4 Bed Detached house Sold

12 Knapps Drive provides substantial and flexible family accommodation, now in need of updating, but with great potential to create a stunning modern family home to suit various living requirements. The house sits almost centrally in a plot exceeding 0.2 acres and from the first view, one appreciates a sense of space and solidity. A glazed porch area opens into the generous reception hall, off which to the front of the house is the sitting room with wood burner. Wooden bi-fold doors open into the dining room overlooking the rear garden. A glazed door leads to the sun room to the side of the house, with doors opening onto the terrace and garden beyond. To the other side of the dining room is the kitchen, with a wide window overlooking the garden and there is a pantry/store cupboard awaiting jars of home-made jam. Also on the ground floor is a large double bedroom/additional reception room overlooking the front garden, a generous bathroom with separate shower enclosure and a home office with direct access into the single garage with electric door. The superb laundry/utility room will appeal to every domestic goddess and there is a gardener's loo near the side exit for Mr McGregor.

Upstairs is a bathroom, along with a small double/spacious single bedroom. In addition, there is a double bedroom with 2 fitted wardrobes and wonderful views over the front garden and surrounding countryside. directly off this bedroom is another double bedroom with a built-in wardrobe and generous under eaves storage: perhaps an unconventional arrangement, a separate hall and doorway could be easily created to allow independent access to this room.

Outside - in addition to the generous driveway parking and single garage to the front of the property, behind the wooden gate to the left of the garage there is an additional single garage with further parking space. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with some shrubs and trees, and provides scope for the keen gardener. The generous front garden is laid to lawn, bordered by dense hedging and a mature magnolia tree. Directly opposite the property is a wide, open field and there are spectacular views towards the church and over the surrounding countryside.
