A Substantial Family Home In The Heart Of Kingswood With Five Bedrooms And Generous Gardens.

Built in the 1960s and offered for the first time to the market, Burbank is a fabulous Mid-Century home situated in the heart of Kingswood. The property enjoys a fantastically leafy setting, with established perimeter hedges creating a wonderfully private and secluded plot of about three quarters of an acre. Internally the house retains much of its period character, with many wellpreserved, original features. Burbank would be an excellent home for someone who appreciates the Mid-Century Modern aesthetic and its strong visual link between indoor and outdoor spaces, equally this home offers masses of scope for buyers looking to make their own mark through redevelopment and modernisation.
The internal proportions of the house feel light and spacious, with large windows providing excellent natural light throughout. The generous room sizes lend the house well to family life, while the flexible layout – with much of the accommodation on the first floor – means there is great versatility to the floor plan. The
bedrooms are situated separately to the living accommodation, but could equally be used as further reception rooms, study or home office spaces if desired.
The double-height ceiling to the entrance hall gives a feeling of lightness and grandeur and acts as a natural division between the living spaces and bedrooms. The large reception room at the front of the house incorporates both a dual aspect living areaand a dining room, also with windows on two sides and character
features such as stone and wood walls, and beamed ceilings. The kitchen/breakfast room has the original tile and cabinetry, with a copper extraction hood above the island creating a striking focal feature. Sliding glazed doors open onto the rear terrace from the breakfast nook, extending the living space into the garden in the warmer months.
On the opposite side of the house there are five spacious double bedrooms, including a principal suite with ensuite bathroom and roof terrace, a further bedroom with two dressing rooms and access to the roof terrace, an ensuite double bedroom and two further bedrooms which share a family bathroom. A staircase leads down to the ground floor where there is relaxed living accommodation including a wood-panelled library, forming a further reception room with its own separate entrance, and a large utility room with an internal doorway to the double garage. From here there is entry to the indoor pool which has been thoughtfully designed with private changing facilities - each with their own cloakrooms - a shower room, sauna, steam room and bar area. Additionally bi-folding doors open out on to the terrace creating a large entertaining space. The pool itself is a good size and features a built-in hot tub.
