THERE are any number of prospective home owners who would love to build their own home, but sure that the whole process is fraught with difficulties decide that it is far simpler to let someone else do all the hard work.

Fortunately the owners of this five-year-old property in Cullingworth had no such qualms.

“We’d built a small development of five houses once before, but said we would never do it again. Then we sold our home and because we knew about this plot of land, decided to give it another go, and luckily it all went smoothly and only took seven months.”

Part of the lure, was the location of the house – down a private road, surrounded by trees, yet within a short walk of all the amenities of the village of Cullingworth.

Brookside will almost certainly appeal to the more discerning purchaser seeking a home of quality and distinction. This home was individually designed and was constructed to provide quality family living accommodation which includes gas.

“Very often when you build your own home it appears smaller than you thought it would be, but in this instance the interior seemed to be larger than expected.”

Together with uPVC double glazing and fitted alarm system, the house also benefits from quality kitchen, bathroom and en-suite facilities.

Outside the property is complemented by great gardens, access via private driveway to large parking area, integral double garage, beautifully presented landscaped gardens with extensive lawned areas, paved patio, flowerbeds, trees and shrubs all backing onto the stream at the bottom of the garden.

The house has a lovely flow to it, with a reception hall, cloakroom, separate WC, a dual aspect lounge and a sitting room overlooking the front of the house.

The dining kitchen offers a range of quality base and wall units, laminate work surfaces, built in double oven, five ring gas hob with extractor above, one and a half inset stainless steel sink unit with drainer, mixer tap, tiled splashbacks, spot lighting, radiator and plumbing for automatic dishwasher.

There is also a useful utility room with door to the garden.

Finally on the ground floor is the family room with window to the rear elevation and patio doors overlooking superb gardens.

Upstairs is a superb spacious suite with windows to the front and rear elevation enjoying a pleasant aspect and an en suite shower room, bedroom two with window to the front elevation, fitted wardrobe, and an en suite shower room, and bedroom three, also with an en suite shower room and windows on two sides with lovely views. Bedroom four enjoys a pleasant aspect and access to the loft.

The bathroom is a quality four piece white suite. “Since moving in we’ve completely revamped the en suites and the bathroom.”

The property is complemented by beautifully presented landscaped gardens with mature shrubs, trees, flowerbeds and extensive lawned areas, paved patio covered barbecue area all enjoying a fine aspect towards the stream at the bottom of the garden.

“We are really going to miss the tranquillity of where the house is, and the wildlife that makes its home here.”
