Description
Tucked away within a private no-through road in the heart of Newick, 33 High Hurst Close is a thoughtfully enlarged detached home offering versatile and well-presented accommodation, complemented by a mature garden and excellent potential for further enlargement, subject to the necessary consents. Light-filled and welcoming throughout, the property enjoys a particularly bright aspect, with many of the principal rooms benefiting from excellent natural light.
The property has been extended during the current ownership, with additions including a useful utility/laundry room, an attractive vaulted garden room and a fourth bedroom, creating a well-balanced home ideally suited to modern living.
A covered entrance leads into a welcoming reception hall with useful understairs storage and a ground floor shower room fitted with mosaic tiling and comprising a shower, WC and wash basin. The sitting room is a particularly bright and inviting reception space, benefiting from a southerly aspect and a bay window which draws in natural light throughout the day. A marble fireplace with coal-effect gas fire and wooden surround provides an attractive focal point. Currently arranged as a sitting room, the space could equally serve as a formal dining room if desired. A home lift is positioned in one corner, providing access to bedroom one.
Beyond the sitting room is a study area with fitted storage and a desk unit. The study area opens into a particularly appealing garden room, featuring a vaulted ceiling with exposed oak timbers and Velux rooflights, full-height glazing to one end, and French doors opening directly onto the terrace and garden. Flooded with natural light, this versatile space is sufficiently generous to accommodate both seating and dining areas, providing an enjoyable setting for everyday living, entertaining and relaxing while enjoying views of the garden throughout the year.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern shaker-style units beneath granite-effect work surfaces and incorporates an inset sink, an Esse range cooker, an additional electric oven and four-ring hob, and space for further appliances. An archway leads through to the utility room and on to the laundry room, which together provide additional storage, a further sink and space for laundry appliances, along with a door to the garden.
An internal door from the utility room provides direct access to the integral single garage, which benefits from an electrically operated up-and-over door.
The first floor is arranged around a split-level landing with access to loft storage and an airing cupboard. There are four bedrooms; bedroom one enjoys a particularly bright southerly aspect and benefits from fitted wardrobes, while bedroom two overlooks the rear garden and benefits from an en suite shower room. Bedroom three is dual aspect, with windows to both the front and rear, and could equally serve as a study, hobby room or guest bedroom. The family bathroom is fitted with a white suite comprising a bath, wash basin and WC.
Outside
A particular feature of the property is its mature and well-established rear garden, which offers a good degree of seclusion and has been carefully planted with a variety of flowering shrubs and specimen trees, including silver birch, acer and sycamore.
Immediately adjoining the house is a large stone terrace with attractive brick detailing and curved steps, creating an excellent setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. At the far end of the garden is a screened area incorporating a timber shed, playhouse and composting area.
To the front, a block-paved driveway provides off-street parking and access to the integral garage. Gated access on both sides of the house leads through to the rear garden.
