Tree Tops: The Walkthrough:

The Grand Entrance:

Forget the cramped porch or the narrow hallway. At Tree Tops, your first impression is the one that counts. You step directly into the heart of the home: the Kitchen / Living Area. The scale is immediately breath-taking—this isn't just a room; it's a lifestyle statement. With its high-end farmhouse cabinetry and central island, it acts as the ultimate greeting. It's the kind of space where guests naturally gravitate, glass of wine in hand, while you finish off dinner on the range.

The Social Spine:

Because you've walked straight into the main living hub, the layout feels incredibly social. The dining area is bathed in light from the first set of French doors, which open directly onto one of the property's beautiful stone terraces. Turning into the Hallway, the clever internal windows ensure you never feel disconnected from the rest of the house. It keeps the entire floorplan feeling bright, airy, and open-plan, even as you transition toward the private quarters.

The Formal Retreat:

Moving through the hall, you reach the Living Room. After the bright, buzzing energy of the kitchen, this room feels like a warm embrace. It's your evening sanctuary, centered around a crackling log-burning stove. Adjacent is the Reception Room, the true "Chameleon" of the house. Currently a grand home office, it features the second set of French doors leading to a separate stone terrace, meaning this space could easily be a formal dining room, a playroom, or even a fifth double bedroom for guests.

The Sleeping Quarters & Bathrooms:

The bedrooms are split to two separate sides of the property. The layout is ideal for guests and families, all supported by two high-specification bathrooms:

The Principal Bedrooms: Two king-sized doubles (Bedrooms 1 & 2) feature wall-to-wall fitted wardrobes

Bedroom 3: Another generous double bedroom situated quietly in the heart of the sleeping quarters- also complete with built in wardrobes

Bedroom 4: A versatile space, perfect as a nursery, a hobby room, or a large walk-in dressing room.

The Spa Experience: The main Family Bathroom is the ultimate retreat and serves bedrooms one and two. Boasting both a stunning freestanding claw-foot tub for long Sunday soaks AND a separate walk-in rain shower. A second bathroom, serving bedrooms three and four also offers a modern shower, ensuring the morning rush is a thing of the past.

The Great Outdoors, Parking & Security:

The outside space at Tree Tops is designed for total privacy and impressive scale. The property is accessed via secure electric gates, opening onto a huge driveway that has been recently tarmacked, providing a pristine area for multiple vehicles. This leads to a large detached double garage, perfect for car enthusiasts.

The large gardens are a showstopper, featuring two distinct stone terraces—each with its own French door access—making alfresco entertaining effortless. The plot features manicured lawns and tiered landscaping that makes the most of the property's elevated position. Bordered by mature trees and rolling fields, the solar-powered peace and quiet of the Went Valley is all yours to enjoy.
