Nestled down one of Finchampstead Village’s most desirable roads, The Lilacs presents the perfect opportunity for anyone looking to buy a versatile home that has been finished to an incredibly high standard.

Upon approach, the house is extremely imposing and has plenty of kerb appeal and has a driveway to host four vehicles with ease. Stepping into the hallway gives you a great idea of the space ahead, with plenty of room to remove coats and shoes. Immediately to the right, there is a living room that is large enough to host family gatherings, with a decorative fireplace at the centre. This room, and most of this grand home, benefits from ample natural light due to its dual aspect outlook. To the left-hand side of the property, is a secondary living/dining room which spans the whole property, measuring 26ft in length. This space has an additional fireplace, creating additional character for this modern family home, as well as patio doors allowing for rear garden access and providing another dual aspect space. Walking through this living area, you will find yourself in a storage room, which can be used as a waiting room for people who run an at-home business, as has remote access. This space provides access to the downstairs spacious study, and up a separate staircase you will find an isolated secondary study room, that has also been used as a guest bedroom before giving the potential for this to be a five-bedroom home.

A large square-shaped kitchen can be found on the opposite side of the house, with that all-important central island, to allow for casual dining. Ample storage options encompass the whole space and the owners have even installed a very desirable Range cooker. The kitchen lies open plan to the final living area, which takes form in a conservatory area, which can be used during the winter months thanks to additional radiators and again, provides access to the manicured garden. A downstairs toilet concludes the downstairs accommodation. Genius Hub provides the smart heating for this home, whereas a number of rooms have the addition of Sonos.

As you make your way upstairs in this home, you will take time to appreciate the chapel style window that allows light to pool into the whole house. It is a real feature and was even something that the current owners felt swung their decision to buy the property, over a decade ago. A spacious hallway offers decent separation and privacy for each double bedroom. The master suite is impressive and benefits from masses of floorspace as well as a modernised en-suite, which has been finished in a wet room style with underfloor heating. Three other bedrooms can be found here, two of which are very generous and have plenty of space for multiple wardrobes. The family bathroom has been expertly designed by the owners and has been finished to an incredibly high specification. The four-piece fully tiled bathroom includes a luxurious bathtub and wet room style shower, as well as a double sink and underfloor heating. The storage space is also impressive with a partially boarded loft and large airing cupboard.

Externally, you can really appreciate the beauty and care that has gone into this home. The lawn is manicured to perfection and has several mature flowerbeds and a small pond. Two patio areas have been created, so that the current owners, who are sunworshippers, can enjoy always capturing the sunshine in the day. The double garage has been semi-converted to incorporate a fully functional gym, this space has been fully insulated with bi-fold doors and underfloor heating – so no excuse to not work out in winter for this one… The other side of the garage has been improved to be a robust storage outbuilding and even the eaves space has been converted to provide insulated storage, with a proper staircase allowing you to access with ease. Another wooden shed structure with power has been installed.
