Description
Owners Comments:
“We absolutely love living here, the rooms are so spacious, it’s a lovely warm home, but the air conditioning comes into its own on those hot summer days and nights, ensuring a comfortable night’s sleep. Our large lounge area is great for entertaining. The Annex allowed for my mum to live here comfortably, integrated within the family but still with her own independent space. The annex would equally suit a teenager. The pool has provided us with many endless wonderful memories of time enjoyed with family and friends. Weather is never an issue as on sunny days, the doors are thrown open and when the English weather is at its worst, we can be snug and cosy in its warm water - often finished off with a sauna!
The South facing garden is the most amazing entertaining space, when the suns out, you benefit from it all day, its great for parties or simply relaxing in privacy. Our neighbours are fabulous. This would most definitely be our forever home, however, with one daughter married and resident in Australia and a son and his family now heading their too, we have made the decision that our future also lies overseas in Australia”.

Agent Notes
The current owners applied for planning permission and were granted a loft extension consisting of 3 ensuite bedrooms and office area. All steel work was completed and inspected, but as the owners children grew up and moved out during this process, they decided not to go ahead with the work. Architects drawings and structural engineers calculations are available. Also, planning permission was granted to extend the changing rooms and games room and therefore would most likely be granted again, offering even more potential.
