A substantial detached equestrian house, situated in a village setting, with versatile accommodation over two floors providing up to 5 bedrooms. This spacious property has been remodelled by the current owners and offers much flexibility measuring in at over 2550 square feet. The two en-suites (the master having jacuzzi bath as well as a walk-in shower) and two shower rooms ensure that there is never a queue for the bathroom, while the kitchen/breakfast room provides ample space for cooking and informal dining. With a separate sitting room, dining room, and study, there is plenty of room and the drawing room provides a 5th bedroom for guests should it be needed.
The property boasts stables, measuring just over 1000 square foot and circa three acres of paddocks providing plenty of room for outdoor activities and enjoyment, especially for those with an equestrian interest.
To the rear, you will find a beautifully presented and maintained garden, complete with well-stocked borders, mature trees, and shrubs. Pedestrian access onto Water Lane is convenient for those wanting to get out into the surrounding countryside. The Grade II listed dovecote not only adds a touch of history and character to the garden but also provides useful garden storage and features a mature grape vine. Adjacent to the sitting room, there is a patio area, perfect for intimate dining. For those seeking relaxation, the inner courtyard with its Koi pond and well-stocked borders offers a peaceful retreat. The brick-built outdoor oven, with its integrated wood store and terracotta tiled prep area, is a dream for outdoor cooking enthusiasts and entertaining al fresco on a larger scale.
Parking is available just outside the front gates for two to three cars and once through the electric gates, a large block paved driveway and carport provide further off-road parking.
