A substantial family home, situated within an idyllic location neighbouring Galleywood Common.
Description
A wonderful family home, offering flexible living over two floors, situated in the most idyllic and private setting. Neighbouring Galleywood Common providing miles of woodland and countryside walks.
Boasting approximately 2,364 sq ft of accommodation, this substantial four-bedroom detached home offers thoughtfully designed accommodation across two floors, ideal for modern family living. Situated on a generous plot and benefitting from a detached outbuilding (237 sq ft), the property combines spacious interiors with flexibility and functionality.
On the ground floor, an entrance hall provides access to an office, perfect for home working, as well as a WC and separate utility rooms. The heart of the home lies in the expansive kitchen/dining room, fitted with a central island, wood burner and access to another utility area. Adjoining this, a magnificent 22'5" x 16'5" living room offers a relaxed entertaining space, with an inset wood burner and bi-folding doors providing access to the south-facing garden and al fresco dining area. The ground floor benefits from underfloor heating.
To the first floor, four generously proportioned bedrooms are arranged around a central landing. The principal bedroom and bedroom two feature their own en suites, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom. Upstairs bathrooms have electric underfloor heating.
Outside
The property is set back from the road and is accessed via a private, electrically operated gated driveway which offers ample off-street parking and provides access to a single garage.
To the rear, the south-facing rear gardens are private and protected by an established boundary. There are al fresco dining areas and a detached outbuilding, currently utilised as a gym but would also serve perfectly as a home office/games room.

All mains services connected. Heating is via air-source heat pump.

Woodsten occupies an idyllic position next to Galleywood Common, an area of approximately 175 acres of woodland and open common, immediately adjoining the grounds of the house.

The area is a popular spot for walking, cycling and horse riding. Nearby amenities include The Horse and Groom pub located on the common, Galleywood Heritage Centre and tea rooms and St Michaels Church.
