DESCRIPTION The property has been extensively renovated and beautifully modernised by the current owners, creating a spacious, light-filled family home with thoughtfully designed accommodation throughout.
The ground floor is approached through a generous boot room, providing excellent practical storage and leading through to the spacious entrance hall. At the heart of the home is the impressive bespoke kitchen, which has been thoughtfully designed to maximise both storage and flow. It is fitted with an extensive range of oak base and wall units with quartz worktops, together with a comprehensive range of integrated appliances including two ovens, fridge/freezer, wine fridge, induction hob and a Quooker tap providing boiling and sparkling water. There is ample space for both dining and living, while French doors open onto the outside, ideally positioned to enjoy the evening sun and al fresco dining.
The principal living accommodation is arranged in a spacious open-plan layout, providing flexible areas for a home office, dining and sitting room. A striking double-sided wood-burning stove creates a natural division between the dining and sitting areas, while double doors lead through to the conservatory. Overlooking the south-facing garden and enjoying far-reaching countryside views, the conservatory has sliding doors opening directly onto the patio and garden beyond. A cloakroom completes the ground-floor accommodation.
A feature staircase with automatic lighting rises to the first floor. The principal bedroom benefits from a large built-in wardrobe and an en suite shower room. Bedroom two is a particularly attractive double-aspect room, making the most of the surrounding views and offering ample built-in storage. The third bedroom is a good-sized double, while the fourth is another double room, currently used as a dressing room, with a large fitted wardrobe. The family bathroom is generously appointed with twin wash basins, WC, freestanding bath and separate shower.
OUTSIDE The property is approached via a gated private driveway, providing ample parking for multiple vehicles together with a double garage. The gardens extend to over an acre and wrap around the property, with a variety of seating areas thoughtfully positioned to make the most of the sun throughout the day.
