Creating an outstanding sense of height and space, this exceptional room extends out beneath the exposed oak beams of a magnificent vaulted ceiling. Natural light tumbles down via a duo of perfectly placed skylights while French doors within bay windows entice you out onto spacious terracing. Ideal for daily life the large dining room area has the versatility to be an enviable place to simply sit back and relax while the kitchen is superbly appointed with beautifully crafted solid oak Shaker cabinetry topped with granite. The wrap-around layout gives delineation to the space whilst maintaining the sociable feel and the considered design has dedicated places for a Rangemaster cooker and Kenwood dishwasher. A matching utility room keeps laundry appliances hidden from view and gives convenient access to the integral double length garaging.

The deep tones of the wood floor flow seamlessly into the adjoining large formal dining room with its leaded windows and feature alcove and continue in two further reception rooms and a study. Combining to provide a wonderful interconnecting triple aspect layout, the excellent main reception room and family room have leafy vistas in each direction. Whilst one has the homely focal point of a wood burner the other has further bay windows with French doors that connect with the terracing to effortlessly engender an easy flowing extension of this inviting space. The additional study complements the aesthetics and as well as being a peaceful haven when working from home can easily become a playroom, gym or snug if you’d rather. Ideally placed for afternoons spent in the pool, a ground floor shower room completes the layout.

Adding to the graceful sense of style, the classic architecture of a turning staircase weaves gently up to the split level first floor where six bedrooms produce an ideal degree of flexible family accommodation. Creating its own wing of the house, the quiet luxury of the principal bedroom conjures a tranquil retreat from the hubbub of daily life and has the added benefit of air conditioning. Filled with light, its admirable dimensions open from French doors onto an extensive south-facing decked balcony that makes it temptingly easy to recline in the summer sun or sit and watch the stars with a nightcap.

A fitted walk-in wardrobe supplies ample storage without encroaching on the feel of the room and a discerning en suite has twin basins, a walk-in shower and jacuzzi bathtub.
Three of the additional five bedrooms have tastefully chosen fitted wardrobes and teenagers will love the sense of privacy of one that sits tucked back on its own raised level with an en suite shower room. Together the others all share a superb family bathroom where a countertop basin sits atop a vintage solid wood cabinet, a shower cubicle has a contemporary rainfall head and a bathtub is encased in stone mosaics. A separate WC is an added bonus for busy mornings and family life.

It’s good to note that a substantial loft with two access points is boarded and insulated, and that the house has a secure safe and an alarm system.

Step out from French doors within the bay windows of the family room or kitchen/dining room into picturesque south-facing gardens that offer a prized measure of privacy and seclusion. Unwind on a brilliantly broad terrace and enjoy outdoor meals with family and friends or sit back and admire the tranquillity of your surroundings. Framed by heavenly high borders, an established lawn stretches out before you bordered by a shingle path that takes you down to a glazed pool house with a 10m long pool heated by an air source pump.

Explore further and you’ll find a wood store that will keep you nicely stocked for the winter months and a wooded area directly adjoining neighbouring paddocks where you can watch Shetland ponies and sheep grazing in the sunshine.
At the front of the house, a prodigious in/out gravel driveway combines with an integral double length garage and carport to provide copious off-road parking. Double doors open from the rear of the garaging into the gardens and you’ll find handy storage within a timber shed behind the carport. An expanse of solar panels on the south side of the roof helps to make this Pirbright village home energy efficient.
