Description
A handsome detached family home which has been extended and exceptionally well-maintained over the years to create this delightful family home of approx. 302sqm/3,291sqft. Complemented by a private, south facing garden of approx. 0.3 acres to the rear and a quiet and prestigious cul-de-sac setting off Torquay Road.
Set behind electric cast iron gates, a gravelled driveway leads the way to Inishowen, which sits well back from the road. Neatly clipped Buxus hedging delineate the driveway and sets the tone for the overall pristine nature of this delightful family home. Wooden shutters in a dove grey and a decorative bargeboard add further character and interest to the front façade.
The entrance hallway is bright thanks to a large, picture window overlooking the garden which reflects natural light. To the left is a dual aspect living room with solid oak flooring, bay window to the front and cast-iron fireplace with coal effect gas fire. To the right is the dining room with window seating, dado rail detail, oak flooring and polished mahogany fireplace with slate and brass inset decorated in warm rustic tones. The drawing room, in gentle olive tones, is a relaxing space with antique white marble fireplace creating an air of sophistication and grandeur. It is particularly bright given its dual aspect and opens out with a step down to the cedarwood “Amdega” garden room. The garden room enjoys a south facing orientation and is, in the true sense of the word, a sunroom. This double glazed room, is bright and airy, hand painted in white and reflects light into the drawing room.
An oak rail with steps from the hall leads to the kitchen. With hand painted wall and floor units, it is traditional in style with black granite worktop and antique effect hardware. The Italian marble tiled floor with decorative design inlay exudes a warm rustic note. The breakfast room enjoys a glazed wall overlooking the garden to the rear and opens to the family room. This room is extensively fitted with bespoke wall and floor presses and entertainment unit with smart cherrywood top. The utility room with good storage solutions and stainless steel sink leads via a door to the double garage.
There are four double bedrooms on the first floor. The main bedroom is a spacious double with air conditioning and French doors to a veranda providing views of the back garden. It enjoys a luxuriously appointed en-suite bathroom complete with marble encased “VILLEROY and BOCH” bath, wash hand basin in vanity unit and wc. Separate shower with “HANS GROHE” fittings. This room is bright and dual aspect. There are three further bedrooms all with en-suite shower rooms.
This is a most impressive home combining generous accommodation situated in a quiet, family friendly cul-de-sac with open green space to the front.
The gardens are undoubtedly an important feature of this home. They are the result of considered landscaping and years of nurturing and tending. The contrast of the clean lines of the horizontal surfaces: paved paths with brick inlay borders, pebbled driveway, terraces and lawns, with neatly clipped buxus hedges, balls and specimen bay leaf trees; really sets both the mood and tone.
To the front the garden creates a delightful entrance whilst providing providing ample car parking space. To the back the split-level garden provides a natural raised patio area with sandstone paviers framed by brick inlay borders. There are steps down to the lawned area flanked on either side by two bay leaf trees. There is a gravel flower bed in front of a groomed Lleylandia which provides a natural opaque wall for privacy. The gardens are well stocked with specimen bushes and flowering plants to include magnolia, bay leaf, copper beech, clematis to name a few. There is a gate to a side entrance.
