Description
For those seeking a countryside retreat in a substantial detached home, with ample outdoor space, a spacious multi-car driveway, and a double garage, this charming property, Fairways, is an exceptional choice.

Tucked away at the top of a tranquil lane, Fairways enjoys a prime spot among other unique properties along Moor End Road. Originally constructed in 1976 and tastefully updated, the home now boasts a modern kitchen, a bright garden room extension, a transformed office in place of the fifth bedroom, and an indulgent dressing room off the master suite.

Ground Floor
On the ground floor, the home features generously proportioned rooms, arranged around a welcoming central hallway. The light-filled sitting room is a true highlight, with plush carpeting, a stunning Firebelly wood burner framed by an exposed stone surround, and French doors that invite the afternoon sun in.

The open-plan kitchen, dining, and family area is the heart of the home, providing a wonderful space for family meals and social gatherings. Underfloor heating ensures comfort throughout, while the garden room offers a bright and airy atmosphere, enhanced by large windows and bi-fold doors that open up the room to the garden.

The kitchen is stylishly fitted with grey gloss cabinetry, sleek quartz countertops, and eye-catching splashbacks. It is equipped with a full range of modern appliances, including a Neff induction hob, oven, microwave, hot tap, Bosch dishwasher, and larder fridge. A convenient pantry, pull-down cupboards, and a wine cooler provide excellent storage options.

The adjoining utility room mirrors the kitchen’s contemporary style and includes an integrated fridge/freezer, space for a washing machine and dryer, plus additional storage. There is also a WC on this level. For added flexibility, a study offers the potential to serve as a fifth bedroom or home office.

First Floor
Upstairs, the property offers four well-proportioned double bedrooms and a second office, which could easily double as a nursery or playroom. The principal bedroom is spacious and cozy, with the added luxury of a private dressing room and a large en-suite bathroom.

Bedroom two enjoys its own en-suite bathroom, while a stylish family bathroom serves bedrooms three and four. The rear bedrooms offer stunning views over the surrounding countryside.

Outdoor Living
The outdoor space of this property truly enhances its rural appeal. The garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a secluded patio area in the far corner perfect for enjoying the natural beauty of the area. A lowered section of the rear fence ensures uninterrupted views. Mature planting, including wisteria, honeysuckle, winter jasmine, and hibiscus, provides year-round interest.

The property is set back from the lane behind electric gates, offering a high degree of privacy. The block-paved driveway provides parking for up to six cars, and a double garage offers additional space for parking or storage. The front garden is thoughtfully landscaped with mature planting, including a flowering cherry tree and sycamores along the driveway.
