An impressive family home in a sought after village providing exceptional and versatile accommodation, along with ancillary accommodation and extensively landscaped gardens and grounds.

Description

An impressive detached village family home built in 1995 to exacting standards and constructed with attractive traditional elevations and a classic, imposing design. The property has been maintained to an extremely high level of presentation throughout and provides bright and spacious accommodation arranged over four well planned floors. The property is situated on a mature landscaped plot approaching one acre bordered by open countryside and enjoys the benefit of extensive leisure facilities and ancillary accommodation.

Day to day formal living accommodation is arranged over the ground floor with access from a wonderful open plan reception hall with feature staircase and galleried landing above. Formal reception rooms include a formal study and generous living room, centrally positioned as a lovely focal point for the house and giving access to the double aspect kitchen and beautiful conservatory addition.

The kitchen itself is of exceptional quality boasting an extensive range of hand built Oak units in a country house design, with matching island, feature Aga along conventional ovens and space for freestanding appliances. Thoughtfully designed, the kitchen is open plan to a further L-shaped family room and conservatory spanning the rear of the property and overlooking the rear garden.

The lower ground floor provides a good size utility/plant room and a most impressive fully installed cinema room.
The bedroom accommodation is arranged over the top two floors, with three first floor double bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms, including a double aspect principal bedroom with extensive storage and luxury en-suite bath and shower room. A continuation of the main staircase leads to two additional double aspect bedrooms served by a further well-appointed shower room.

A real feature of the property is the wonderful plot approaching one acre. Set behind imposing wrought iron gates framed by matching brick pillars, the expansive block paved driveway provides ample parking whilst giving access to a detached twin bay double garage.

Positioned with the rear gardens is a most impressive barn style annexe/pool house. This superb ancillary living space is simply a joy, having been beautifully constructed with a solid Oak vaulted frame housing an open plan reception with bar area, shower and cloakroom and stairs leading to a mezzanine bedroom area. Bi-folding doors span the front of the annexe, opening out on to the pool and providing a simply wonderful indoor/outdoor entertaining area.

The rear gardens have been extensively landscaped to provide the most wonderful outdoor entertaining areas. To the rear of house is a lovely secluded patio area with matching paths sweeping past and neatly enveloping the outdoor swimming pool and creating further seating areas from which to enjoy the gardens.

The remainder of the gardens comprise formal lawns interspersed by mature specimen trees and featuring a pleasant sunken seating area with fire pit, along with a wild meadow garden with fruit trees to the rear of the plot.
