Features & Description
Property Description
Occupying a generous plot within a quiet cul-de-sac in sought-after Blackhall, this extended traditional semi-detached chalet bungalow offers exceptionally versatile family accommodation arranged over two levels. The five-bedroom home combines a separate bay-fronted living room with an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room, two bathrooms, and a utility room. A mature private garden, a two-room garden building, extensive storage, and a broad private driveway complete the property.
A warm and characterful welcome
A vestibule opens into a long, welcoming hall, where stripped timber flooring brings warmth and character. Useful built-in cupboards provide practical household storage.
Distinctive spaces for relaxing and entertaining
The comfortable living room is quietly positioned to the front, with a broad bay window and fireplace housing a living-flame fire forming attractive focal points. The home’s principal social space lies in the impressive extension to the rear: a wonderfully generous open-plan room designed for cooking, dining, relaxing, and entertaining.
An outstanding open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room
Here, extensive glazing, rooflights, and direct garden access create an uplifting connection with the outdoors. The kitchen is fitted with ample Shaker-style cabinets and workspace, accompanied by an integrated double oven and microwave, gas hob, and extractor. There is plenty of room for a large dining table, while the family area is enhanced by a wood-burning stove. Natural timber flooring lends warmth to the dining and sitting areas, helping to define the distinct zones within the open-plan layout. A separate utility room, adjoining boot room with garden access, and attached side store add excellent practicality.
Five flexible bedrooms
Two bedrooms are located on the ground floor, the larger of which is currently arranged as a home office, offering valuable flexibility for family life, guests, or hybrid working. Upstairs, the bright principal bedroom enjoys far-reaching views across the city through a broad south-facing window, along with extensive bespoke fitted wardrobes, and is accompanied by a second well-proportioned bedroom and a versatile skylit fifth bedroom/study. The versatile layout is particularly well suited to modern family life.
Two well-appointed bath and shower rooms
The ground-floor bathroom includes a three-piece suite with a shower-over-bath, while a separate first-floor shower room, nestled under the eaves, serves the upper bedrooms.
Private gardens, a garden building, and generous parking
Outside, the broad, mature rear garden is screened by established planting and incorporates a generous lawn, colourful borders, trees, and a paved terrace for outdoor dining. At the far end, a recently built contemporary two-room garden building comprises a relaxing garden room with wide sliding doors and an adjoining workshop. The garden room benefits from Wi-Fi connectivity, making it ideal for use as a home office, while both spaces have full electrical provision and electric heating for versatile year-round use. A private monoblock driveway provides generous off-street parking for multiple vehicles.
Extras: All fitted floor coverings, window coverings, light fittings, wood burner, gas fire and appliances are included in the sale. Integrated appliances include double oven/combi microwave, gas hob and extractor. Freestanding appliances include a washing machine and fridge/freezer.
