DESCRIPTION A deceptively spacious detached village residence, thoughtfully designed around an impressive galleried landing and offering well balanced family accommodation, attractive gardens, garage and parking, situated within the sought after rural community of Ashwater and is available with no onward chain.
Constructed in 2004 of timber frame with brick and block, and a natural slate roof, this individual detached home offers surprisingly spacious and well planned accommodation, centred around a striking galleried landing that creates a wonderful sense of space and light throughout the property. The thoughtful internal design allows the bedrooms to flow naturally around the central landing, creating a home ideally suited to family living. The property further benefits from a lovely conservatory and air source central heating, with underfloor heating in the front entrance, kitchen and utility beneath attractive slate flooring, whilst the first floor is served by radiators. All windows are fitted with uPVC double glazing.
ACCOMMODATION A welcoming entrance lobby provides access to the principal accommodation and is served by a cloakroom/WC. The generously proportioned utility room offers an excellent range of additional storage units and provides internal access to the garage.
The kitchen/breakfast room is a particularly impressive space, of an interesting curved bay shape, fitted with a comprehensive range of units and offering ample room for a central family dining table. A highly practical walk-in larder adds valuable storage.
At the heart of the home, the formal dining room enjoys a central position beneath the impressive galleried landing, creating an attractive focal point to the property. The sitting room is a comfortable and inviting space, featuring a multi-fuel stove set in a marble fireplace, enjoying direct access to the rear garden and the conservatory is an ideal place to relax and unwind.
An oak staircase rises from the dining room to the first floor galleried landing, where numerous skylights flood the space with natural light, with ample space here to use as a study area, if needed. The principal bedroom is particularly well appointed, being triple aspect and benefiting from a walk in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms, together with a stylish and well presented family bathroom. Bedroom two has a delightful Juliet balcony overlooking the garden and fields beyond, while bedroom three benefits from built-in storage.
OUTSIDE To the front of the property, a private driveway provides parking for approximately three vehicles and leads to the integral single garage, fitted with an automatic up-and-over door.
The rear gardens have been designed with ease of maintenance in mind and enjoy a pleasant sunny aspect throughout the day. Laid principally to gravel, patio and lawn, the gardens are interspersed with a variety of mature shrubs and colourful perennials, creating an attractive setting for outdoor relaxation and entertaining.
