Description
The property enjoys a wonderful position set back from the road and accessed via a long private gravel driveway, which opens to a generous gravel parking area accommodating several vehicles and leading to a cart lodge and adjoining garage/workshop. The property was largely re-built in 2010 to a spacious and luxury barn style dwelling offering extremely versatile and beautifully presented accommodation.
The accommodation comprises a welcoming reception hall area with stairs to a vaulted landing above. The kitchen/breakfast family room is fitted with bespoke cabinetry, solid oak work surfaces with inset one and a half sink unit with matching preparation island/ breakfast bar. There are a range of integral appliances including a four ring ceramic hob, double oven extractor and under counter fridge plus space for an American style fridge/freezer and dishwasher. The bespoke kitchen cabinetry is mirrored in the utility room which also has space for all the usual white goods.
There are two large reception rooms including a triple aspect sitting room with wood burning stove and a dual aspect drawing room with attractive wood paneling. Just off the kitchen is a dining room area, office and cloakroom/WC.
Upstairs, off the galleried landing are five good sized bedrooms plus a luxury en suite shower room to the master bedroom and a four piece family bathroom which includes a separate shower cubicle and free standing bath tub. Bedroom two has a walk in closet which could easily be converted into another en suite should a purchaser require.
Outside, the gardens and grounds extend to over 0.34 acres and is laid mainly to lawn with well stocked flower borders and beds, a wide selection of trees and bushes, a generous part covered patio area. Nestled at the back of the garden is a timber lodge which would make an ideal home office space or indeed somewhere to pursue a hobby. All enjoy maximum levels of privacy and seclusion.
