Retaining much of its original charm, this substantial family home has been extended and upgraded over the years to create the fabulous property we see today. It briefly comprises: A large private driveway, storm porch, generous reception hall, family dining room, sitting room, drawing room, games room, conservatory, cloakroom, and ground floor shower room, as well as a family breakfast kitchen, utility, second entrance, and a hall leading from front to back, along with an integrated garage. Upstairs, there are five spacious double bedrooms, three en-suite bathrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate study, which could serve as a sixth double bedroom if required. Outside, the property is set back behind a tall, mature screen of trees and shrubbery, offering a large private driveway. To the rear is a magnificent family garden with a generous terrace spanning the width of the property, an excellent storage shed with Cat 5 cabling, power, and lighting, a wooden-framed greenhouse, and a charming gazebo. The garden features large lawns and mature shrubbery in the upper section, with a gravel path meandering to a hidden second garden at the rear. This substantial space is predominantly laid to lawn, with an array of mature fruit trees at the far end and open fields beyond. There are also several raised beds for keen gardeners and ample space for children to play and enjoy. The property is located on the east side of Old Station Road, an incredibly sought-after location in this much-loved village for several reasons. These include the size of the gardens, its status as one of the longest cul-de-sacs in the UK, and its proximity to Hampton Station, which offers direct trains to Birmingham and London. Detailed Description: When the present owners purchased the property, they knew they had found the perfect place to bring up their children. Offering ample space and versatility, this is a home that has grown with their family over the years. Set back behind a large, gravelled driveway with a magnificent oak tree to the front, the property is entered through a storm porch with an original oak front door featuring stained glass detail. Once inside, you immediately experience the charm of the original 1920s reception hall, with its tall, vaulted ceiling and gallery landing. Smartly presented with oak-effect Karndean flooring, this spacious hall creates the perfect introduction to the home. Leading off from here are the first two reception rooms, both overlooking the private frontage. The dining room provides a very generous space for large family gatherings and special occasions, with a charming Victorian fireplace and real-flame gas fire serving as a stunning focal point. Adjacent to this is the sitting room. Also spacious, this versatile room has served various purposes over the years, including as a children’s playroom, large study, music room, and additional lounge. At the end of the reception hall is a good-sized cloakroom with triple floor-to-ceiling built-in storage. Beyond this is a conveniently located shower room and WC, ideal for family members or guests requiring ground-floor facilities. The delightful drawing room at the rear enjoys wonderful views across the extensive gardens and is the perfect space for the family to gather, relax, and entertain. It features a beautiful wood-burning fireplace with a limestone surround and double French doors leading into the generously sized conservatory. The conservatory provides direct access to the terraces and gardens and becomes a delightful sitting room during the summer months. Adjacent to the drawing room is the well-presented family breakfast kitchen, featuring an excellent range of recently upgraded floor and wall-mounted cabinetry complemented by contrasting Corian countertops. There is also a superb selection of integrated appliances, including a Tecnik range cooker with a gas hob, double electric oven, and grill, an extractor fan above, an inset Neff microwave, a Tecnik dishwasher, and a tall larder fridge. Additionally, there is ample space for an American fridge freezer and plenty of room for a family breakfast table in the dining area, from which a door opens onto the rear terrace and gardens. At the far end of the kitchen, a door leads to a wide side passage with doors to the front and rear, providing convenient access to the rear garden. This area also offers significant potential for creating a separate annexe with its own entrance. With a large games room to the rear, a separate laundry room, and an integrated garage, there is ample space for reconfiguration. Upstairs The original oak staircase with twisted spindles creates a charming feature in the reception hall, with a gallery landing overlooking the frontage. Upstairs, the property is just as spacious as the ground floor, offering five double bedrooms and an office. Many of the bedrooms are fitted with luxury furniture from Neville Johnson and Olton Bedrooms. The open office space could easily be used as a sixth bedroom if required. There are three double bedrooms in the original part of the property, one of which has an en-suite. The two-storey extension added a further two bedroom suites and a large office space, including a fabulous guest bedroom with a luxury en-suite and the principal bedroom suite. The principal bedroom is both spacious and beautifully presented, featuring a superb range of fitted wardrobes and cabinets, fabulous rear views of the gardens and countryside beyond, and a Juliette balcony overlooking the rear terraces. The en-suite includes a shower bath, a vanity unit with a WC, and a pedestal Heritage hand basin. It is also fitted with a mirrored storage cabinet and chrome towel rail, benefiting from a Velux skylight that provides natural light. Outside This property, like many on the south-facing side of this cul-de-sac, enjoys incredibly large rear gardens, with open countryside beyond. It’s easy to see why these homes are so sought-after by families and keen gardeners alike. From the front of the property, the width of the plot is immediately apparent. Set back from the road with a screen of mature trees and shrubbery, it offers a very private driveway with ample space for multiple cars. To the rear, the garden features a superb limestone terrace spanning the width of the property, providing an ideal space for family gatherings and al fresco dining during the warmer months. The garden is divided into two distinct areas, with the generous upper garden serving as a smart, formal garden. This space is mainly laid to lawn and bordered by mature shrubbery and trees, including rhododendrons, acers, and laurels. A delightful wooden gazebo and a wood-framed greenhouse enhance the charm of the garden. Conveniently located near the house, there is also an excellent wooden storage shed with double doors to the rear, ideal for larger garden equipment. The shed is equipped with lighting and Cat 5 cabling. A smart gravelled pathway meanders down one side, leading beyond a tall screen of mature trees to the lower garden space. This area, even larger than the upper garden, is beautifully hidden from sight and offers the perfect place for children’s play equipment and raised beds for gardening enthusiasts. At the far end, there are several mature fruit trees, and with open countryside just beyond, this truly is the most idyllic garden for the whole family to enjoy.
