Description

An Edwardian extended six bedroom detached farm house with an annexe and studio/home office on an elevated plot of approximately 2.2 acres on the edge of Offley. The original house was built in 1906 and is set well back from the road with a sweeping gated driveway which leads to the house and to the detached double garage at the side. There are front and rear gardens with a paddock area beyond. The house was extended in 1998 to create the main sitting room and the principal bedroom suite above.
The accommodation of the house and studio is approximately 3,000 sq. ft. The addition of the separate annexe, which is on the site of an original building and has a wine cellar, and the double garage brings the total accommodation to over 4,150 sq. ft. The entrance hall has stairs to the first floor with a cupboard below, and access to a cloakroom and a utility room with units with a built-in butler sink and a combination boiler served by LPG. The ground floor also has three reception rooms and a kitchen/breakfast room. On the first floor there are four bedrooms, two en suites and a bathroom. There are two further bedrooms on the second floor.

Reception Rooms and Kitchen

The bespoke kitchen has Amtico flooring, and oak, hand painted free standing units with granite work surfaces. There is a built-in fridge and freezer, electric ovens, and an electric Aga with an LPG hob. There is also a walk-in pantry. The triple aspect sitting room has an inglenook fireplace with a dual fuel stove, and French doors to a patio in the garden. The family room has views to the front, and an ornamental fireplace. The formal dining room has an open fireplace with a brick surround.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms

Bedroom six, which is used as a reading room and occasional bedroom, gives access to the principal bedroom suite which has a dressing room with built-in wardrobes and a recently refitted en suite shower room. Bedroom two also has a range of built-in wardrobes, an art deco fireplace, and an en suite shower room. Bedroom three has views to the front. On the second floor there are two further bedrooms with far reaching views to the rear. Bedroom five is divided into two areas with the potential for an en suite.

Outside

A wall encloses the front of the property with a gated entrance and a 170 ft. drive which branches as it reaches the house with one branch leading to a wide parking area and the other to a double garage with power and light. The studio/home office has doors to the front and side and has power and light. The annexe has its own boiler, a kitchen, a shower room, and a bedroom/reception space. Separately accessed stairs lead down to a wine cellar below. The house and annexe are separated by a paved patio area and there are mature and well stocked gardens with gates to the paddock behind.
