The location is delightful! Nestled alongside the Grade II listed church, this property is approached along a quiet lane and has been carefully built to compliment the sense of peace and tranquillity of its surroundings.

Here, we have an elegantly stylish 5 bedroom detached property in superb condition and location, providing a home with executive features. From the outset, this property declares, ‘traditional quality and impeccable taste.’ Positioned at the end of Dag Lane, Church View has parking and a double garage to the rear. In fact, the garage is oak framed and cleverly provides a mezzanine storage area within.

Church View has been designed to include many of the visible characteristics of the traditional country home. Bordered behind a native hawthorn hedge, with picket gate, centrally positioned porch, character windows, chimney pot, rustic brick exterior and gabled roof, work together to create a understated appeal. It ticks so many boxes!

Come on inside, you will be delighted.

Passing through the brick porch, the hall is very light, spacious and airy. From here, the engineered oak floors sweep through and into both reception rooms. The oak detail is also repeated on the staircase and further on into the kitchen but for now let us linger in the living room. This charming, well-proportioned room features a chimney breast framed by contemporary white shelving to the left and a Charnwood log burner. The slate hearth and oak mantle, all create an attractive focal point. It is a strong characteristic of this home that traditional materials are used with contemporary style. Here they work wonderfully together.
In the living room French windows open out onto the garden and patio area, so whether enjoying the cosiness of this space on a cold winter’s night or opening out the doors to facilitate the lovely private garden for summer entertaining, this room is a winner. A second set of French doors open onto the south facing patio too. This means that this home is perfect for larger scale events and has been designed to maximise the flow of family or guests to move unhindered, while mealtimes, conversation and hospitality flow from one space to another.
The second reception room is situated at the front of the property and overlooks Dag Lane. It could certainly be used as a dining room but it could easily serve as a home office or study. It can also be reached from the hall and is decorated to be compatible with the other reception spaces to provide a light filled, contemporary room. The practical inclusion of the downstairs cloakroom next door supports the versatility of this reception room. The cloakroom is fitted to a high standard with a modern white suite and large polished floor tiles.

The heart of the home

The size and shape of this kitchen diner allows another versatile area beneath the staircase that opens up through double glass doors that adjoin the hall. This space could easily become a favourite television spot, snug chilling corner or safely monitored play area. The virtue of this is that the kitchen is generous enough to allow you to think outside of the box and simply make the space work for your specific requirements: it’s those unique possibilities that make a house into a home.

The kitchen itself is practical, full of quality storage units and appliances, yet large enough to fit a dining room table. It is fitted with white silestone work tops and solid oak cupboard doors. There is a Neff fitted cooker, induction hob and dishwasher, and Hotpoint fridge freezer. The adjoining utility room has coordinating cabinetry, an additional sink, and plumbing for a washing machine and vented tumble drier. It also has a rear door to the side of the property.
As previously indicated, the second set of French doors are in the kitchen. Once opened, they link the main living areas together across the patio. Barbequing or open air mealtimes have never been easier! The patio exploits the south facing direction and of course, the benefits of a lovely closed garden, where there is power for lighting or a patio heater. In the garden there are fruit trees and a lawn, bordered on one side by a raised vegetable bed and at the furthest point an established ash tree creates a natural haven for wild birds.

If we now return to the hall, the carpeted staircase with oak banister, leads upstairs to the generous landing and views over the garden. From here the five bedrooms and family bathroom can be accessed. All of the rooms on this floor are tastefully fitted with white, wooden panelled doors, brass door furniture and a coordinating neutral carpet, that creates consistency with the interior decoration of all the bedrooms.

The master bedroom is at the rear of the property and has an adjoining ensuite and walk in shower. The proximity to the rural delights of this location can be fully appreciated from this bedroom. Here there are delightful views of the surrounding countryside. Fitted double doored wardrobes are present in the master bedroom, and number two and five. Bedroom two also has its own ensuite with walk in shower. The family bathroom is sumptuously fitted to a very high standard with white furniture, a separate bath, shower and large tiles on the floor and part covering the walls. Throughout this property, the quality sanitary ware is fitted and has been maintained, to the highest standard.

From the outset Church View has been designed with the objective of creating a beautiful contemporary home seamlessly fitting into a quintessentially English village setting. It achieves this but more besides. Here we have the best of a traditional home but with the advantages of space, versatility and the fulfilment of executive expectations, nestled into the peaceful Dag Lane. Doesn’t everyone want to own a house with splendid views?
