Description 19 Church Street is a delightful, light and spacious detached family house which was constructed about 7 years ago by Highland Glen Estates. Principally of rendered elevations beneath a tiled roof, the property is much larger than expected as there is a weather boarded rear “wing” which is not immediately visible from the front. The accommodation is well planned, with underfloor heating on the ground floor and a pleasing “flow” from the wide reception hall with its wooden flooring. This leads to the inner hall and the large, well-proportioned double aspect drawing room beyond with an attractive pointed arch stone fireplace and bi-fold doors to the garden. Beside the inner hall is a study and a cloakroom and to the front of the house is a double aspect sitting/ playroom. On the left of the reception hall is the superb L-shaped kitchen/dining/living room with both bi-fold and French doors to the rear terrace and gardens. The kitchen is fitted with a central island incorporating a breakfast bar and an electric hob with extractor canopy above and there are a good range of contemporary gloss faced dual coloured base and wall units incorporating cupboards and pan drawers, black marble worktops and a range of fitted appliances including fridge and freezer, dishwasher, eye level oven and grill. There is ample space for both sitting and dining here with access to the boiler cupboard and utility room with part glazed “back” door to the front, plumbing for washing machine, space for tumble dryer, and sink unit. On the first floor, the impressive master suite is to the rear (above the drawing room) with views over the garden, fitted wardrobes providing extensive storage and an en suite shower room. On the opposite side is a “guest suite” of bedroom with fitted wardrobe, a study area and shower room and there are three further double bedrooms, one of which has fitted wardrobes, together with a family bathroom incorporating both a panelled bath and fitted shower cubicle.
