Description

Saxon House is a unique detached, architect designed house with beautiful private gardens in the rural village of Bolton Percy. The layout makes the best of the south facing position and the interior is both bright and stylish.

A spacious kitchen/breakfast room has a generous range of sleek white fitted cabinets with granite worktops and integrated appliances. There is plenty of space for a table and chairs and double doors lead out to the garden for al fresco entertaining. The formal dining room, again benefits from glazed doors which provide views and access to the terrace and gardens. A handy utility with a guest WC leads to a pleasant study and gives convenient access to the large double garage.

The stunning double height sitting room has dual aspect windows and double doors which connect the inside and outside perfectly. A feature brick wall and open-tread staircase rise to the mezzanine level and create a light and airy feel. The mezzanine itself provides a very flexible space suitable for a variety of uses as well as access to the first floor bedrooms.

The principal bedroom has easterly views and a good range of fitted wardrobes, the family bathroom is a good size and two further spacious bedrooms have eaves Velux windows and built-in cupboards. All of these rooms have exposed beam detail which adds character. The landing hallway provides further storage and access to the second floor where you will find bedroom four, a shower room and two more stores, one which would easily convert to a dressing room.

Externally, the property is approached through timber gates which open to reveal the most beautiful garden (3/4 of an acre) filled with mature trees, high hedges and level lawns. A patio terrace provides a place to sit and enjoy the green space and the vine covered, tiled veranda, which runs along the front of the property offers shade and shelter from the weather. An integral double garage and separate garden store make sure there is no shortage of storage space.
