Built in 1932, The Ridings presents an exciting opportunity to acquire a significant four bedroom detached home of generous mid-century proportions. Situated within a large wrap-around plot, the property is located within easy reach of the town centre and all local amenities that Woodstock has to offer.
From the road, the property boasts a commanding position with a handsome faade. A private in-and-out driveway sets the property back and offers ample provision for off road parking. Once inside, the central hallway leads to a series of bright and versatile living spaces which flow throughout the ground floor. To the right is a large reception room and adjoining sun room with French doors framing the beautifully curated rear garden. The sociable kitchen/dining room forms the heart of the property and is bathed in a wonderful quality of natural light, afforded by the glazed bi-fold doors and large lantern skylight overhead. There is also a second sunroom which can be enjoyed throughout the year, an office, utility room and W.C. for added convenience.
The four bedrooms, including the principal bedroom with ensuite, occupy the first floor in addition to the family bathroom
Externally, the south facing private rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped by Nicholsons to create a wonderful indoor-outdoor experience. Large expanses of carefully maintained lawns encompass the property and create a haven for local wildlife. A terraced area at the front provides the perfect spot for alfresco dinner parties, evening drinks, and peaceful early morning coffees whilst the rear section has a dedicated vegetable patch. The property also offers a garage with driveway parking to accommodate several vehicles and an electric car charging point.
