59 – 61 CHARLEMONT DRIVE

Pulling up onto the large wide driveway, it is immediately noticeable that this house is different to every other house on this purpose built development which was designed and built to meet the ever increasing demand of people wishing to work and run a business from home. Stepping out of your car the first thing that strikes you is the peace and tranquillity and the feeling that you have space around you, not often associated with a modern development. The surrounding properties are all aesthetically pleasing detached executive homes.

The property is “light and airy” throughout and enjoys an easy flow from room to room, accompanied by ample natural light from the large windows. Benefiting from quality UPVC double glazing, underfloor heating with individual thermostats to all ground floor rooms and both en-suites on the first floor, ensuring the house is very economical and fuel efficient to run, internal viewing is strongly recommended to differentiate this house to others on the development.

The property which is in excellent decorative order throughout has been well designed, ensuring that it flows well from room to room, and is an impressive size throughout with all the modern luxuries that one could want.

The welcoming ENTRANCE HALL allows access to the downstairs cloakroom, living room, kitchen and stairs to the first floor.

LIVING ROOM From the moment you walk in it is clear to see that it is of an excellent size. The room feels comfortable and benefits from duel aspect windows to the front and rear which floods the room with natural light. Doubled French doors lead out onto a patio area and a large gas fireplace stands central to the room making for an excellent focal point.

SUN LOUNGE A superb example of how an extension to a property should be done. The excellent sized sun-lounge enjoys a southerly aspect and for those hot summer days has the luxury of air-conditioning and a ceiling fan, but for those cold winter days enjoys underfloor heating , ensuring that the room becomes an integral part of the house all year round. Double doors provide access to the garden and a single door gives access to the double garage.

The OPEN PLAN LIVING DINING KITCHEN has been designed intuitively ensuring usability and versatility and it is immediately obvious that this is the “Hub” of the house. Our clients recall the many occasions this space has been ideal for entertaining family and friends over the years. It has an open plan layout with the KITCHEN AREA offering a range of base and eye level storage units and ample work surfaces. There are various built in appliances to include and a large centralised work station with built in power points that help meets the demands of the keenest of chefs and everyday family life. To the far end is a large DINING / LIVING AREA which allows you flexibility with the placement of furniture to suit your own family requirements and a doors leads into the -

DRIVEWAY For anyone running a business from home with either work vehicles or those receiving regular deliveries the driveway is a particular feature.
