DESCRIPTION
GROUND FLOOR
Walnut House, originally three cottages, is a stunning stone home boasting a Norfolk Reed thatch.
Having undergone extensive renovations in recent years, one of the properties many highlights is the bespoke ‘Intone’ kitchen complete with various Walnut highlights. The kitchen flows into the breakfast garden room which is light throughout the majority of the day.
The property has a useful utility room, boot-room and downstairs cloakroom.
The large dining room is brimming with charm in the form of beams and an impressive feature fireplace.
Off the dining room, the bright office, with tailored built in desk and storage, looks out over the beautiful garden.
Past the parquet floored entrance hall is the sitting room with dual aspect bay windows and another striking fireplace. The décor throughout has been finished to an incredibly high standard.
FIRST FLOOR
There are two lovely sized double bedrooms with characterful features in abundance, one has an ensuite shower room and the other has access to a luxurious bathroom with roll-top bath.
Throughout the length of the corridor are cleverly disguised storage spaces behind beautiful original wooden doors.
The principal suite with dual aspect windows and beautiful feature fireplace also benefits from an ensuite and built-in wardrobes as well as access to a generous dressing room with bespoke built-in furniture.
The dressing room could easily be returned to what was formally a single, fourth bedroom.
OUTSIDE
The garden has been beautifully landscaped by renowned designer Bunny Guinness, and has borders and raised beds bursting with mature plants and trees which are impeccably maintained.
The original well on site has been thoughtfully created into a feature.
With a large patio perfect for entertaining, the garden is a sun trap throughout the day.
It also has an elevated children’s play area and a second tier with heated swimming pool and decking.
The garden has three sheds for storage and external housing for the boiler.
At the front of the property is ample off-street parking and a stunning barn, currently used as storage, which has the potential to be converted, subject to planning permission
