This handsome, beautifully presented detached family house is tucked away on a secluded plot towards the end of this no-through road of similarly substantial homes. The property was originally constructed in the 1980s and has good sized and well-proportioned rooms conveying an extremely light and spacious feel throughout. The views towards Hockley Golf Course to the front are really lovely, and the property has that rare advantage of good-sized gardens to both the front and rear totalling about 1/3rd of an acre.

The spacious entrance hall, accessed via an inner porch with WC off, is an inviting space and gives access to the principal reception rooms. The good-sized sitting room is incredibly light courtesy of windows to the front and side as well as French doors to the garden at the rear. Adjacent to this at the rear is a well-appointed study. The heart of the house is the most impressive U-shaped arrangement of rooms incorporating the kitchen, dining room, family room and snug. A lovely, wooden floor ties the whole of this very bright and appealing suite of rooms together. The traditional kitchen is arranged around an attractive Aga and there is a good utility room off to one side as well as the appealing snug to the front. The dining area and family space each have sliding doors opening out to the rear patio, and skylights ensure the whole area is flooded with natural light.

Stairs from the hall lead up to the first floor where there are four double bedrooms. The main bedroom suite is an excellent size, with plenty of wardrobe space and an en-suite shower room. All of the other bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and there is an attractive family bathroom for them to share.

The house benefits from a double garage and plenty of off-road parking on the block-brick driveway which is flanked by well-tended lawns. There is other parking on an area of hardstanding alongside the sizeable private garden on the other side of the access lane to the front - a hidden gem which is mainly laid to lawn. The rear garden is very attractively landscaped and terraced, with a large patio across the rear of the house, and other seating areas dotted around to catch the sun at different times of the day. A summer house and an arbour provide shelter and the lawn is interspersed by well-stocked flower and vegetable beds.
