A detached, modern family home located within a substantial plot towards the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Horfield.
Ground Floor -
The property is entered via a handy entrance porch, which in turn leads directly into the entrance hall; providing access to the principle rooms, WC, and stairs rising to the first floor. An internal door opens from the hall into a bright, spacious front reception room with electric fireplace and bay window to front providing pleasant views across the front gardens and the adjacent Monks Park.
Towards the rear of the property, is an open-plan kitchen/dining space which has been tastefully modernised; providing ample space for a dining table, plus a modern kitchen comprising a range of wall and base-mounted units with cream gloss fronts and work surfaces. Integrated appliances include a recently fitted John Lewis washing machine, dishwasher, electric oven, Neff induction hob with extractor over, ceramic sink with draining board and cupboard housing the Worcester Bosch combination boiler. There is also a pull-out pantry cupboard, as well as space for a fridge/freezer. This in turn leads into a generous, well-maintained conservatory which currently acts as a second reception room, providing a lovely space to enjoy views across the rear garden.
First Floor -
A staircase leads up to a sizeable landing, with airing cupboard and a window providing views across the cul-de-sac and Monks Park. The master bedroom is a pleasant, quiet space complete with a contemporary en-suite shower room and fitted wardrobes. Opposite, there are two further bedrooms, with the second bedroom being a small double currently used as a hobby room, benefitting from a built-in storage cupboard. The family shower room was also fitted recently, and comprises a large shower cubicle, toilet and sink with a frosted glass window to the side elevation.
Externally -
Perhaps the biggest selling point of the property is its substantial plot. Number 14 is located at the head of the cul-de-sac, on a sizeable end plot siding directly onto Monks Park. To the front of the house, there is a beautifully maintained front garden with borders to front, as well as a long driveway offering parking for up to nine cars, which leads to the single garage. To the side of the driveway and directly adjacent to Monks Park, is a further generous lawned area which is currently being utilised as a vegetable patch due to its sunny aspect. There is huge potential here to further extend and develop the property.
To the rear of the house is a private, carefully manicured rear garden, which is primarily laid to lawn with floral borders, a sunny patio and brick-built barbecue.
