Property Description
Having just completed a comprehensive upgrading this extended Semi-Detached House is a hugely impressive home, perfect for families or couples located within the popular Boclair district.
The programme of refurbishment has been extensive with new kitchen, utility room, sanitary ware to the bathroom and guest WC, flooring, decoration, lighting, some windows and the patio doors (to augment those previously done), internal doors, landscaping of the garden, full house re-wire and central heating system upgrade (new plumbing and brand-new radiators) and a significant improvement to the attic room on the second floor.
The full-width rear extension incorporates a family living room which seamlessly connects with the dining kitchen to make this the heart of the home very much. Rather cleverly our clients have also arranged the reception hall on an open-plan basis to the dining kitchen to create a great sense of flow and space through the ground floor. As the floorplans show the extension also includes a utility room and the WC.
Overall, just a super house.
Ground Floor
- Hall - an inviting reception hall entered through double glazed front door with matching side screen with the hall flowing straight through to the dining kitchen. Hall cupboard.
- Lounge - the formal lounge is a quiet retreat from the living room and kitchen and features a large window to the front.
- Dining Kitchen - arranged on an open-plan basis to both the hall and to the living room extension the new kitchen has a lovely complement of grey coloured units at counter level with one tall unit to house the cooker and microwave along with the integrated fridge-freezer. Additional built-in appliances included an induction hob, cooker hood, and concealed dishwasher. The marble style work surfaces continue as a peninsula island unit with breakfast bar. The dining area, with ample space for table and chairs, has a window to the side of the property.
- Sitting Room - off the kitchen and with a set of patio doors to the rear garden and with a rather pleasant outlook over same.
- Utility - off the sitting room and entered via a sliding “pocket door” it is similarly fitted to the kitchen and has side window. Boiler located here.
- WC - newly fitted and with a combined WC and WHB unit with cabinet. Side window.
First Floor
- The staircase ascends to the first-floor hallway with the balustrade to the staircase renewed.
- Bedroom 1 - The main bedroom has a wide 3-frame window to the front and a fitted double-width wardrobe.
- Bedroom 2 - another double bedroom with two-frame window to the rear overlooking the back garden. Fitted double-width wardrobe and single-width cupboard.
- Bedroom 3 - single bedroom front facing.
- Bathroom - again newly fitted and very thoughtfully designed with the three-piece suite featuring colour matching “floating” vanity cabinet, WC housing, and bath panel. All ironmongery (taps, shower attachment, towel radiator, shower screen trim) is in a lovely brass finish.
Second Floor
- From the first-floor hall a fixed, open tread and carpeted, staircase ascends to the second-floor landing which has a small skylight window and an access door into extensive floored eaves storage.
- Attic Room - we understand that the attic was converted in the 1970s with our clients upgrading it this year as part of the overall refurbishment. It makes for a very useful ancillary room and features two Velux windows which our clients have renewed. There are two deep set eaves storage cupboards.
All internal doors have been renewed with contemporary white door sets featuring dark chrome handles. New flooring includes a lovely grey coloured carpet laid to the lounge, the bedrooms, the staircases and landings, and with quality LVF flooring elsewhere.
Outside, the front garden has a small area of lawn with a lovely Acer tree. There is a slab and gravel driveway extending up the side of the house to the property’s detached single garage with the driveway affording off-street parking for some three to four cars. The rear garden is a really lovely area and is fully fenced in and gated. It has lawns with side and central paths, two sun patios to capture the sun at different points of the day and along the side of the main lawn a planted border which includes, amongst others, another beautiful Acer.
The garage is single sized and detached.
The Boclair district is a very popular one in no small part due to the excellent local primary school, Killermont Primary, and for the recently opened (£40m+) new school premises of Boclair Academy. Both schools are within short walking distance.
