ABOUT THE PROPERTY

Glenside is a handsome, detached family home to the very heart of St. Brides Major. It is understood to date from the mid 1930's but has been comprehensively refurbished and modernised by the current owner in more recent years. From the driveway running to the side of the property, the principal entrance door opens into the hallway. From here stairs lead to the first floor whilst strip wood flooring continues into the family living rooms; a further door opens to a neat under stairs store cupboard. An additional door leads to the kitchen/dining room. The family lounge was originally two rooms and is now connected by broad, open a square archway. It features a bow window to the front elevation while the adjacent sitting area includes a Contura contemporary wood burning stove resting on a slate hearth. The kitchen/dining space is positioned to the rear of the property and is a more modern addition. This lovely light room includes bi-folding doors opening to a flagstone paved seating area with garden beyond. The L-shaped run of kitchen units has solid wooden surfaces atop surrounding a deep French sink with appliances, where fitted, to remain including: oven, hob, fully integrated dishwasher, washing machine, fridge and freezer. There is additional access to a boiler room providing additional storage and space for the gas heating boiler off which is a downstairs cloakroom/WC. To the first floor the landing area has doors leading to all three bedrooms and to the shower room. The two largest bedrooms are both good doubles and both overlook the front elevation. The third single bedroom looks to the side. All these bedrooms share use of the luxurious, modern shower room with its broad deep walk-in shower cubicle.

This block paved driveway skirts past a good front lawned garden and continues to the side of th property to the principal entrance doorway; a gated entrance leads onto the rear garden. Rear garden itself is a good size area including a gravel-chipped hardstanding fronting the detached garage (approx. max. 4.4m x 5.6m). This garage is entered via side hinged double doors and has power connected and eaves storage. Gravel driveway, in turn, is open onto a flagstone paved seating area from which there is direct access into the kitchen/dining space.
