Description
Cherrybank is a delightful four-bedroom, detached family home, built in 1985.  The property is of brick and block construction with rendered and colour washed elevations under a pitched tiled roof.  The accommodation  is light and well laid out, comprising entrance hall, dual-aspect sitting room with open grated hearth, dining room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, cloakroom, principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, three further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Cherrybank is much loved by the current vendors, who have reluctantly decided to sell due to ill health.  Although the current vendors have only been in occupation for little over a year they have completed a schedule of maintenance including the installation of an air source heat pump, fencing off the garden, installation of a pergola over the terrace and the re-building of the veranda to the front, as well as the upkeep and restoration of the well established garden and additional planting.

The vendors are pleased to inform the prospective buyers that they commissioned a drain survey when they purchased the property, cleared and repaired all gutters as part of the maintenance, changed all of the lightbulbs to LEDs and made some minor cosmetic lighting upgrades.  The house is ideally situated for a large solar panel installation, with an estimated return on investment of just seven years and the vendors have a highly competitive quote from a local installer.

Outside
The property is approached from the road via a private drive flanked by two lawned and heavily planted front gardens with feature blossom trees. This provides off-road parking for three to four vehicles in front of the attached double garage. This has a window to side, a single double-width up- and-over door to front, and a personnel door leading to the utility room of the main house. There is storage above, and space for appliances. Power and light are also connected. To the rear of the garage is a storeroom, which has an external door to the rear garden. 

The substantial garden, which wraps around the property, has lawned areas as well as borders with an abundance of flowers and established shrubs. The present vendors have put a lot of effort into restoring some of the garden’s key elements, regaining control over certain areas in a way that is more sustainable and lower maintenance. 

Beech hedge at the back of the house has been professionally trimmed front and back.  The soakaway that runs along the back of the house has been cleared and replaced, and the beds have been meticulously restocked. 

The house is surrounded by a path and the garden is entirely enclosed by fencing with a gate to the front of the property. The garden to the side is primarily laid to lawn with borders of shrubs and flowers that are well-stocked. To the side and rear of the property is a shaped paved terrace that provides seating under the recently-erected pergola. 

An archway leads through to the rear garden, which has been separated into two areas that are incredibly private and enclosed by high beech hedging at the rear boundary. These have well stocked borders.  To the far end of the property is a further paved terrace and shaped garden with lawn, with a separate private seating area that is enclosed by close boarded fencing and hedging. To the rear of the garage is a walkway that provides a composting area and bin storage. A gate leads to the front of the property. There are outside taps to the front and rear of the house.
