Six Mile Bottom Road, West Wratting

A handsome, detached family residence, providing 157 sqm (1698 sqft) of bright contemporary accommodation, with a private garden, insulated studio/office, and ample parking. Although built in 2002, the property has a traditional period feel but with all the benefits of modern construction

Set back from the road on a residential village road, the property has been beautifully updated and maintained by the current owners and seamlessly blends traditional and contemporary features. The current owners have completely updated the accommodation, refitting the kitchen, cloakroom and en-suite, adding a modern, herringbone floor in most reception areas, building a useful home office, and having the garden professionally landscaped.

Yew Tree House is approached over a gravelled drive that provides parking for several vehicles, with shrub borders that screen the property from the road, an EV charger, and the oil tank discreetly tucked away from view. There is a bespoke storm porch that gives protection from the elements as you go in and the entrance hall is a lovely space for welcoming guests into your home, with a large built in cupboard, plenty of space for storing coats and shoes and an attractive staircase rising to the first floor. The property has three versatile reception areas, with the layout of the house perfect for families or couples alike. The sitting room is an elegant room and has a real sense of peace. The room is dual aspect with a modern stone fireplace inset with a log burner, and there is an exposed beam and patio doors leading out to the garden. The second reception area flows through from the entrance hall to a lovely dining space overlooking the garden, this is a great social or family space with room for sitting or for children to play. The adjacent kitchen is beautifully fitted with contemporary cabinetry set above and below stone working surfaces. There is space for a range cooker with extractor over, an integrated dishwasher, and space for an American style fridge freezer. The kitchen also features a large island with a matching stone worksurface, a breakfast bar and further storage below. The utility room is conveniently positioned off the kitchen and has a second sink, storage cupboards, space and plumbing for a washing machine and drier, and a door out to the garden. The ground floor is completed by a contemporary cloakroom with a w.c. and handbasin and a generous study that would equally make a great playroom or snug.

On the first floor, a large window provides natural light over the stairwell, landing, and hallway below and there is an attractive balustrade with turned spindles and handrail. The landing has a built in cupboard and opens to four double bedrooms and a family bathroom fitted with a bath with shower over, w.c. and hand basin. The main bedroom overlooks the rear garden and very comfortably takes a super king bed with plenty of space to spare, there is a dressing room with fitted wardrobes leading through to a luxurious en-suite, fitted with a large shower enclosure, w.c., and twin hand basins inset to a vanity cabinet. There are three additional double bedrooms, one of which has a feature paneled wall.

Outside the rear garden enjoys the same attention to detail. The garden is set over different levels and benefits from a high degree of privacy. It is south west facing to enjoy the best of the afternoon and evening sunshine and has areas for dining, entertaining friends or just relaxing at the end of a busy day, whilst for the children there is a climbing wall, small nature pond and a slide. There is a choice of sitting areas including a generous terrace adjacent to the house, a decked area in the far corner with views between the rooftops to open countryside, or a sun deck/sitting area accessed over a flight of steps. The office/garden studio is tucked in the far corner and there is a timber shed and raised vegetable beds. The studio is fully insulated and has wired internet, power, and light, currently it is split into two areas with the larger room having an air conditioning unit. The studio could be opened up into one space if preferred, and would be perfect as a home office, gym or kids den. There is pedestrian access via a secure gate from the rear garden to the front of the property on one side, and a wide garden to the other side houses a shed and bike store that can be accessed from either the front or rear.
