The Property:

Dating back to 1899, this attractive and characterful home is situated in a private yet convenient location close to Lemsford Village. With generous gardens adjoining open fields and a beautiful interior filled with character and charm, it boasts numerous outbuildings including a self-contained annex.

Description:

Having been sympathetically updated and improved by the current owners, this detached residence retains many period features, character and charm.
The well-balanced accommodation is flooded in natural light throughout and is arranged over two floors. It includes a large and welcoming entrance hall with useful study space. This opens through to two spacious reception rooms; to the rear, a formal dining room with double doors onto the garden and open fire and, to the front, a sitting room with a bay window and feature fireplace with inset multi-fuel stove.
The kitchen has been refitted with a quality range of storage units with solid oak worktops and Aga providing year round warmth and cooking facilities. There are windows to the front, side and rear along with doors to the side and a beautiful featured rounded door leading onto the garden.
The kitchen opens through to a breakfast room, utility area then through to a boot room and cloakroom with WC.
Upstairs, all three of the bedrooms are large doubles in size and enjoy fabulous elevated views across open countryside. They are served by a luxurious bathroom. Suspected to have been created from a bedroom and bathroom, it is fitted with a four piece suite including a roll-top bath, double shower enclosure and twin hand wash basins.
Outside, the gardens surround the property and are mainly laid to lawn with a large gravelled driveway, pond and various patios perfect for entertaining. Accessed from the driveway, there is an outside store, garage and gate through to the rear providing independent access to the annex. Being detached from the house, the annex is open-plan with a kitchenette and shower room. This would be perfect to use for a home working space, business or additional accommodation if required.
