4 Bedroom Detached House

A rare opportunity to acquire this charming Victorian semi-detached family home, with the original part of the property dating back to 1871. Beautifully extended over the years, the house now offers spacious and versatile accommodation whilst retaining much of its period character and appeal. Set within glorious gardens, the property enjoys a high degree of privacy and an enviable village setting in the highly sought-after village of Hermitage.

The accommodation is well suited to modern family living and comprises an inviting sitting room featuring a handsome cast-iron fireplace, creating a warm and welcoming focal point. A separate dining room  with open fire provides an excellent space for entertaining and leads through to the impressive kitchen/breakfast room. Fitted with an extensive range of cabinetry and generous work surfaces, the kitchen also benefits from a breakfast bar, integrated dishwasher, space for an American-style fridge/freezer and a range cooker. Dual-aspect windows flood the room with natural light, creating a bright and sociable heart of the home.

On the first floor are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, a further single bedroom and a family bathroom, offering ample space for growing families.

Approached via a large sweeping driveway, the property provides parking for numerous vehicles and access to a double garage. To the front, the garden is predominantly laid to lawn and enhanced by mature shrubs and planting. The delightful rear garden is a particular feature of the property, offering a traditional and established setting with a raised terraced patio ideal for al fresco dining and outdoor entertaining. Beyond lies an expansive lawn bordered by mature shrubs, flowers and specimen plants, providing colour, interest and enjoyment throughout the seasons.

Hermitage is a thriving and popular village offering excellent local amenities including a Co-operative, convenience store with sub-post office, village hall and primary school. The property falls within the catchment area for the highly regarded Downs School.
