Detached house with land - Temple Cloud

A fantastic four bedroom detached property with superb south facing views over its own five acres of paddocks, and situated on a quiet lane on the edge of Temple Cloud.

About the Property.

Sunnyside is a four bedroom detached property that has recently undergone a programme of remodelling and renovation to create a wonderful family home with all the principal rooms enjoying superb far-reaching views across its own paddocks. A large terrace wraps around to the side providing an outdoor entertaining area with steps down to the expansive lawn. Mown paths lead to the stables and four paddocks ideally suited for a smallholding. Further pedestrian access can be found along Eastcourt road. A pre-planning application has been made to create a four bedroom home on the site of the stables.

About the Inside.

The front door opens into a generous entrance hall which is used as a quiet study. A cloakroom sits to one side. From here, the spacious double height galleried hallway opens into the principal reception rooms. On the left is a small sitting room with French doors opening onto the side terrace. The light filled main living/dining room enjoys two sets of sliding doors opening out onto the rear terrace with far reaching countryside views. Parquet floors and wall panelling add warmth and character together with the open fire. The dual aspect kitchen has a modern yet classic feel with slate floors complementing the pale grey units with built in appliances including a double oven and gas hob. A warm timber breakfast bar benefits from the light from the patio doors. From the kitchen, a door leads to both the music room with access to the rear, and the large utility/boot room with deep blue units and plenty of space for laundry, coats and boots. A glazed door leads to the driveway at the front of the property.

Upstairs there are four good sized bedrooms, all with stunning views across open countryside and a range of built-in warbrobes. Bedroom 2 benefits from an en-suite shower room, creating an ideal guest room. The recently refitted modern family bathroom has a freestanding clawfoot bath and separate shower cubicle and thoughtfully designed storage.

About the Outside.

The front of the property is gravelled and provides parking for several vehicles, with an electric car charging point. Steps to the side lead up to the vegetable garden and greenhouse. To the rear, a paved terrace with a low stone wall wraps around to the side where there is a large decked dining area with a timber roof. Behind this is a workshop/outbuilding. In front of the terrace is an area of garden with a low fence dividing it from the paddocks. A wisteria clad archway to the side links the terrace to the expansive main lawn, landscaped with a range of herbaceous shrubs and trees and beautiful dry-stone walls. Uninterrupted views across the paddocks to the hills beyond can be enjoyed from here, with steps leading up to the greenhouse and the path to the paddocks.

Three paths lead to the stables and paddocks, one from Eastcourt Road. The block of five stables on a fully fenced concrete apron have power and light and water. Four fenced paddocks sit below, one with a newly planted hedgerow. A field shelter sits between two of the paddocks. Access is also granted via the A37 and into a field bordering the river.

A pre-planning application has been made to build a four bedroom detached property on the site of the stables.
