Description

Situated in a fabulous semi-rural position just moments from Bisham Woods, with its many walking trails, is this handsome detached family home. To the rear there is a wonderful lawned garden and beyond open farmland over which there are magnificent country views. Internally the home has been well maintained by the vendor with a traditional country-style décor scheme, yet it offers fantastic potential for further enhancement and personalisation by the incoming purchaser with good scope to extend further if desired (subject to obtaining the necessary consents).

The accommodation amounts to more than 2100 sq ft and is generously proportioned throughout. The large entrance hall opens to a sizeable double-aspect sitting room, study, formal dining room, breakfast room with adjoining conservatory and fully fitted kitchen which also provides internal access to the garage. On the first floor is the generous principal bedroom with an en suite bathroom and wonderful countryside views, an additional double bedroom with en suite facilities and fitted wardrobes and two further good-size bedrooms while a family bathroom completes the accommodation.

Robin Hill is situated in a quiet position, set back from the road behind a well-sized private driveway with parking for several vehicles and access to an integral double garage. The front garden features a number of shrubs providing year-round interest, while to the rear there is a lovely garden comprising a large level lawn flanked with well-stocked flower beds and mature hedges. A spacious raised patio provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining with far-reaching views over the countryside beyond.
