Simply stunning. Set in a fabulous location on the edge of the village of Horton with extensive west facing views over rolling countryside, we are delighted to bring this beautifully refurbished 4/5 bedroom detached house to the market.


A superbly positioned and spacious 4/5 bedroom house with double garage/annexe potential, off-road parking, private garden and situated on the edge of the sought after village of Horton. In brief the property comprises large open plan kitchen/dining/living room, utility room, separate dining room, living room, office/playroom/bedroom 5, hallway and WC to the ground floor and 4 double bedrooms, dressing room, master ensuite and family bathroom to the first floor. Set within its own grounds the house is gated with a large circular driveway to the front and plenty of parking. The front door leads into a large, light hallway and to the left runs off into a spacious and beautifully fitted kitchen/living room with separate utility to the rear. The kitchen has a wide range of units, including integrated full size fridge and freezer, 3 built in ovens (electric oven, steam oven & microwave oven), induction hob, dishwasher and a wine fridge built into the large island. This fantastic room has bi-fold doors leading from the living area out to a generous decked terrace area and this part of the house on its own is a calming and stunning place to spend time in, a real ‘family’ area to gather in. Whilst being the perfect place to spend summer days, there is also a top of the range Jotul gas burner in the corner of the room making it a warm and cosy space in winter. In addition the ground floor has a separate dining room and another welcoming living room with log burner as well as a large study/bedroom 5 or playroom with a door leading to the back garden.
Upstairs are 4 beautifully appointed bedrooms, the master having the benefit of a large balcony area with glass surround – the most perfect place to sit and watch the sunset and get lost in the stunning views across the countryside. The master suite also has its own dressing room and ensuite bathroom complete with freestanding bath, large shower, sink with vanity unit, WC and heated towel rail. The remaining 3 generous double bedrooms all have fitted wardrobes and are beautiful bright bedrooms serviced by the family bathroom, again with freestanding bath, large shower, WC, sink and heated towel rail. No detail has been neglected in the refurbishment of this beautiful home and it really needs to be viewed to appreciate the generous accommodation on offer as well as spectacular location and views.

There is side access to the rear garden and the front garden has a built in wood-fired pizza oven and attractive front lawn with surrounding shrubs and trees. The rear garden has a large wooden decked terrace area leading from the main kitchen/living area and round the side of the house, the perfect spot for evening drinks and socialising.
