From here, a glazed door leads through to a central hall that has a convenient cloakroom WC. From the outset it is clear, Brandelhow is an outstanding property.
 
Reception rooms – Effortlessly elegant and sophisticated 
Enjoying generous proportions, the living room can host a fantastic choice of comfy lounge furnishings, all ideally arranged around a chic feature fireplace that forms a delightful focal point. This room is further enhanced by pristine decoration and a solid oak floor, which is approximately two years old. A dado rail and display shelving add to the look, completing the elegant aesthetic. In addition, bi-folding doors connect to the adjacent sunroom. These can be opened out to create an even larger reception space for entertaining family and friends. 
 
A separate dining room has a similar aesthetic to the living area, continuing the oak floor and two-toned décor divided by a dado rail. It has spacious dimensions and can accommodate a family-sized table, as well as comfortable seating. Furthermore, it is brightly illuminated by a bay window and finished by a handsome feature fireplace set beside fitted shelving and a double-door cupboard – perfect for storing placemats and cookery books. 
 
Kitchen – A modern kitchen with excellent storage
Conveniently, the breakfasting kitchen shares an open-plan layout with the dining room, which creates a dual aspect allowing a flood of natural light to flow throughout the entire space. It also has an attractive modern design that is enduring and popular. Fitted with cream-coloured cabinets and wooden worktops, it offers excellent storage and workspace. In addition, it comes with integrated appliances (oven, induction hob, extractor hood, and dishwasher) and a tall freestanding Smeg Retro fridge with a freezer compartment. The freestanding solid oak kitchen units with drawers and granite worktops will also be included. A separate utility room (by the cloakroom WC) has additional storage and space for a washing machine.
 
Bedrooms – Immaculate presentation and inspiring views
In keeping with the rest of the home, the four bedrooms are all immaculately presented with a keen eye for detail. Set on the first floor, they are comprised of three bright and airy doubles and a versatile space (bedroom four) that is organised as an office, showcasing the flexibility of the property. The principal bedroom has the largest dimensions, and it further benefits from inspiring garden views and a contemporary en-suite wet room with a handheld and overhead rainfall shower. The second bedroom enjoys dual-aspect windows and a feature fireplace, whilst the third bedroom has a built-in wardrobe. All four bedrooms are also laid with wool carpets that are approximately one year old.
 
Bathrooms – Three premium washrooms 
In addition to the cloakroom WC and the en-suite, Brandelhow also features a lovely family bathroom, which enjoys neutral décor and fashionable tile work. It is equipped with a toilet, a storage-set washbasin, and a P-shaped bath with an overhead rainfall shower. 
 
For year-round comfort and efficiency, the property has oil-fired central heating and double-glazed windows. 
 
Garden & Parking – A wealth of outdoor space for families
Enveloped by mature trees, the home enjoys an air of seclusion and excellent privacy. It is also flanked by expansive gardens to the front and rear which are carefully landscaped, featuring vast lawns framed by established planting. These gardens provide a truly idyllic setting and a wealth of outdoor space for families. In addition, the front garden has a patio for summer dining, as well as a greenhouse for growing vegetables. To the rear, there is an outbuilding with two stables. Furthermore, a private driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles, in addition to a detached double garage with workshop/storage space.
