WARMTH & WELCOME
Situated in the heart of Hawkshaw, Quarlton Drive is a spacious family home, that has big plans for the future…
Pull onto the quiet close of Quarlton Drive, before parking on the driveway of this superb detached home located at the head of this prestigious and sought after cul-de-sac and make your way towards the entrance. Enter via the porch where there is space to add shoe storage for all those hiking boots and muddy wellies.
A part-glazed internal door invites borrowed light through into the heart of the home, a large reception entrance hallway with warm toned wooden laminate flooring with feature staircase with spindled balustrade. Directly on the right, hang up your coat in the double cloak cupboard.
ROOM TO GROW
Turning left in the hallway, you will find a generous sized dining room which overlooks the front garden and driveway. Although this room is currently used as a dining room, this versatile space could be used as a snug, and for families, it could also be a convenient playroom for children. There is even a hatch to the kitchen next door, allowing you to keep an eye on the children and summon them when dinner is served. Why not consider removing this wall and extending to the rear to create a modern open-plan family kitchen-garden room?
Returning to the hallway and you will find the kitchen on the left, adorned with oak kitchen cabinets and drawers providing ample storage. This kitchen has plenty of potential to grow and modernise. Integrated appliances include a brushed steel gas hob, oven, built-in microwave, fridge and free standing dishwasher. Spacious and bright, light serenades the space from several windows, framing verdant views out to the emerald lawn and countryside beyond.
Slip through into the utility room, plumbed for a washer, dryer, and inset stainless steel sink unit set within a complimentary worktop and plenty of space in here for a freestanding fridge and freezer. Underfoot you will find tiled flooring. Flow through from here into the spacious double garage with electric up and over door.
From the utility room there is also access to the rear garden onto the patio and access to a side passage.
Leaving the kitchen and turning left, laminate flooring flows into the downstairs W.C. Freshen up in here, with fitted wash basin and WC. This room affords further stunning views over the surrounding countryside to the rear.
A handy understairs storage area is also located here, to stash away the hoover and ironing board in the deep cupboard.
FAMILY LIVING
Across the hall, step through into the lavishly sized light-filled lounge, where windows to the front and rear deliver illumination into every corner of the room. Carpeted in cream tones, there is plenty of room for a large sofa and armchairs upon which to settle down and snuggle up. On a winter’s evening, feel the warmth from the fireplace; this room is ideal and offers potential to create a blank canvas upon which to imprint your own personal style.
AND THERE’S MORE…
Wander through the sliding patio doors, creating a free-flowing entertaining space between the lounge and the recently renovated Orangery, with vaulted ceiling and Apex window affording spectacular views over the meticulously maintained garden.
Step outside through the glazed door and soak up the sunshine. Take in the stunning views out over the manicured garden and to the countryside beyond.
AND SO TO BED…
When slumber calls, ascend the stairs, sumptuously carpeted in mustard tones and again, just for a moment, let the spectacular views from the low level window take your breath away.
Turning left on the landing into the first of six sumptuously sized bedrooms. This first bedroom is fitted with floor to ceiling wardrobes robes and matching drawers. Next door, you will find another double bedroom which overlooks the side garden, furnished with freestanding furniture: a peaceful bedroom. Next, you will find the smaller bedroom, currently utilised as a home office, also with fitted furniture.
REFRESH & REVIVE
Refresh and relax in the family bathroom, partially tiled in luxurious teal tones with cream paint to compliment.
Contemporary spotlighting allows for optimum illumination as you soak, shower and scrub, in the jacuzzi style bathtub. Light and bright with two large windows which draw in the natural daylight.
Opposite, you will find a further double bedroom overlooking the front of the property. This room is carpeted, with neutral décor and freestanding furniture.
Continue along the landing to seek sanctuary in the master bedroom, a peaceful, bright and quiet room tucked away at the end. With a birds eye view of the garden and uninterrupted panorama of Hawkshaw beyond.
Wake up with a morning spritz beneath the rainfall head of the quadrant shower, located in the partially tiled ensuite. In addition to this spacious shower cubicle, there is a wash basin and a WC and heated towel rail.
Next door, overlooking the front of the property, there is a further very large double bedroom with laminate flooring and fitted furniture. There is a possibility here to remove the stud wall and create a master suite if six bedrooms are more than you require.
Imagine creating your very own walk in wardrobe and master ensuite with twin vanity unit and double shower.
GARDENS WITH VIEWS
Bursting with mature trees and stocked with an abundance of shrubs, the wraparound gardens of 29 Quarlton Drive offer delights in all seasons. Expansive views are to be enjoyed from the rear of the home, out over fields and the surrounding countryside of Hawkshaw. A perfect, peaceful haven to relax and entertain in. Take to the terrace for summer barbeques with family and friends whilst children play on the plentiful wrap around lawns, then, as the light dwindles, pick up your drink and retreat into the Orangery, bringing the outside in.
