Description
The Little Elms is an exceptional detached country home, occupying an enviable position with far-reaching, panoramic views across open countryside. Constructed with handsome stone and timber-clad elevations beneath a traditional clay tiled roof, the house has been thoughtfully enhanced to provide elegant, contemporary accommodation of notable quality and versatility.
A welcoming reception hall immediately conveys a sense of light and scale, flowing seamlessly into the impressive open-plan kitchen/dining space. Beautifully appointed, the kitchen is fitted with quartz work surfaces, a comprehensive range of bespoke-style wall and base cabinetry, and integrated appliances, creating a refined yet highly functional environment suited to both family life and entertaining.
To the front, a thoughtfully designed extension forms an intimate snug, perfectly oriented to capture uninterrupted rural views. The principal reception room is equally inviting, centred around a wood-burning stove which adds warmth and character, with newly installed patio doors opening directly onto the garden and drawing in natural light throughout the day. A well-appointed utility room provides additional practicality and discreet storage, completing the ground floor accommodation.
The first floor offers four well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal suite enjoys expansive windows framing spectacular countryside views and benefits from a stylish en suite shower room. A second bedroom also features its own en suite facilities, while bedrooms three and four overlook the rear garden and surrounding landscape, served by a beautifully finished family bathroom.
Of particular note is the former double car port, now skilfully converted into an elegant salon space, ideal for a home business, studio or office. Above, a self-contained one-bedroom annexe provides superb ancillary accommodation, currently operating as a successful Airbnb and generating supplementary income. With its independent access and amenities, it offers excellent flexibility for guests, multi-generational living or an older dependant seeking autonomy.
The property is further enhanced by mains gas-fired, multi-zone underfloor heating and hot water throughout, mains electricity, and a private sewage treatment plant.
The Little Elms represents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished village-edge home combining refined modern living, income potential and exceptional countryside views.
