Finches End is a highly regarded close of detached houses, built approximately 10 years
ago, close to the centre of Walkern village. No. 17 has been improved and extended by
the present owners to create unusually spacious accommodation which includes three
living rooms, together with a study, and five bedrooms, three of which have en suite
facilities. Other features include a recently refitted kitchen with granite work surfaces
and a large conservatory. We understand that planning consent has also been obtained
for a further loft extension to create an additional bedroom, dressing room and bathroom,
with a further consent to improve the conservatory to create a garden room. The gardens
lie predominantly to the south east and south west of the house and are, therefore,
extremely sunny. There is also a double garage, together with brick-paved hardstanding
for other vehicles.
