INTRODUCTION

Originally built in 1872, this gorgeous sandstone house has been carefully improved, restored and added to during the time that the current vendors have made Woodside their beautiful and well loved family home. Both the interior and exterior spaces are incredibly flexible and will suit many buyers.

With the sun rising from behind the holly and ash woodland to the rear of the property and setting over the rolling fields to the west, the open plan kitchen area is a light-filled, calm space. The large double glazed windows and sliding doors of the adjacent garden room, opening out onto a slate patio, succeed in making this a real indoors/outdoors area. This versatile and comfortable space transitions effortlessly from being the functional heart of the home to an exceptional focus for entertaining friends and family.

At the opposite end of the house is a well proportioned and cosy sitting room, complete with wood burner. Also, at this end of the house is a bedroom/study. Completing this floor is an adjacent shower room and toilet and a utility/laundry room.

On the first floor there are two generously proportioned double bedrooms with dual-aspect sash windows, facing east and west, each offering breathtaking woodland and countryside views. Between these bedrooms is a luxurious bathroom with a stand alone, enameled bath, sink and steam shower.

Behind the main house is a renovated stone-built annexe, providing convenient and independent accommodation for guests, a teenager seeking their own space or a quiet and professional office space. The annex is complete with its own underfloor heating, a shower room, toilet and ample storage, providing versatility and privacy.

The outside perfectly complements the inside – with beautiful woodland to the rear and the lovely westerly views of countryside to the front. The hedge-lined, flower meadow paddock, complete with chicken coop, to the front has become an extension of the house with an entertaining area tucked to the side of the apple orchard. Additionally, the Barn on the paddock is a versatile hub, given over to entertaining or fitness and comes with ample internal and external storage for bikes, tools and mowers.

This home has been finished to a high specification throughout and with an exceptional eye for detail.
