The substantial family accommodations (in excess of 4,900 sq ft) has been finished to a high standard and includes limestone flooring in the kitchen/utility areas, engineered oak flooring in the principal reception rooms, underfloor heating and high quality kitchen and bathroom fittings.
The spacious entrance hall gives access to the principal reception rooms which include a double aspect family room, dining room with attached servery and a study. The attractive drawing room is double aspect with an impressive inglenook style fireplace. The fantastic triple aspect kitchen/breakfast room is a real feature and includes hand built fitted units with marble worktops, Butler's sink, Quooker hot boil tap, central island with integrated ovens and hob, larder cupboards and double doors opening out to the rear terrace and gardens.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom has a vaulted ceiling with exposed timbers as well as a dressing room and beautifully appointed en suite bathroom with a slipper bath, walk-in shower and marble floor. There are five further bedrooms (two of which have en suite bath/shower rooms) and a family bathroom.
Outside, the house is approached via a gated entrance over a private gravel driveway leading to the detached triple open bay garage, parking area and house. Above the garage there is a one bedroom studio apartment which provides an open plan lounge/kitchen/dining room, bedroom and en suite bathroom. The beautifully presented gardens and grounds surround the house and are laid to lawn with a multitude of mature trees and shrubs. To the rear of the house there is a large paved terrace leading on to the lawned gardens. There is a further area of lawned garden to the side of the garage, enclosed by a tall hedge and fence, and in all the property extends to 0.8 of an acre.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
