PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Built in 1952, Summit is an individual detached property with a wealth of character and charm. Having been extended at the rear, the property offers further development potential, subject to relevant planning permission. A brick arched recessed porch leads you to the front door and into the entrance hall with stair access and cloakroom. The original herringbone flooring runs through from the hall and continues into both the sitting room and dining room. The sitting room has triple aspect with lovely views all around. It has an inset log burner and there are french doors which lead you directly into the garden. The kitchen breakfast room has a lovely terracotta tiled floor and a beautiful decorative sink overlooks the garden. There is a separate utility room with back door. The dining room overlooks the front of the house and there is a serving hatch through to the kitchen. Next to the dining room is bedroom 4 but could also serve as an office/study. Upstairs a window on the landing offers fabulous field views and beyond. The main bedroom suite has a dressing room, incorporating a shower and built in wardrobes. The room then leads into the bedroom area with garden views and a large eaves storage cupboard. There are 2 further double bedrooms both with built in storage. Along the landing is the airing cupboard which houses the gas fired boiler and water tank. The family bathroom is a white suite and there is a bath with overhead shower. The property benefits from UPVC cottage style windows throughout

The front is hedged and there is a pretty lawned area with some low trees and shrubs. There is a detached single double length garage with an up and over front door and an additional side door.
A side gate on the right takes you to the rear garden which is spectacular. Mature trees give a park-like feel and hedging to all sides offer total privacy.
