Semi-Detached House

Tucked away behind a wide block paved driveway which offers off road parking alongside an integral garage, a mature hedge adds a sense of screening and privacy to the low-maintenance gravel garden at the front of Vernon Road.
A handy porch, tiled underfoot, provides space to doff and don coats and shoes, before making your way through into the entrance hallway. Lined in engineered wood flooring, muted pastel tones to the walls create a warm, calming welcome home. Ahead the stairs lead up to four bedrooms on the first floor, whilst downstairs, the entertaining and living space awaits.
Opening up beneath the stairs, a door to the right leads into the garage, ripe for conversion with light streaming in through a large window to the side. Currently housing the boiler and meters, this space also currently serves as a utility area, housing the washing machine and dryer.
Freshen up in the ground floor shower room, where charcoal grey tiles flow out underfoot, complemented by grey and cream shades to the walls. A wash basin and WC also accompany the large shower.
Returning to the inner hallway, make your way past the storage cupboard and continue into the kitchen, where the charcoal tile motif continues. Sociable, spacious and flooded with light, a window to the rear draws in garden views, whilst the breakfast bar on the left connects the kitchen with the open plan lounge-dining room beyond.
Wooden-style cabinets sit seamlessly alongside the integrated appliances, which include a gas hob, extractor hood, oven and grill.
Flowing out from the kitchen is the dining area, perfect for wining and dining with family and friends, before unwinding in the orangery to the rear, where wood flooring features underfoot. Inset blinds provide privacy in winter time, whilst the pitched solid roof overhead adds an airy feel. In summertime, throw open the French doors and step out into the garden for alfresco dining. Bifolding doors open to allow this room to flow freely on from the dining space when entertaining, or close them to create pockets of peace and privacy.
Double doors connect the dining area to the lounge, positioned towards the front of the home and flowing with light from a large window overlooking the garden. Warmth emanates from a gas fire nestled within a wooden surround. Fresh white walls meet a feature wall of striped grey for a neutral feel.
Carpeted stairs lead to the bright and airy landing, where light streams in through a large window overlooking the front.
Currently serving as an office, bedroom four is a comfortable, carpeted double to the right of the stairs, with blind-fitted windows providing pleasant views out to the quiet comings and goings of Vernon Road to the front.
Next door, also carpeted underfoot, blush tones and geometric shapes dress the third bedroom, another comfortable double nestled in the eaves to the rear of the home. With plenty of space for a chest of drawers, wardrobe and desk, views extend out over the garden to the rear.
Blush hues run throughout the home, infusing subtle warmth, and culminating in the soft taupe of the part-tiled walls of the family bathroom. Underfoot, luxury laminate flooring carries a grained wooden vibe, whilst fitted white cabinetry provides storage beneath the wash basin. Alongside a WC there is also a modern chrome towel radiator and centrally filling bathtub furnished with drench shower overhead and handheld wand.
Brimming with fitted storage, tranquillity awaits in the principal bedroom, where modern cabinetry wraps around the room to three sides, providing wardrobes, chests of drawers and a dressing table for a clutter free environment. Views feature out over the garden to the rear.
Completing the complement of bedrooms, a spacious and serene guest bedroom with soft grey carpet and contemporary wallpaper, where salmon pink notes mingle with geometric lines of black and marbled grey, looks out to the front.
Safe and secure for children and pets, the garden is gated to the sides, with a paved passage and access out from the kitchen for accessing bins.
A paved patio to the rear is perfect for soaking up the sunshine, with plenty of lawn for the children to play. Neatly edged borders are on hand for introducing colour and fragrance, whilst raised decking provides the perfect party space at the rear of the garden.
Spacious, stylish and superbly located, Vernon Road is a home designed for modern family living. Whether hosting lively gatherings, enjoying peaceful moments in the garden, or embracing the warmth of its thoughtfully designed interiors, this home offers comfort, convenience and charm in equal measure.
