5 bedroom detached house

Lark House is believed to have originally been two clay lump farm cottages dating back to the 1750s. The current owners have spent the last eight years breathing new life into this stunning property, creating a beautiful family home ready for its newest custodians to come in and add their page into the long story of this wonderful home.

The ground floor is designed in an open-plan L-shape. At one end is the sitting room with a large inglenook-style fireplace, with access to the large garden room that can be used throughout the year, giving more time to enjoy the lovely garden views. At the other end, a step down leads to the current owner's more formal dining room, with space for a large dining table.

At the rear of the property we find a fitted kitchen with plenty of storage and worktop space. At the end of this long room is a seating area for family meals and large glass doors that can be opened, bringing the outside in. The ground floor also benefits from a downstairs WC and utility room.

Upstairs there are five double bedrooms, the primary having been cleverly designed to have a dressing area and high specification bathroom. The next two biggest rooms have their own ensuite shower room with the other two sharing the family bathroom.

The hard landscaping area has recently been redesigned, with a large paved terrace entertaining space directly off the back of the property. Bordering this area are raised beds with a mix of planting. The garden then steps up to an expansive lawned area surrounded by mature trees and flower beds. At the very bottom of the property is a secret garden that could easily be turned back in to a vegetable garden if one wishes.

Sitting next to the property is a single garage and a double cart shed, as well as a barn with high-powered electricity which has the potential to be converted into an annexe or a workshop (STPP). With the right amount of attention and planning this space could be turned in to something truly wonderful. The property is tucked away by a post and rail fence and has been planted such to add to its privacy. There is a large shingle driveway with plenty of parking for when friends and family come to stay.
