Detached house for sale in Street BA16, 5 Bedroom

More here than meets the eye! The Auklands is an imposing detached residence nestled in a secluded position near the heart of the town. It offers substantial living accommodation surrounded by private gardens and has the potential for an entirely self contained annexe should buyers so wish. Early viewing is essential to avoid disappointment.

Approached traditionally from the front, the reception hallway has double doors to a big south facing reception room, also with further double patio doors leading out onto the terrace and garden. The magnificently proportioned kitchen has ample space for a central breakfast table and a similar outlook over the south-facing gardens. A second sitting room, study, two downstairs cloakrooms, and dining room with doors out to the rear garden complete the ground floor accommodation of the main house together with adjoining utility room with recently installed boiler and immersion tank. The house has the benefit of secondary access with doors to the garage and out to a substantial workshop that has electricity, heating and double doors to the rear garden. There are 12 solar panels that currently generate an income of approximately £1700 per annum.

Upstairs there is a substantial master bedroom that looks out over the garden and an ensuite shower room adjoining. There are three further large double bedrooms serviced by a central family bathroom. Above the garage is another good sized room that could be used as a fabulous games/children’s room, home office or utilised as as a sitting room for secondary accommodation as it has separate access from ground floor.

The gardens are well laid out with lawn and flower beds to the front with a large south facing terrace area ideal for al-fresco dining or entertaining. To the rear is a further area of private garden which is enclosed and has raised vegetable beds and a greenhouse.
