5 bedroom detached house for sale

An impressive individually designed detached family home arranged over three floors and situated on one of Northwood’s sought-after private roads Description Westwood House is an attractive and substantial detached family home offering approximately 4,534 sq ft of well-proportioned accommodation arranged over three floors. The property benefits from air conditioning to the kitchen/breakfast room, principal bedroom and bedroom three. Designed in a modern classic style, the house combines the elegance and proportions of a traditional family home with the comfort and practicality of a more contemporary home. Its attractive elevations and carefully considered design give the property a timeless appearance which sits particularly well within its established Kewferry Drive surroundings. The ground floor is dedicated principally to family living and entertaining. At the heart of the house is the generous kitchen/breakfast room, with a central island and extensive fitted cabinetry. The kitchen leads through to an elegant orangery, creating a wonderful light-filled space from which to enjoy views across and direct access to the garden. The orangery also provides a natural transition between the principal reception accommodation and the outside space. The reception accommodation includes a substantial sitting room, separate dining room, study and playroom, providing considerable flexibility for both formal entertaining and modern family requirements. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation. The five bedrooms are arranged over the first and second floors, creating a clear separation between the living and sleeping accommodation. The first floor includes an impressive principal bedroom suite, with its dressing room and en suite bathroom, together with three further generously proportioned bedrooms (one with an en suite bathroom) and family bathroom facilities. The second floor provides further excellent bedroom accommodation, including a particularly impressive bedroom of approximately 25'10" x 22'10", together with an adjoining WC. The upper floor provides a degree of privacy and flexibility that would suit older children, guests or extended family. Outside, Westwood House occupies a generous plot with a rear garden of about 120 ft, providing an excellent private setting for the house and ample space for outdoor entertaining and family recreation.
