Known for its delightful blend of bars, restaurants, and cultural landmarks such as the cathedral, Minster Hall, Stowe Pool, and Beacon Park, the area provides a rich living experience.

Description Of Property
Upon entering this remarkable home, you are immediately impressed by the grandeur of the hallway, adorned with hardwood flooring, oak doors, and a statement staircase. The thoughtful design extends to a guest cloakroom for added convenience and a nearby storage cupboard.
To the right, a versatile study/snug provides a comfortable space that overlooks the front and side of the property, offering flexibility for work or cozy evenings in front of the TV.
Passing through double doors on the left, the drawing room unveils a spacious area filled with natural light from the bay window, and the central coal fireplace adds a touch of warmth and character to the room.
Accessible from the drawing room via double doors, the dining room awaits, with patio doors seamlessly connecting the indoor space to the covered patio in the newly turfed rear garden - a perfect setting for both formal and casual family dining.
The kitchen/breakfast room, accessible from either the dining room through a single door or the hallway through double doors, stands as the central hub of the house. Its elegant design features light cabinetry, contrasting worktops, and tiled flooring. The inclusion of an island with built-in seating enhances its functionality and appeal. Top-tier appliances, including a double oven, microwave oven, and induction hob with an overhead extractor, contribute to the modern and sophisticated atmosphere. The adjacent space, illuminated by natural light from patio doors, serves as a comfortable seating area or additional dining space for family gatherings.
Continuing the seamless flow, the utility room, an extension of the kitchen, maintains the same quality cabinetry and includes a sink. Its practical design offers space for essential appliances like a washing machine and tumble dryer, with easy access to the side of the property.
Ascending to the first floor, five generously sized bedrooms unfold, each carefully designed for comfort and functionality. The principal bedroom, distinguished by its size and elegance, features a walk-in wardrobe providing ample storage space. The ensuite bathroom complements the luxurious feel with a bathtub, shower cubicle, sink, and WC.
Bedrooms two and three also stand out with the added luxury of walk-in wardrobes and individual ensuites, complete with a shower cubicle, WC, and sink.
Bedrooms four and five, also generously proportioned, overlook the serene rear of the property and come equipped with their own fitted wardrobes for convenient storage.
Completing the first-floor layout is the family bathroom, a well-appointed space featuring a bathtub, shower cubicle, sink, and WC.
Garden And Grounds
Approaching the property via the private road, a welcoming block-paved walkway flanked by well-manicured lawn areas on either side leads gracefully to the front door, creating a charming entrance. On the right-hand side of the house, a block-paved driveway provides ample parking space, extending toward the detached double garage. The garage, situated separately from the main house, offers not only parking convenience but also additional storage capacity.
The rear garden, now newly turfed, is surrounded by mature trees and hedges, forming a private retreat. A covered patio area beckons for alfresco dining and serves as an ideal space for family gatherings and summer entertaining. The lush lawn adds a fresh and vibrant touch to the landscape, perfect for those who appreciate a more natural and inviting garden.
