The Property
Lovingly and carefully updated by the current owners the property has been finished to a truly exceptional standard. The interiors have been tastefully designed to provide extremely practical and comfortable living spaces which remain flexible either for family life or entertaining on a large scale.
An enormous amount of thought has gone into the layout of the accommodation with provision made for multi generational living if required within the main house.
The front door opens to a wide hall which leads seamlessly past the spacious cloakroom with wc and into a deeply impressive kitchen, dining and family room which forms the heart of the house. This space must be seen to be believed and is flooded with light from, roof lanterns, large windows and glazed doors opening onto the garden. Top of the range integrated appliances are fitted throughout the kitchen which is centred around a large central island. This area flows flawlessly into a relaxed entertaining area with space for sofas arranged around a fireplace fitted with a wood burning stove. There is also a dining table, perfect for casual suppers, as well as a separate dining area for larger gatherings.
Leading off the family room is a separate sitting room which has a superb vaulted ceiling with painted exposed beams that lend the room a unique sense of scale and height. This design, coupled with wide bi-fold doors, opening onto a terrace and enjoying expansive views of the garden, provides the room with natural light while the wood burning stove in the fireplace makes it an ideal space to enjoy cosy winter evenings.
There is a further reception room, currently arranged as a games room which is again vaulted to roof height and makes an ideal room for informal relaxation, again enjoying delightful garden views. A cleverly arranged study area with ample built in storage provides a link to a ground floor double bedroom complete with en suite shower room. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a spacious and practical utility room with space and plumbing for both washing machine and tumble dryer as well as built in storage cupboards, a sink and back door to outside.
On the first floor a central landing provides access to the further bedrooms all of which have en suite facilities. The master bedroom suite overlooks the garden and has a large walk in wardrobe / dressing room as well as a beautifully finished en suite bathroom with both separate shower and free standing roll-top bath. The guest bedroom is exquisite with built in wardrobes and French windows opening onto a balcony which overlooks the garden and fields beyond and, with a table and chairs, makes the perfect spot to relax. The guest bedroom also features an en suite shower room. The two remaining double bedrooms upstairs are also beautifully finished with detailed thought given to storage arrangements as well as both having individual en suite shower rooms.
Externally
The house is approached over a private drive and parking area which lies adjacent to both the house and detached garage. The majority of the gardens lie to the rear. This outside space is beautifully landscaped and with the benefit of a southerly aspect enjoys sunshine all day long. Immediately to the rear of the house is a large paved terrace ideal for outdoor dining. The garden is level and laid mainly to lawn with close board fencing at the borders. In the garden is a fully insulated garden room complete with separate shower room. This building would make an ideal home office, studio or outdoor sitting room.
