Charming family living in a delightful village position.

Description

Three Trees is an impressive, spacious, detached family home tucked away in the delightful village of Newnham.

This home was designed and built by the current owners in 1986, where they created stunning contemporary living yet maintained elegance and charm, and finishes to the highest of standards. Having been tastefully maintained over the years, attention to detail can be seen through out the property .

The property welcomes you into an impressive and hospitable reception hall. Adjoining is the sitting room with stylish wood burning stove and double aspect with wonderful views to the front and rear gardens, a wonderful space for entertaining. The kitchen/ dining/ family room is open plan and flooded with natural light from a variety of French doors. There is a modern Paul Rowles bespoke kitchen integrated with extensive base and eye level units, gas Aga, Neff oven and microwave, fridge and even a wine fridge. To the side there is also a utility/ boot room with freezer, inbuilt storage cupboards, separate Belfast sink and room for washing machine and tumbledryer, a downstairs shower room and access to the patio area outside.

Upstairs is generously proportioned with a lovely galleried landing. With six bedrooms over two floors, there is versatile accommodation throughout. The principal bedroom is impressive, light and airy with a Juliette balcony overlooking the rear garden. It is also complemented by a sizeable en suite and separate dressing room.

There are five further double bedrooms with ample wardrobe space and storage, and two modern family bathrooms.

Three Trees sits centrally with ample gardens to the front and rear. The rear is predominately laid to lawn with a variety of mature trees, various herbaceous borders, flower and vegetable beds, water feature and a field pond fed by a natural spring and well stocked with fish, and wonderful paved entertaining areas with garden lighting in place, perfect for summer entertaining and alfresco dining. There is also paddock land, with post and railing and hedge boundaries, outbuilding, two stables, tackroom and feed store, paddock land and wooded area to be enjoyed. In all about 3 acres.

Outside, privately hidden to the rear of the property is a charming, self contained annexe, accessed via the main gravelled drive. Cladded with Siberian larch this secondary accommodation offers two bedrooms, one with potential use as a home office, a Paul Rowles bespoke kitchen, sitting room with electric fireplace, a shower room and a separate WC. French doors lead to a lovely patio area positioned to the front, with a lawned garden, borders and surrounding trees, perfect for enjoying evening summer sun.

The house is approached through stone pillars and black iron gates that open onto a gravelled driveway, leading to the front of the house and fruit orchard to the side. Here there is ample off road parking for several cars. Access to the separate garage, store room, and a sufficient first floor home office.

To summarise, sitting proudly in the village and backing onto pasture and wonderful rolling countryside views, there is certainly considerable space and privacy to be enjoyed. With Three Trees offering still plenty of scope, there is much to be desired about this wonderful family home with its flexibility and versatile accommodation.
