The property 36 Hedley Road is a rendered family home offering light-filled accommodation arranged over two floors, the traditional exterior giving no clue to the sensitively modernised and extended interior which has been configured to provide a lovely family and entertaining space. The ground floor accommodation flows from a welcoming entrance hall and briefly comprises a large 26 central sitting room with front aspect window, exposed wooden flooring and feature corner fireplace with inset woodburning stove opening into a spacious L-shaped kitchen/dining room. The kitchen offers a range of contemporary wall and base units, quartz worktops and splashbacks and modern integrated appliances and the dining area has space for a good-sized table and bi-fold doors to the rear terrace. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a neighbouring fitted utility room with a glazed door to the rear terrace and an inter-connecting laundry room with contemporary cloakroom/shower room and a door to the external store, suitable for use as a single garage if required.

On the first floor the property provides a generous principal bedroom with modern suite shower room, three further well-proportioned double bedrooms, one with built-in storage and modern en suite shower room, and a contemporary fully tiled family bathroom.

Outside

Outside Having plenty of kerb appeal, the property is set behind low-level walling topped with wrought iron railings and is approached over low maintenance paved front garden incorporating a side driveway with private parking in front of the external store/potential garage. The well-maintained enclosed garden to the rear is laid to level lawn interspersed with mature topiary and bordered by raised shrub beds and features a large, paved terrace, ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining, a central paved path leading to a large outhouse at the end of the garden. Accessed through patio doors, the outhouse offers three rooms, one with a kitchenette, together with a useful cloakroom, the whole suitable for a variety of uses including as potential annexe or office accommodation if required.

Situation
