W ITH a growing family, Peter and Lynne Williamson had their eyes open for a bigger house, and when this came on the market they jumped at the chance.

But there again, living across the road they were ideally placed to spot the 'For Sale' sign.

Peter said: "We were living in a two bedroom bungalow across the road, and with two children we wanted somewhere bigger and had always admired this house because we thought it would make a great family home and it has."

That was some 20 years ago, and in the years since they have extended and improved it, adding about a third to the floor space and making some quite stunning rooms. But the one constant has been, in Peter's words, 'it's just the best family home.'

The house is at Stephens Way, Bignall End, and your first step through the front door should indicate to you that the quality here is several levels above the norm because you walk on Karndean engineered oak flooring, which is very nice and hard wearing.

To one side is a loo, and you then come to the inner hallway, which continues the flooring and has a most eye-catching staircase made from a pale ash. More of this later.

There is a nice sized bay fronted lounge with a living flame, coal effect gas fire and a dining area which has patio doors leading to the back.

One thing that struck me was how light the interior is. With ample glazing, the patio doors and the light wood flooring, the house seems to glow with daylight.

Peter said: "It is a nice, light house and I think it makes it feel much warmer and more welcoming."
