Description

Built in the 1980s, Rotherfield is a detached family residence set in an enviable elevated position on the edge of the sought-after village of Cold Ash. Nestled within approximately 0.3 of an acre, the property boasts beautifully landscaped gardens and breath-taking views boarding the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The welcoming entrance hall leads to several versatile reception spaces most notably the sitting room/family room to the rear of the house which sets the tone for the generous proportions throughout this house. This room has a large mantlepiece and wood burning stove and there are patio doors to the sun terrace. To the front of the house there is currently a home office/study and fifth bedroom but these spaces have several different options. The kitchen/breakfast room is to the front of the house and has plenty of room for dining offering a practical family hub. A more formal dining room currently being used as a snug is to the rear of the property with views over the garden. A downstairs shower room and utility complete this floor.
On the first floor the principal bedroom is a wonderful room with fitted storage, a newly renovated en suite bathroom and a super covered balcony with panoramic views across the garden and countryside beyond.
