Description

This magnificent home, boasting excellent energy efficiency credentials, has been intricately constructed and designed by the current owners, offering 3,300 sq. ft. of stylish accommodation that reveals a family home infused with quality and modern design. Externally, the property enjoys a private, electric-gated position with formal lawned gardens, an adjoining paddock, and an additional paddock, totalling nearly 5.5 acres. Notably, the property is located in close proximity to Newark’s high-speed rail network, which offers direct service to London King's Cross in approximately 80 minutes.

On entering this beautiful property, you are greeted by a well-appointed utility room with granite worksurfaces and a decorative boot room, featuring a built-in coat and shoe cupboard. The open-plan family kitchen is a standout feature, ideal for those who love cooking and entertaining. It is equipped with a range of integrated quality appliances and enhanced by granite work surfaces. The kitchen is further complemented by a spacious central granite island with an integrated wine fridge and wine racks. Adjacent to the kitchen is a sitting area with bi-folding doors that seamlessly connect to the outside sun terrace. A dining area sits below the mezzanine galleried landing and features bi-folding doors to the side aspect and stairs rise to the first-floor landing. This wonderful space is further enhanced by a bespoke bar area, making it an ideal spot for socialising.

The lounge enjoys triple-aspect views and features an exposed brick fireplace with a bespoke oak beam and an inset wood-burning stove. The playroom/study is a bright and spacious area with bi-folding doors leading to a gravel sitting area and rear gardens. The ground floor accommodation is further enhanced by a high-quality cloakroom/WC, which includes a storage room.

The first-floor accommodation is accessed via a galleried landing, with views of the space below and three Velux skylight windows, allowing an abundance of light to flood in. The spacious principal suite features a well-appointed four-piece bathroom with a freestanding bath and double shower cubicle. The three remaining bedrooms on the first floor, all double rooms with views, share a spacious four-piece family bathroom with a freestanding bath. It should be noted that one of the bedrooms is currently being used as a gym.

The property is accessed through tall electric gates, leading to a driveway that provides ample off-street parking for several vehicles, including motorhomes. The formal lawn gardens and spacious semi-circular sun terrace are enclosed by low fencing, allowing for uninterrupted views of the adjacent paddock. The frontage is enhanced by a variety of native shrubs and trees, adding to the property's privacy. At the end of a shared driveway, there is an additional grass paddock covering approximately 4.5 acres. In total, the house, grounds, and paddocks span approximately 5.5 acres.

Agent's Note: If the new purchaser does not require the paddock land, it can be retained by the current owners.
