Property description

A period mid-terrace four bedroom house, with a separate home gym and a garden office, with gated driveway parking and a south facing rear garden, overlooking the village green in the village of Penn.

The stucco under slate period property offers nearly 2,800 sq. ft. of combined accommodation set over three floors. The front door with a glazed light under a bracket porch opens to an entrance hall with engineered wood flooring, high skirting boards, and a dado rail. A full turn staircase rises to the first floor and there is a cloakroom in the understairs space. Off the hall, an inner hallway leads to the kitchen/dining room and the over 20 ft. sitting room. This room has a canted bay overlooking the garden, a log burning stove set in an angled painted wooden mantel and surround, and a glazed built-in cupboard with shelves and lighting. The bespoke orangery, now used as a playroom, is part-panelled, and has a roof lantern and French doors to the garden. The house retains many original features including high ceilings and the 12-pane sash windows, many of which have been recently replaced, as has the roof lantern. The whole property has been modernised and recently repainted.

Kitchen/Dining Room

The kitchen/dining room is fitted with a range of handmade/hand painted units with granite worksurfaces, a built-in seating area with storage below, and an island unit with drawers and cupboards. Appliances include a Lacanche range cooker with five-ring gas hob and an extractor fan, an integrated dishwasher, and a fridge/freezer, and a Vaillant boiler which was replaced approximately 2 years ago. Additional features include a walk-in pantry, a butler’s sink with mixer tap, and a decorative radiator cover. Two sash windows overlook the driveway and village green beyond.

First and Second Floors

Stairs from the hallway, turn under a sash window and rise to the first floor. The principal bedroom has a canted bay of windows overlooking the garden, a corner fireplace, built-in wardrobes, and a recently refitted en suite. There are two further double bedrooms, a family bathroom and an airing cupboard has space for laundry appliances. Stairs to the second floor turn to form a mezzanine level, leading to a study area and fourth bedroom, with storage and Velux windows.

Outside

The property is approached via gates which open to a gravelled driveway providing parking for four cars. The rear garden faces southwest, enclosed by fencing and hedging and has undulating flower and shrub borders, raised vegetable beds, a garden shed, and a playhouse. There is also a home office with power, heating, and hard-wired broadband. A secure gate provides access to a double garage which has recently been converted to a fully insulated home gym and store.
