Freehold. Council Tax Band E. EPC D.
THE PROPERTY Brushwood is a striking, contemporary four bedroom home that combines intelligent design with the warmth and practicality of a family residence. Recently renovated and modernised throughout, this stunning property offers flexible accommodation across two floors, currently configured to provide a self-contained one-bedroom apartment on the ground floor, with separate family living to the upper level.
From the moment you step inside, you can see that every detail has been considered. The layout has been thoughtfully reconfigured to meet the needs of modern living - whether that means space for growing families, a separate retreat for dependent relatives, or even potential rental income. The sleek interiors blend light-filled open-plan areas with private, restful rooms, and the use of premium finishes throughout creates a calm and contemporary feel.
GROUND FLOOR Step through the front door and into a home that has been completely reimagined for modern living. A welcoming entrance hallway provides access to both levels of the home, and it is here you'll find the interconnecting door to the ground floor - currently blocked off to create a fully self-contained one-bedroom annexe, but easily reinstated if preferred.
This thoughtful design offers a rare opportunity for true multi-generational living, independent guest accommodation, or income potential via long- or short-term letting.
The ground floor is currently arranged as a self-contained one-bedroom apartment with its own private entrance. It includes a versatile reception room, currently used as a bedroom/sitting room, which enjoys a pleasant outlook to the front. There is also a kitchenette/utility area, a double bedroom, and a modern shower room. Designed with flexibility and privacy in mind, this space is ideal for multi-generational living or guest use and could easily be reconnected to the main house via the original (currently blocked) internal door.
FIRST FLOOR Upstairs, the main living accommodation is a showcase of space and style.
A beautifully finished open-plan kitchen/dining/living area forms the heart of the home. The kitchen has been designed with both form and function in mind - featuring streamlined cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a central island with breakfast bar seating. The space flows effortlessly into a generous dining area and on into the main living room, where a feature fireplace and large windows create a warm, sociable hub.
A set of glazed doors opens directly from the kitchen onto a level patio terrace, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living - perfect for entertaining or relaxed family time.
Two generous bedrooms are also located on the first floor. The principal bedroom offers superb views and built-in wardrobes. The second bedrooms is perfect for children, guests, or a home office, depending on your needs. A smartly appointed family bathroom completes the floor, featuring a contemporary suite with both bath and separate shower.
OUTSIDE Brushwood offers a private and well-considered outdoor space designed for both practicality and enjoyment. A large, level patio terrace flows directly from the living space - a seamless extension of the home that's perfect for outdoor dining, morning coffee or entertaining. With a sheltered orientation and open aspect, it creates a wonderful backdrop to everyday life, offering indoor-outdoor living at its best.
The garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to provide a balance of usable lawn, planted borders, and structured seating area. A section of covered outdoor storage provides ideal space for bikes, bins, tools or outdoor furniture - neatly tucked away but easily accessible.
Ample off-road parking to the front ensures practicality without compromise, and the home's elevated position offers a sense of privacy and outlook rarely found so close to town amenities. The Garage also provides extra space with interconnecting door and sink.
