6 bedroom detached house

Parkside forms one of four distinct Grade II listed and individual barns originally part of Grange Farm and thought to date back to the early 18th century.
The house is well proportioned throughout and offers a great blend of period and contemporary elements, with a gas log burning fire, exposed beams, and vaulted ceilings in the living area. On the ground floor is a contemporary kitchen/dining room with stonework tops, an Aga, and a utility room. The kitchen then flows through to the drawing room, which is perfect for entertaining and has full length glass windows allowing in plenty of natural light. Off the drawing room is a tranquil sitting room and study. There are doors from both the kitchen and drawing room leading out to the patio and gardens.
The first floor has a principal bedroom with built in wardrobes, en suite shower room and far-reaching rural views. There are three further bedrooms, a family bathroom and a linen cupboard. The second floor has two further double bedrooms both with their own shower rooms.
All four properties at Grange Farm are equal shareholders in a LTD company to service and maintain the private communal drive, the front field and the Klargester.

Gardens & Grounds:
The grounds and gardens are a particular feature and provide an idyllic setting. The house is accessed through electric wooden gates with Cotswold stone pillars, and the gravel parking area provides parking for a few cars. There is then a stone built double garage positioned adjacent to the house for cars or further storage. The garden has been wonderfully landscaped with mature plants, seating areas, and a wonderful water fountain that gives a great sense of serenity. Past the garden and accessed through a fivebar wooden gate or a wrought iron arch is a paddock with views across Bathurst farmland. The “crown pavilion” has been positioned strategically to enjoy the sun throughout the day and early evening and provides Al Fresco dining.
All in all, circa 2.3 acres.

Mains water, electricity and gas. Gas central heating, Underfloor heating to the downstairs cloakroom and family bathroom. Private drainage to a Klargester Sewage treatment plant. Gigaclear broadband.
