Wonderfully positioned house and annexe in 1.3 acres.
Description
The house is approached over a 100m drive and stands centrally within its own gardens and grounds, which extend to about 1.3 acres. A welcoming hallway sits at the centre of the house approached through a canopied storm porch finished with an oak-style floor and including a fine staircase. There are two reception rooms at the front of the house overlooking the gardens and driveway with marble surround open fireplaces and high ceilings. There is a third reception room at the rear of the property used as a home office, which has a secondary entrance from the back drive, making an ideal room for a consultant. At the rear of the house is a delightful kitchen/breakfast room with painted bespoke Shaker-style units topped with granite. The room includes a four-oven aga, butler sink unit and integrated appliances. Adjoining is a fitted utility room and ground floor cloakroom. A fine staircase leads to a spacious landing. All the bedrooms enjoy high ceilings, many with dual-aspect windows providing light-filled accommodation. The principal bedroom enjoys lovely views to the front and rear over the gardens and swimming pool and has a large en suite with walk-in shower, freestanding bath with an Italian marble backdrop and underfloor heating. A spacious family bathroom contains a Georgian-style wash stand, bath, walk-in shower and underfloor heating.

A 100m gravel drive passes through the front grounds to a substantial parking area at the side of the house, which in turn leads to a private courtyard behind the house and access to a double and single garage. The single garage immediately adjoins the annexe and offers the potential for further expansion, subject to planning consent. The annexe is beautifully positioned within the gardens overlooking the swimming pool and includes a kitchen/living room, a bedrooom and a shower room. Also within the building is the boiler and filtration plant for the pool. The swimming pool occupies a sheltered location with a southerly aspect surrounded by a wide paved terrace, ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining.
