Description

This charming 1930s detached house offers a fabulous opportunity for a buyer to modernise, extend or possibly redevelop (subject to planning permission) to create a lovely family home, in about half an acre of mature gardens, set in a peaceful position, on the edge of the pretty village of Whiteleaf, backing on to the picturesque golf course with distant views to the wooded hills beyond.

The reception hall is generous with under stairs storage and cloakroom adjacent. There are four reception rooms with a large sitting room with an open fireplace and display cabinets to both sides leading into the family room with patio doors to the rear terrace and a further feature fireplace. Both rooms give views on to the front and rear gardens. The dining room also gives garden views and has an attractive brick corner fireplace. The kitchen/breakfast room has a range of units and storage cupboards with appliance spaces and a sink unit. The breakfast area has a roof light and plenty of space for a breakfast table. There is also a useful walk-in pantry off of the kitchen area. A door leads to the utility room and on to a further boot/boiler room with door to the outside. Behind this is a peacefully situated study/playroom with views on to the garden.

On the first floor, the landing which has two storage cupboards affords views over the front garden and all of the bedrooms bar one, have views over the mature rear garden, golf course and wooded hills beyond. The principal bedroom has built-in wardrobes and an en suite bathroom. The three remaining bedrooms have built-in wardrobes with two of them having hand basins. A family bathroom and a night cloakroom complete the accommodation.

Whitehill is approached off the village lane through a gated entrance on to a large driveway and turning area, there are areas of lawn with mature trees to both sides. There is a timber garden store and a single integral garage with storage area. There is wide access to the rear garden from both sides of the house. To the rear is a terrace area with steps up to the large expanse of lawn. The garden is mature and predominantly south east facing with a variety of trees and shrubs, garden store/summer house and a composting area.
