There are two double bedrooms (one with en suite shower room and French doors), family shower room and utility room. The first floor provides the principal suite with en suite bathroom and walk-in dressing room (which could provide a fourth bedroom) with cloakroom.
A curved brick wall marks the main entrance to the property, with wrought-iron gates opening to a driveway which gives access to the rear of the house, garaging and offers parking for numerous vehicles. A second gate opens to the front of the house, leading to a gravelled area.
The gardens and grounds are designed to create a tranquil sanctuary that is perfect for relaxation and leisure. Features include an outdoor pool with terraced surround for lounging with covered seating area alongside, an outdoor kitchen and a putting green. An attractive rockery garden beside a carp pond with decked edging and a vast terrace with decorative paving adjoins the rear of the two dwellings, offering opportunities to extend the living environment to the outside for alfresco entertaining.
Two substantial, timber-clad outbuildings provide for recreational use with one offering a games room and adjoining cinema room with bar area, with a reception room with cloakroom and adjoining gym above. The other provides a large workshop with changing rooms and showers to one aspect and an adjacent quadruple garage. A cabin in the grounds offers an occasional bedroom with cloakroom facilities.

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
