House For Sale £1,100,000
Greenacre has been thoughtfully refurbished in recent years and now offers modern yet characterful accommodation with wonderful period features, ideally suited to modern family life. Originally a 1920s bungalow, the home was reimagined by renowned architect Michael Drury who renovated Salisbury Cathedral Spire, creating the truly glorious, ultimately versatile home you find today.
The accommodation in total, including the annexe, amounts to over 3,000 sq.ft. And is arranged over two floors. The arrangement of the rooms is of particular note with all principal reception rooms and bedrooms boasting dual aspects and commanding views across the stunning grounds and open countryside beyond. The welcoming entrance hall gives way to all principal reception rooms. There is a comprehensively appointed kitchen/breakfast room, elegant dual aspect dining room with French doors opening to the garden. There is a separate formal sitting room with French doors opening to the gardens and a focal point feature fireplace. The ground floor is completed by a snug or study and a cloakroom.
There are four generous double bedrooms found on the first floor, the master of which has an en-suite bathroom and dressing room and gorgeous views across the paddocks and farmland beyond. The remaining bedrooms have built-in storage and are serviced by a beautifully appointed family bathroom. The bedrooms have been recently redecorated and are immaculately presented throughout.
The self-contained two bedroom annexe is adjacent to the home offering an excellent level of privacy and independence. The annexe is again well presented throughout and boasts an open plan ground floor with a well-appointed kitchen area and substantial dining and seating area beyond. The bathroom is also on the ground floor. On the first floor there are two bedrooms, the main bedroom offering lovely views across the gardens. The annexe is perfect for guests, family members or a superb rental opportunity.
Outside
The home is discreetly nestled within its generous acre plot. The sweeping driveway leads to the home and provides ample parking for multiple vehicles.
The parkland gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and interspersed with specimen trees. There are areas that have been sown with wild meadow seeds, a perfect environment for bees and butterflies. There is an established orchard with multiple apple trees.
A raised paved terrace wraps around the rear of the home providing an idyllic al fresco entertaining and dining area with gorgeous views across the grounds and fields beyond.
The home has further outbuildings including a timber gallery/studio, a fully set up timber home office and a substantial garden store.
Situation
The property is pleasantly situated on the outskirts of the popular Bourne Valley village of Idmiston which is surrounded by attractive countryside and caters for all manner of country pursuits.
