Welcome to Porch House. . .Step inside through beautiful centre-parting sliding doors into a spacious entrance hall. To the right is the lounge, bathed in natural light courtesy of a large bow window, which overlooks the mature shrubs, trees and planting in the front garden. At the centre is a fireplace equipped with a Jetmaster open fire creating the perfect setting for cosy evenings as the seasons change.
Continuing through the home, the dining room offers space for a large dining table, making it the perfect setting for entertaining family and friends. An elegant archway leads into a cosy snug, where floor-to-ceiling windows and wooden French doors frame the garden and create a seamless connection between indoors and out. Cleverly designed, this versatile space also accommodates a desk area, making it ideal for those working from home.
Adjacent to the dining room is the kitchen, which features a convenient serving hatch. Beautifully preserved in its original 1970s style, the kitchen is immaculately presented with handle less cabinetry, retro tiling and a central island that comfortably seats six, providing an informal dining space, the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee whilst enjoying the lovely garden views. Appliances include a central hob with an extractor fan, a separate two-ring gas burner and a double Neff oven with grill. There is space for a dishwasher and fridge freezer, while the adjoining pantry provides room for an additional appliance along with useful shelving for storage.
Leading off the inner hallway is a practical utility room, complete with a second sink, cupboard storage and space for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, with a separate W.C next door.
The property has been extended to the side, creating a substantial additional living space that could easily be utilised as a self-contained annexe. The family room within the extension is currently used as a music, games and hobby room, with a side door providing access to a patio area and the garden beyond, while also leading to the conservatory.
Ascending the striking spiral staircase, the landing is filled with natural light from a large Velux window. Off the landing are two bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a music studio, which could be converted into a bathroom to serve the annexe. Bedroom two is a generously proportioned room with delightful views across the garden, the perfect place to enjoy breakfast in bed. An inner hallway has been thoughtfully transformed into a charming library, linking the extension to the main house.
Bedroom three enjoys views to the front through a bow window. Wooden louvred doors provide timeless character while offering practical storage above a curtained hanging space.
The main landing gives access to a further three bedrooms. Bedroom one benefits from fitted wardrobes and a built-in dressing table with sink, creating an ideal space to prepare for the day while enjoying views over the garden. Bedroom four also overlooks the garden and features two built-in storage cupboards together with a wash basin. Bedroom six is situated at the front of the property and would make an excellent nursery, child's bedroom or home office.
Conveniently there are two bathrooms, and a separate W.C. The shower room features a charming porthole window, adding a touch of character, while the main family bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower over, a bidet, and a vanity unit with integrated wash basin and useful storage.
The garage can be accessed from both the front and rear of the property and benefits from a separate workshop. The workshop offers excellent potential to be converted into a kitchen to serve the self-contained annexe, creating direct access into the adjoining family room.
The GardensThe south-facing garden is a true sanctuary, thoughtfully divided into a series of distinct areas to explore, each surrounded by mature trees, established shrubs and an abundance of colourful planting. A sweeping lawn leads to a peaceful seating area beneath the graceful canopy of a silver birch, where the fragrance of roses fills the air. Tucked away in one corner is a dedicated wilding area, carefully created to encourage insects and other wildlife.
The patio provides ample space for outdoor furniture, making it the perfect setting for al fresco dining, and is complete with a traditional brick-built barbecue. The conservatory opens directly onto the patio, offering delightful views across the garden.
A charming fish pond draws the eye towards the garden's centrepiece, an exuberant display of colourful, scented planting that provides year-round interest. Beyond this, four beautifully arranged fruit and vegetable beds have been designed in a traditional potager style, offering the perfect opportunity to embrace kitchen gardening and enjoy an abundance of home-grown produce.
To the side of the property is a log store, and two sheds for gardening equipment.
The front has been beautifully maintained, with shrub borders and a neatly manicured duck-shaped hedge creating an attractive first impression. A sweeping gravel driveway provides ample off-road parking and can comfortably accommodate up to six cars.
