3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Bridle Lane, Slindon Common BN18

Beautifully modernised 1930s home combining period charm with stylish contemporary living, superb open-plan kitchen/family space and a generous garden.

Originally believed to date from the 1930s, this attractive home has been the subject of an extensive yet sympathetic programme of modernisation and extension by the present owners since 2023. The result is an impressive blend of traditional charm and character with beautifully appointed, contemporary accommodation designed for today's modern lifestyle.

The property is approached via twin five-bar gates which open onto a generous gravelled front garden, attractively enclosed by mature hedging on three sides. There is ample off-road parking for three vehicles, leading to a newly constructed 33ft tandem garage with a remote-controlled roller door.

The welcoming entrance hall provides access to a cloakroom and the principal reception rooms. The traditional sitting room retains a lovely sense of character, centred around a feature open fireplace.

A particular highlight is the superb open-plan everyday living space, thoughtfully designed to create a bright and sociable heart to the home. The stylish Shaker-style kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of sage-green wall and floor units, complemented by quartz work surfaces, a breakfast bar and traditional butler sink. Integrated appliances include a Neff Slide & Hide oven and Neff combination microwave oven, Neff induction hob, extractor hood, fridge/freezer, wine cooler and slimline dishwasher.

The kitchen flows seamlessly into an L-shaped dining, family and sun room, with a striking roof lantern above the dining area providing an abundance of natural light. Two sets of French doors open directly onto the south-east-facing patio, creating an ideal setting for both everyday family living and entertaining. A separate utility/boot room is conveniently accessed from both the kitchen area and entrance hall.

On the first floor are three bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom. The guest bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room.

The long rear garden is another appealing feature, with a generous, paved patio providing an excellent space for outdoor dining and entertaining, complemented by a newly created ornamental fishpond. Beyond is an extensive lawn bordered by established planting, with a timber garden building at the far end, providing a useful home office or equally suited to use as a gym or hobby room.

Further features include mains gas-fired underfloor heating to the ground floor and attractive retro-style radiators to the first floor. The property is on mains drainage.
