Set within a plot of over 1.75 acres and with significant outbuildings, including a triple garage and a barn with planning permission in place for a 2-bedroom annexe.

This wonderful home is perfect for those seeking a large family house in great condition and set rural location and of a manageable size.

Description.

A long, private driveway sweeps up to the house beside an avenue of hedgerow, opening out to a young orchard. This former farmhouse enjoys a traditional entrance hall that leads onto a large study to the left with a dual aspect and a second internal door to the rear. Beyond this is an impressive utility/boot room with a boiler/drying room, and access to a downstairs bathroom with walk in shower.

Across the entrance hall is a perfectly appointed kitchen where floor to ceiling cabinets encompass an entire wall, complimented by a large induction hob, two ovens and built in microwave. There is plenty of space to add a kitchen island if desired.

Internal bifold doors lead into the open plan dining and sitting areas which are flooded with natural light thanks to the Velux windows above. These rooms also benefit from underfloor heating and make this a very light and spacious family room indeed and with a pair of French doors that lead out to to a sandstone patio creating a wonderful space to entertain during the warmer months too.

Upstairs, the primary bedroom with ensuite enjoys a dual aspect across the property. There are two further double bedrooms, served by a family bathroom and the second floor offers two equally spacious bedrooms and a fourth bathroom with walk in shower. These rooms benefit from the easy to access storage within the eves and there is further loft storage on the first floor also.

Outside.

This property has been beautifully restored to show the original stonework at its very best. The stone match on the extended parts shows equal attention to detail that has been paid to each part of this property.

There is a double and single garage of fine proportions, fully equipped with electric roll over doors and a useful porched area offers covered storage whilst linking the building to a separate and rather beautiful, stone built barn. Planning remains for conversion into a detached two-bedroom annexe and although not acted on by the current owners, they have replaced the roof and dressed the building with oak doors and facade. There is further scope for a home office or studio above the garaging.

The grounds have been landscaped to offer spacious seating areas and low maintenance, level lawns with maturing hedgerows that boarder the entire property whilst retaining views across the open countryside.
This is a very special property that has been remodelled with the upmost care and attention, and this can be felt throughout this stunning family home. It truly is the best of both worlds, with views for miles and plenty of private gardens to enjoy in a tranquil location.
