282A London Road is an impressive five-bedroom detached home, offering nearly 2,500 sq ft of elegant accommodation arranged over two light-filled floors. The exterior features attractive brick and rendered elevations, while inside the property is finished with contemporary fittings throughout.

The heart of the home is the open-plan sitting area, dining area and kitchen, which extends to 36ft across the back of the home, and opens onto the southwest-facing garden via French doors and bi-folds. Wooden parquet flooring and recessed LED lighting add to the warm yet contemporary feel, while further attractive features include a feature fireplace and built-in cupboard storage. The kitchen itself has shaker-style units in grey, a central island with a breakfast bar, a butler sink and integrated appliances, including dual ovens and an induction hob with an extractor hood. The adjoining utility room provides further space for home appliances and storage.

Additionally, the ground floor has a useful private study for home working, and a gym, which could be used as a family room in which to relax. The central staircase leads to a galleried first-floor landing, off which there are five immaculate double bedrooms. These include the generous principal bedroom with its full-height windows, fitted wardrobes and en suite shower room with a walk-in shower, as well as a connecting door to one of the additional bedrooms, which could be used as a dressing room if required. One further bedroom is en suite, while the first floor also has a family bathroom.
