The Croft is a beautifully presented and characterful four-bedroom detached home, occupying a generous plot on the edge of the highly desirable Village of Laleston. Enjoying a countryside setting just off the A48, the property offers the perfect balance of rural surroundings whilst remaining within easy reach of village amenities and just a short drive from the seaside town of Porthcawl.
Extended by the current owners, this exceptional home seamlessly blends traditional charm with modern family living. Featuring a stunning open-plan kitchen/family room, three reception rooms, beautifully landscaped gardens, a double garage and countryside views, The Croft offers versatile accommodation ideal for growing families or those seeking a unique village home.
Ground Floor
A bespoke timber-framed entrance porch with stone detailing creates a striking first impression before opening into a welcoming and spacious reception hallway, complete with attractive chequered tiled flooring, handcrafted wooden staircase, generous cloak storage and an open under stairs area.
The lounge is an elegant and impressive reception room featuring three box bay windows with fitted shutters and window seats, a central feature fireplace, traditional radiators, recessed shelving and ample space for a variety of furniture arrangements.
Across the hallway, the snug provides a cosy second sitting room with a further box bay window, fitted shutters, panelled wall and a feature fireplace, creating the perfect retreat.
Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the superb open-plan kitchen/family room. Beautifully designed for modern living and entertaining, the kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of base, wall and drawer units complemented by granite work surfaces and matching up stands. Features include a Belfast sink, integrated dishwasher, integrated fridge/freezer, electric induction range cooker set within a recess with extractor above, exposed stone fireplace, bespoke shelving and a large freestanding island providing seating for six. A stunning roof lantern floods the room with natural light, whilst bi-folding doors open directly onto the courtyard and gardens beyond.
The adjoining utility room is both practical and spacious, fitted with timber worktops, sink unit, space for washing machine and tumble dryer, exposed stone wall and houses the Worcester floor-standing boiler. A door from the kitchen provides internal access into the garage.
A versatile reception room overlooking the rear garden is currently utilised as a home gym but would equally suit a ground floor bedroom, home office or playroom.
Completing the ground floor is a stylish shower room fitted with a walk-in electric shower, vanity unit with wash hand basin, WC, heated chrome towel rail and contemporary tiling.
First Floor
The handcrafted staircase rises to a bright landing with glazed internal doors allowing additional natural light throughout.
The main bedroom is a wonderful split-level suite enjoying views across the surrounding countryside. The room offers excellent space for a king-size bed and furniture, together with a walk-in wardrobe fitted with shelving and hanging space, alongside useful under-eaves storage.
Bedroom two is generous double room with fitted wardrobes and dual aspect windows enjoying far-reaching countryside views.
Bedroom three is also a further double bedroom with fitted storage and dual aspect windows, with views stretching towards Laleston Church.
Bedroom four is a comfortable single bedroom, ideal as a nursery, home office or guest room, again enjoying pleasant village and countryside views.
The family bathroom is beautifully appointed with a traditional four-piece suite comprising a freestanding bath, large walk-in shower, vanity unit with wash hand basin, WC, traditional style radiator and attractive wall and floor tiling.
Outside
The Croft occupies a superb plot approached via a chipping driveway providing off-road parking for approximately four vehicles and leading to the double garage.
The front and side gardens have been beautifully landscaped with manicured lawns, mature trees, shrubs and planting, all enclosed by attractive stone walls and established hedging. A gated access provides useful storage space alongside the garage.
The double garage has been partitioned into two useful sections, both benefitting from power, lighting and up-and-over doors. One side of the garage can be accessed from inside the property.
To the rear, a sheltered courtyard sits directly outside the bi-fold doors, creating an ideal entertaining area. The gardens then wrap around the property, offering an abundance of mature planting, established trees, colourful borders, generous lawned areas and several patio seating areas, all enjoying a countryside backdrop and an exceptional level of privacy.
