Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the outstanding open-plan kitchen, dining and family room.

Complementing the bedroom is a beautifully appointed dressing room fitted with an extensive range of bespoke Duval wardrobes, drawers and dressing table, together with a luxurious en-suite shower room featuring a large walk-in shower, wash basin, WC and bidet.

The family bathroom is extensively tiled and fitted with a quality white suite comprising a Jacuzzi bath, pedestal wash basin and WC.

Completing the accommodation is the substantial integral garage, incorporating twin electric doors and a dedicated boiler room.

Externally, the grounds are every bit as impressive as the accommodation. Beautifully landscaped and meticulously maintained, the gardens extend to over one acre including an adjoining parcel of land rented from the Dartmouth Estate which has an additional hardstanding to accomodate a motorhome or similar. Expansive paved terraces provide superb spaces for outdoor entertaining and al fresco dining, including an outdoor BBQ area, whilst manicured lawns, mature borders and established planting create a wonderfully tranquil environment.

The result is a truly remarkable outdoor space that perfectly complements the property's stunning rural setting.
