Brayton Gardens, Enfield

Set on an elevated plot in this quiet residential road this handsome double-fronted detached house enjoys wide ranging views from its first-floor windows and offers well-balanced accommodation across two floors. A welcoming entrance hall leads to a light and airy front lounge with a broad bay window capturing the morning sun. To the rear, an extension has created a spacious reception/dining room where twin skylights pour in natural light and French doors open directly onto the patio and garden, making the space ideal for relaxed family living or entertaining. The adjoining kitchen is generously fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units, plentiful work-surfaces and integrated appliances, while a discreet utility cupboard keeps laundry tasks neatly out of sight. Completing the ground floor is a versatile bedroom or study, perfect for guests or home working, that benefits from its own modern en-suite shower room.

Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms with the front aspect taking full advantage of the property's elevated aspect, and a smart family bathroom serves the floor. Outside, the rear garden offers a sun-trap patio with shallow steps up to a lawn framed by mature flower and shrub borders, with side access returning to the front driveway.
