2 This excellent detached property is located in Douglas Close, one of Hartford's most sought after residential addresses. Ori ginally constructed by Redrow in 1992, the property has a striking aesthetic appeal and has been superbly extended and improved with high quality UPVC double glazing being fitted within the last few weeks by the present owners. The property is a very large, spac ious and adaptable family home. Offered for sale with no onging chain and priced competitively, an early viewing is recommended. Upon internal inspection purchasers will note the substantial proportions of all the rooms and will be particularly wowed by the ground floor that offers a space and versatility difficult to be bettered. The entrance hall is a spacious and elegant opening to the property and has doors that lead to several of the key reception rooms and a ground floor cloakroom. The living is located at the front o f the house and has a bay window and a feature fireplace. Two sets of double width doors from the entrance hall lead to the L-shaped family which is split into two areas and therefore can be used as either two separate reception rooms or one larger flowing space if preferre d. Double doors from family room one lead down to the south facing garden and there is also a curved bay window which brings character to the room. There is also a separate study/office which could alternatively be used as a playroom or music room. The open plan kitchen/dining room is of a generous proportion and comprises a comprehens ively equipped kitchen with central island unit and more than ample space for a good sized table and chairs. The accommodation is completed by virtue of a utility room, which is a useful additional space and has a door leading to the outside. At first floor level the accommodation continues to impress. The master bedroom is situated over the living room and has extensive fitted wardrobes and a stylish contemporary refitted en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is again a large double and has an en-suite shower room which is in need of some modernisation. There are three further bedrooms served by a family bathroom which has a n attractive contemporary tile and modern white fitments. Externally there is ample off road parking for a minimum of three vehicles to the front whilst there is also a large double garage. The gardens to the rear are an absolutely delight being south facing and having been expertly landscaped by the present owners to an exacting and impressive specification. In addition to a good sized area of lawn there is a magnificent paved area which is hard landscaped to provide the most perfect environment for al fresco dining. Unusually for a house of this age and construction the property is not overlooked to the rear and due to it being a corner plot enjoys a far larger sized garden than that which is normal. Offering an excellent layout, a good overall specification, perfect located within walking distance of Hartford village centr e - good levels of interest are anticipated.
