Situated at the rear of the home, a stunning Kitchen/Diner that instantly impresses upon entry, forms the heart and soul of the home, and seamlessly integrates with the outside terrace through clever bi-folding doors.
The functional and thoughtful layout of the units, work surfaces and a central island creates a wonderful space for quick mid-week breakfasts, a casual spot for coffee and a catch up or even pre-dinner drinks and cocktails with family and friends, and comes fully fitted with integrated appliances which even includes a wine cooler.
Study - 10'9" x 8'4" (3.28m x 2.53m)

A lovely second reception room that enjoys views over and access to the garden, whilst naturally bright through a large picture window and fully glazed, sliding patio doors.
To the first floor….
Bedroom 1 - 8'6" x 15'2" (2.59m x 4.62m)
A proper double bedroom that enjoys views to the front and would comfortably accommodate a bank of wardrobes. Pull back the glazed sliding door in the corner of the room to reveal a purpose built wetroom too complete with W.C

Bedroom 4 - 7'6" x 11'4" (2.29m x 3.45m)
A generous single bedroom sharing the same aspect as bedroom 3. A perfect child's bedroom or nursery.

A 'Jack and Jill' family bathroom that services both the bedrooms and the annexe, has been beautifully designed and fitted with a contemporary, four piece bathroom suite to include a separate enclosure.
Annexe/Bedroom 5 - 26'5" x 15'9" (8.05m x 4.79m)
Climb the stairs from an inner hall located just off the family room and you will arrive at a fabulous self contained annexe which has been laid out open plan but can be sectioned off cleverly with careful furniture placement. Natural light floods in from five large velux skylight windows giving the room a light and airy feel, and features a fully fitted, black and white themed Kitchen. The perfect place for extended family to stay, or perhaps start your own B&B venture?
Double Garage - 17'2" x 16'10" (5.22m x 5.14m)
A large up and and over door rises to reveal a useful double garage, providing valuable storage for the home and comes fully connected with power and light. The garage can also be accessed internally via a door from the inner hall off the family room.
Outside the home…
The property sits centrally within the plot and enjoys spectacular wrap around gardens. A wide paved driveway leads to the front door of the garage and provides off road vehicle parking.
From here and enclosed by beautifully pruned hedging, an immaculate lawn then sweeps around the front of the home (anti-clockwise) leading to a hand gate at the rear of the home.
Through the gate you enter into a decked sun terrace, located just off the back of the kitchen. The ideal place for lazy, sunny afternoons with friends and family. Continuing on, you arrive at the rear garden, which features another beautifully kept lawn, with established, colourful flower borders and high hedging. A further decked seating area provides a place for al fresco dining, or curl up with a good book under the timber pergola, for some quiet time.
Follow the path down the side of the property to another side gate which brings you back to the front of the home.
The finer details.
