Brickponds Built by the current owners in the 1990’s, Brickponds is a detached family house with spacious, well-appointed accommodation arranged over two floors. The property enjoys a wonderful position on Exlade Street and sits centrally in its plot which measures in excess of 0.65 acres and offers tremendous scope for extending/modernisation (subject to the relevant permissions being obtained). On the ground floor the entrance porch opens into the wide central hallway which leads to the dual aspect dining/family room at the front of the house. On the opposite side of the hall, the triple aspect drawing room spans the full length of the property with views over the front and rear gardens. A charming fireplace provides a lovely focal point and there are French windows opening out onto the gardens to the side of the house. The kitchen/breakfast room is at the back of the property and has a range of wall and floor units, tiled flooring, a Rayburn range cooker and makes the most of the wonderful views over the back garden and countryside beyond. The boot room and downstairs shower room are conveniently positioned by the back door which provides access to the pretty gardens and garage. The first floor accommodation consists of a spacious triple aspect master bedroom with en-suite WC and views out across the neighbouring fields. There are two further generous sized bedrooms both of which enjoy rural views and are served by the family bathroom. Gardens and Grounds Brickponds is set within a large plot of 0.65 acres with a wonderful garden flowing from the front around to the rear of the property. At the front of the property there is pedestrian access as well as a driveway leading up to a gated parking area and garage. The garden is mostly laid to lawn with some topiary hedging and various mature shrubs and trees. At the rear the garden offers a woodland area backing onto neighbouring farmland.
