A beautifully refurbished and extended five bedroom detached house in wonderful gardens of just over half an acre.
DESCRIPTION Finished to an exacting standard with a modernist style by Park Edge Homes, this five-bedroom, three-bathroom residence spans over 3500 sq ft including the garage. It offers ample family space with three expansive reception rooms, nestled within a meticulously maintained and supremely private south-facing plot exceeding half an acre. The home boasts river access via an adjacent lane, with potential for constructing a boat mooring or landing stage. The property has been transformed through careful renovation, modernisation, and expansion, culminating in a signature property that embodies modern living. Points to note include a 31ft well equipped kitchen/dining/family room with central island and adjacent utility room, a 23ft lounge with garden access via sliding doors and a wood-burning stove, alongside a study with picturesque views of the gardens. On the first floor, there are five substantial bedrooms, with the principal and guest suites benefiting from en-suite facilities. A luxurious family bathroom with brushed brass fixtures serves the three other bedrooms. The design ethos of Fair Beeches is characterised by voluminous rooms, filled with light, enhanced by the strategic placement of oversized windows. Set back from the road, the house has an attractive appearance with rendered and clad elevations, sitting prominently within its grounds, complemented by a large driveway leading to a double garage with automated roller doors. The rear garden offers a generous expanse of lawn, bordered by flourishing beds and mature trees that ensure utmost privacy with an extensive patio space. To truly appreciate the scale, setting, craftsmanship, and the unique setting, a viewing is recommended.

Establish funds
How will you fund the purchase?
Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.
Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.
To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.
They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.
However advantages of working with your bank are:
You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
