallway and turn left into the cosy but spacious kitchen. This was updated when the property was extended, in 2012, and was installed by Benchmarx, with a double sized oven and gas hob, plenty of cream coloured Shaker style units and hardwood worksurfaces, with space for a dining table too.

Opposite from the hallway is the separate dining room, with wooden floors, panelled walls and fireplace.

The living room is beautifully presented with the colourful historic wallpaper, wooden floors, fireplace and French doors opening up to the garden beyond.

On the ground floor there is also a side access door to the garden, linen cupboard, utility area which incorporates a downstairs shower room with a large shower and a wc. There is a door leading to a cellar with tongue and groove flooring which provides plenty of storage.

Upstairs, the landing has a lovely picture window giving a first glance of the delightful views over the creek.

On this floor there is the family bathroom with corner bath, and two double bedrooms. There is a large impressive upstairs lounge with a floor to ceiling sash window to admire the garden view below.

A staircase leads to a very private large double bedroom with vaulted ceilings, beams and fitted wardrobes

Go to the third floor and these provide the best far reaching views across the creek and beyond. On this floor there are two bedrooms, one is double with a built in wardrobe, the other bedroom has the benefit of a recently installed en suite shower.

Outside, to the front of the property is a pretty wrought iron fence, with a paved front garden framed by hedges, with side access to the rear garden.

The rear garden is fully enclosed by a fence on one side and a walled boundary to the other and is a peaceful private space. Enjoy sitting on the large patio area overlooking the lawn area with flower beds or in the gravel area where the garden furniture is currently place. There is a shed for further storage.


Parking: Unrestricted street parking.

Council Tax: Band D

Services: Mains Gas, Electric, Water & Waste.

The current owners received a grant to fully restore the French scenic wallpaper, and so requires no ongoing maintenance.
