Owner's Comment
"We have lived in this delightful house since 1997. This property is definitely about location, location, location. The children have all now moved away and although our heart remains with the house, our head is telling us that it is time to downsize. We know that anyone buying this property will have a happy future there.”

Introduction
A notable feature of the well presented accommodation is the sizeable self contained lower ground flat that could be utilised as an annexe or let to provide useful additional income. The principal house offers a spacious lounge, an open plan kitchen/dining room, an inner hall/study area and three generous bedrooms together with a loft room. A large sun terrace approached from the dining room has wonderful views over the rear garden. Holly Hill was originally developed in the early 1960's and is an established attractive neighbourhood with a variety of impressive detached houses and has proved ever popular with generations of homebuyers due to the close proximity of the sports centre and golf course.

Description
The front door opens to the spacious hallway that creates a welcoming entrance to the property and has quality bamboo wood flooring and a spindled staircase ascends to the first floor. A cloakroom is positioned under the stairs. The kitchen is of a generous size with an extensive range of wall and base units that have granite work surfaces incorporating a sink unit and a mixer tap. Fitted appliances include an oven/grill, a four ring gas hob with an extractor hood and a dishwasher. An open aspect creates a pleasing social flow to the dining room with a double glazed sliding door leading to the large decked sun terrace. An open double doorway links to the elegant lounge that features an oriel bay window also enjoying a leafy outlook and there is a low level open hearth. A small paned door opens to the inner hall that serves as a study area where a spindled staircase descends to the basement flat. The first floor landing has a linen cupboard and a concealed staircase allows access to the loft bedroom.
The master bedroom is of an enviable size and boasts stunning views over the rear garden.

Extension-Annexe
This is an outstanding feature of the property and comprises a spacious lounge/dining room with an open aspect to the kitchen. A sliding double glazed door permits access to the patio whilst a side door offers independent access from the main house and therefore provides the flexibility for letting this part of the house. The kitchen has a range of wall and base units that have complementary work surfaces that incorporate a sink unit and a mixer tap. A matching island unit comprises a four ring gas hob with an extractor hood over, plumbing for a washing machine is installed and there is an oven/grill.

The remainder of the front garden is laid to lawn with shrubs and trees that provide a high degree of natural privacy. A pedestrian gate found to the left of the house leads to the rear garden. A notable feature is the large sundeck that has enchanting views and is the perfect place for al fresco dining and relaxing on sunny days and warm evenings. The remainder of the garden is predominantly laid to lawn with shrubs and trees that ensure an excellent degree of natural privacy and create an attractive outlook.
