Meadow Lane, South Heath, HP16

Electrically-operated gates open onto the Cotswold stone driveway in front of the house which has a very pleasing symmetrical facade and covered exterior porch. To the left of the entrance hall there is a study (currently used as a music room) with fitted shelving and to the right the dual aspect sitting room has a wood-burning stove and French doors to the gardens. The heart of the home lies to the rear of the house and comprises a fabulous 35 ft x 22 ft open-plan kitchen/dining area and family room with a bank of attractive built-in cupboards and cabinets. Bifold doors on two sides offer lovely views of the garden and wood-effect porcelain flooring lends itself to creating a fabulous entertainment space winter and summer alike. The kitchen features quartz stone worktops, integrated Neff appliances including an induction hob with an integrated ventilation system and a wine fridge. The utility room and cloakroom and cloak cupboard complete the ground floor accommodation.
Rising to the first floor and the semi-galleried landing with a "reading area", there are four large bedrooms, two of which have en suite shower rooms. The principal bedroom is magnificent and very spacious. With four Velux windows and bifold doors to the Juliet balcony, it makes the most of natural light. Fitted wardrobes have mirrored doors and the shower room has two basins. The two remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom which has a large walk-in shower and a jacuzzi bathtub. All bathrooms have underfloor heating and rain-forest shower heads.

Outside

In addition to the double garage, there is ample parking space on the Cotswold stone drive. A Cotswold stone terrace in front of the house makes the most of the morning sun. The gardens to the rear are utterly delightful. Enclosed by fencing, they are very private and largely laid to lawn with well-stocked borders and a terraced area adjoining the house. A winding path meanders to the summer house at the end of garden. This has plumbing, power and wi-fi. An attractive vine-clad pergola completes the scene.
