Description

QUOTE REF NR0608

Welcome to Darkinson Lane — An Exceptional Countryside Retreat with Endless Potential

Tucked away in a beautiful rural setting surrounded by open countryside, this impressive detached residence offers the perfect blend of peaceful living with convenient access to major road networks and motorway links just minutes away.

Occupying a substantial plot, the property boasts an expansive roll-on, roll-off driveway, a large integral garage, and a stunning south-facing garden that backs onto open farmland — offering a true sense of countryside tranquillity.

As you step through the elegant arched double doors, you are welcomed by a bright and spacious entrance hallway, flooded with natural light from twin side windows and a central skylight. A beautifully crafted staircase leads to the first floor, while a generously sized cloakroom adds a practical touch.

The property features two impressive reception rooms:

A front-facing lounge with dual windows providing lovely natural light.

A second, large sitting room with a charming log-burning stove and picturesque views of the rear garden through a large window and French doors.
This space flows effortlessly into the heart of the home — a truly stunning, supersized kitchen. Fitted with a wide range of high-quality wall and base units topped with sleek granite worktops, the kitchen also offers space for a large American-style fridge freezer, dishwasher, and a feature range-style gas cooker. A spacious dining area easily accommodates a family table, while a breakfast bar offers additional informal seating.

Off the kitchen, you’ll find a well-appointed utility room with additional cabinetry, worktops, and plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer. It also provides internal access to the garage and a door leading out to the garden.

Completing the ground floor is a versatile room that can serve as a fourth double bedroom, home office, or playroom. This room benefits from a stylish three-piece ensuite bathroom that can also be accessed from the hallway — ideal for guests or multi-generational living.

First Floor
Upstairs, the expansive layout continues to impress with an abundance of storage and further scope to enhance or reconfigure.

The principal bedroom enjoys both front and rear aspects, twin built-in storage cupboards, and a brand-new luxury ensuite shower room. A separate adjoining space is currently used as a home office with excellent storage, offering potential to convert into a walk-in dressing room.

There are two further exceptionally large double bedrooms, both with lovely countryside views and generous built-in storage. One of these rooms could easily accommodate the addition of another ensuite if desired.

A beautifully appointed four-piece family bathroom completes the first floor, featuring a double shower, bath, WC, and wash hand basin.

Outside
The exterior of the property is just as impressive. The expansive driveway provides effortless roll-on, roll-off parking and leads to the integral double garage. A wide side access path takes you through to the rear garden — a true standout feature. This south-facing outdoor space is bordered by open farmland, offering uninterrupted rural views. Thoughtfully landscaped, the garden features a large gravelled area, patio seating, and a charming summerhouse, perfect for relaxing or entertaining.

 
If you’re seeking a spacious home with character, versatility, and the serenity of countryside living — all without sacrificing accessibility — this remarkable property on Darkinson Lane is not to be missed.

It can get stressful, but speak to your agent and your solicitor and they will put you in the picture
