ANOTHER PROPERTY SOLD BY PUTTERILLS!
Built in 1964 by the renowned local architect Ray Gorbing for his own occupancy, a substantial, most impressive, 3,000 sq.ft. five bedroom detached family home of considerable style and distinction, occupying delightful grounds approaching a third of an acre with wrap-around gardens designed by Val Leal-Bennett from Colour Green Garden Design. In our opinion this delightful home occupies the finest position within this highly sought after Old Town turning, set back from the road at the end of a private drive shared by just one neighbouring property whilst situated just a short walk away from the Historic High Street and Lister Hospital.
The property remains sympathetic to the original design retaining an abundance of period features further enhanced and refurbished by the current owners in 2017-18 with highlights including a stunning open-plan kitchen/breakfast/dining room featuring a bespoke range of sleek kitchen units and quartz work surfaces by Kitchen Ergonomics whilst providing multi-aspect, panoramic views of the garden. In addition the impressive double height vaulted reception hallway features a floating bespoke oak staircase, contemporary glazed balustrades complementing the original exposed brickwork, a stunning full height picture window and views to the galleried landing above. The original family room now enjoys the benefit of a feature
part-vaulted sloping ceiling with velux windows providing a further ideal vantage point to enjoy views of the gardens.
Additional practical benefits include large double glazed windows and doors, each elevation equipped with discreet low level LED illumination for both convenience and security, warm air central heating served by two boilers and a generous double garage with workshop recess with a wide shingled frontage providing off road parking for up to four vehicles.
In full the light and airy open-plan accommodation comprises a wide welcoming full height reception hallway, modern fitted downstairs cloakroom/wc, comfortable sitting room, open-plan kitchen/breakfast/dining room, family room, utility room, first floor galleried landing leading to five bedrooms, four of which are excellent sized double rooms featuring the original cedar panelled vaulted ceilings with a most generous well proportioned four-piece en-suite bathroom to the master bedroom and a similar sized four-piece family bathroom. Viewing highly recommended.
