Description
THE PROPERTY
Tucked away down a no through gravelled lane in a stunning position, first glimpses of this magical property are most impressive with its brick and stone façade under a pitched slate roof. On first entering the property there is a real sense of charm, space, and light, with a large porch/boot room with pretty tiled flooring which leads through into a fantastic sitting room boasting truly stunning views with a large inglenook style fireplace and wood burning stove. Stone steps lead down to a superb garden room with tiled flooring and French doors leading out to a paved terrace taking full advantage of the most incredible far reaching countryside views. Alongside is a lovely family kitchen incorporating a number of most attractive wall and base units, a professional Rangemaster oven, and stone flooring. To one end is a large dining area with plenty of room for a kitchen/dining table with doors leading out to yet another terrace ideal for al fresco dining. There is no better place to sit and enjoy the most tranquil and pleasant setting. Alongside the kitchen is a utility room and also on the ground floor is separate cloakroom.
The principal bedrooms are situated on the first floor with three beautiful and sizeable bedrooms all with stunning views all with their own en suite bath and shower rooms. There is also a large landing with a window seat which would also make a great study area.
On the second floor are two further bedrooms and a large bathroom, ideal for teenagers and/or guests. The views from up here are breathtaking.
THE LINHAY
Alongside the main property is a superb building known as 'The Linhay' which is currently used as a very successful holiday rental and it is not difficult to see why. The property is beautifully spacious and light, with a fantastic reception room with wooden flooring and open plan kitchen and wood burning stove. Double doors open out to a pretty wooden decked terrace. There are also three bedrooms, one with an en suite bathroom and also a separate wet room. The property is far enough away not to encroach on the main property and with its own parking and privacy.
OUTSIDE
The gardens and grounds lie south of the main house with a garden mainly laid to lawn and opening out to a large field of approximately 7 acres giving total protection, a utopia for children and animals. There is an orchard with established fruit trees, a private woodland copse to the north of the property with mature oaks, bluebells, wild garlic etc, a chicken run, log & machinery store, and plenty of parking.
All in all, this is a truly wonderful property in an idyllic yet very convenient location.
