Description

Entering the house, you are firstly greeted by an enclosed porch which leads into a very spacious entrance hall with slate tiled floor and an attractive timber fireplace with a wood burning stove. Two understairs cupboards provide useful storage.

The study, immediately to your right, has twin built-in bookshelves with cupboards beneath.

To the other end of the hall is a beautiful drawing room with dual aspect facing front over the lawned gardens and over the rear terrace. An impressive ‘Varde’ log burner sits on a stone hearth.

A door leads through to the dining room with rear facing aspect and French doors to the gardens and terrace. There are fitted bookshelves with storage beneath. The room then leads you back through to the hall, giving an excellent circulation for entertaining.

The light and airy kitchen is of an impressive scale and combined with the garden room gives a great space for families and also to entertain. A good range of painted white units, a large central island and gas fired Aga complete the country style kitchen. Off the kitchen, a door leads through to a very good-sized laundry room providing plenty of further storage with one cupboard housing the gas fired boiler. There is a back door out to the side garden. In addition, there is a very useful downstairs cloakroom.

Also off the kitchen a door leads through to a further reception room, ideal as a TV room or snug enjoying double aspect and a further wood burning stove for cosy evenings.

Upstairs you find a most spacious and fine master bedroom which has a huge amount of built-in storage and its own en suite bathroom. Given the spacious nature of the room there is effectively room for a dressing area.

There are four further bedrooms which all face the front of the house and the majority have built-in storage. At the far end is a box room that would make an ideal study. Bedroom 3 has its own en suite and there is also a family bathroom.

Externally

The front area of the house is very attractive with its in and out driveway with ample off-street parking space for several cars. There is a double garage with power and light.

The lawned gardens to the front are flanked by many mature shrubs and trees and on the front lawn are two recent fruit trees, both of which blossom in spring. To the right-hand side of the house is a magical area of the grounds which historically was part of a quarry and provides nature and wildlife in abundance.

Off the garden room there is a really lovely paved terrace which gives plenty of room for summer dining. Steps lead from the terrace to a pond and waterfall beside. A further area of garden consists mainly of a large lawn and adjoins open countryside. Our client has created a seating area here, ideal for enjoying the views.
