Kintyre, Hambleton

Kintyre is an individually built stone residence boasting approximately 5000sqft of accommodation, positioned in an idyllic spot on the edge of the sought-after Rutland village of Hambleton. The property occupies a large plot of approximately 3.5 acres, with outstanding views of Rutland Water.

The property was exclusively designed and built for the current owners, with well-presented accommodation comprising a sizeable entrance hall which is open to the mezzanine floor above, cloakroom, two good-size reception rooms to the front currently both used for study/home office, large open-plan living dining room with stone feature fireplace and two sets of French double doors onto the terrace, hand-built breakfast kitchen with walk-in pantry and a separate utility room. The first floor offers four double bedrooms, all with ensuite bathrooms, three with balconies enjoying views of Rutland Water. The mezzanine area gives a second staircase which leads to a large attic room with planning permission to create further accommodation (plumbing/electrics have already been put into place for this).

In addition to the main house, the property also offers ancillary accommodation in the form of a detached self-contained summerhouse/home office at the end of the garden. The space offers a kitchen, open plan living space, separate room and bathroom. Having previously been used as a home office, it has the flexibility to be used as an annexe, gym etc. 

Externally, the property is approached by a gated gravelled driveway giving off-road parking for several cars. Double gates to the side lead to the rear garden, with brick built outbuildings, vegetable gardens and a good size lawned area with patio terrace for alfresco dining, taking in the open views. The paddock is well-fenced, with a wooden shelter/haystore having previously been used for grazing two/three horses.

Offered to the market with NO CHAIN.
