Description
Derwent House is believed to date to around the mid 1930’s, with subsequent extensive re-design and enlargement over more recent years, now providing a highly versatile accommodation of around 3442 sq. ft. which includes a secondary living space that has the potential to become a ground floor annexe.
The property occupies a generous plot of about 0.9 acres, with secure mixed hedge/tree line boundaries to all sides, which then provide a lovely feeling of privacy. From the main road, the private driveway sweeps around central lawn to provide an area of ample parking. From a welcoming entrance, the ground floor accommodation flows from a spacious entrance hall, with doors leading to the main reception rooms and the annexed living space. The dining/family room is essentially the hub of the house, with an adjoining kitchen and separate utility beyond; whilst a set of doors lead into a spacious triple aspect sitting room with a focal point of the wood burning stove. The annexed living space incorporates a bedroom (currently used as an office), a cloakroom, separate shower room, a kitchen with adjoining living area. Furthermore, there is a covered link to a double garage which has been converted into a games room. The main bedrooms are arranged over a first and second floor. From a first floor galleried landing, there is a principal bedroom suite incorporating a dressing room and en suite, with three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Up on the second floor, there is a large double bedroom and bathroom suite.
Outside, to the rear of the house there is an extensive walled terrace surrounding a recently refurbished heated swimming pool (measuring 35ft x20ft). To the side of the terrace, there is a lovely pergola, six person sauna and the pump house (filtration unit/pool heater). The gardens that surrounds the house is mainly laid to lawn, with attractive mature trees and views across the adjacent farmland.
