Welcome…
Welcome to Arden, an impressive family home with five bedrooms and fabulous gardens. Set on the edge of this hugely popular village with open views across fields and countryside, this fantastic home is ideal for village family life, hosting dinner parties and BBQs.

Come on in…
As you make your way down the leafy road from the village, the privacy here is evident when you pull onto the driveway, where there is plenty of space to park in front of the triple garage.

The front door opens and gives the most amazing view through the hall and dining room of the sun-filled conservatory and gardens beyond, as light fills the room. What a way to be welcomed into this magnificent home.

To the right is the sitting room, a large reception room with a glass-fronted wood burning fireplace. The bay window overlooks the driveway at the front, and French doors lead out to the gardens at the rear. This room is perfect for snuggling up in front of the fire on a chilly evening.

"The wood fire really kicks out the heat; it's lovely and cosy in the winter."

On the other side of the hallway is a lovely little snug - perfect for a playroom, a teenager’s games room, or simply if people want to watch different channels on the TV.

The study offers a quiet corner, a place to close off from the rest of the household and work in peace before re-emerging for a coffee when it's time for a break.

The heart of the home…
A range of oak kitchen units offers plenty of storage and workspace to prepare meals. There is an eye-level double oven, hob, integrated dishwasher, and fridge freezer. With space for a breakfast table, this room is excellent for the family to gather and enjoy an informal meal.

The utility room offers additional storage space, with a range of white units and space for a washing machine and other appliances.

Bring the outside in…
The conservatory is a beautiful space and allows a seamless connection with the gardens. Underfloor heating ensures that this room can be comfortably used all year round and is a lovely spot to watch the birds and the garden.

"We spend so much time in the conservatory with family and friends; it feels like you are sitting in the garden even if it's too cold to be outside."

Bedroom bliss…
Climbing the staircase to the first floor, you are greeted by an open landing area with lots of natural light cascading down the stairs. The master bedroom sits on one side of the property, offering a degree of separation and privacy from the rest of the household. There is a range of built-in bedroom furniture and dual aspect lovely windows with far-reaching views. Enjoy a morning cup of tea with the curtains open as you take in the view. The en-suite shower room is clean and modern with a large walk-in shower, wash hand basin and WC.

There are three other double sized bedrooms, each with windows to the rear with the same outstanding views. Finally, the fifth bedroom has a small en-suite shower room, making it the perfect guest room.

Above the bedrooms are two separate large loft spaces, fully boarded and insulated to allow excellent storage space.

The house bathroom has a bath with a shower above, ready to enjoy a long soak. There is also a wash hand basin and WC.

Glorious gardens…
Long, perfectly manicured lawns with vivid stripes stretch out before you, bordered by established trees and shrubs to create mature private gardens. A rose arbour to the side has climbing roses, and a trellis filled with clematis blooms ensures colour and beautiful floral displays. The patio area is the perfect spot for outdoor furniture, great for al fresco lunches in the sun or extended family BBQs that last long after sunset.

For the keen gardener, a small stone wall separates the gardens between the lawn area and the productive growing section, with veg plots and raised beds for fruit and veg growing. There are apple and pear trees and a fruit bed with juicy berries, so you will be blessed with endless pies and crumbles come autumn. There is also a workshop just outside the utility room that serves as a fabulous potting shed or hobby room.

The triple garage is ideal for anyone with expensive hobbies or classic cars with three electric doors. The building is insulated, has power and light, and has a boarded and insulated loft space complete with skylights for natural light. There could be an option to develop this loft space further to make a usable studio or office space, subject to planning permissions.
