Description

Tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac in sought-after Emmer Green, this substantially extended five-bedroom detached home offers nearly 2,400 sq ft of stylish and versatile living space. Recently refurbished to a high standard by the current owners, the property is perfect for modern family life and includes a self-contained annex — ideal for multi-generational living or guest accommodation.

The property has been thoughtfully upgraded throughout, with highlights including four contemporary bathrooms, new flooring and internal doors, and the addition of a superb garden room/office equipped with power, lighting, air conditioning, and heating — making it ideal for remote working or creative pursuits.

On the upper ground floor, the home welcomes you with a spacious and light-filled entrance hall/dining area, which sets the tone for the rest of the property. There is also an extremely handy shower room, perfect for boots and coats. From here, you are led into a beautifully presented 20ft kitchen/breakfast room, which enjoys a dual aspect and is fitted with an extensive range of modern units, solid wood worktops, and high-end appliances, including an island with hob and extractor. A single back door provides seamless access to the garden, perfect for indoor-outdoor living.

Descending to the lower ground floor, you’ll find a generous 19ft living room with sliding doors opening directly onto the rear garden, creating a wonderful flow of natural light. This level also accommodates the self-contained annex — currently laid out as a private reception room, double bedroom with en suite, and a utility room that could serve as a kitchen, offering complete independence.

The bedroom accommodation is equally well planned. The first level has two double bedrooms, one with en suite, then the top floor has one double, one single and a large family bathroom.

Externally, the property sits on a generous plot with block-paved driveway parking for several vehicles, a 16ft garage, and side access. The tiered rear garden is both private and tranquil, thoughtfully landscaped with mature planting, level lawns, and a spacious patio — ideal for entertaining and family life. The detached garden room/office enhances the home’s flexibility, whether for work, leisure, or guests.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a spacious and flexible family home in one of Emmer Green’s most desirable settings, complete with a ready-to-use annex for extended family or guest accommodation.
