Description
Set within beautifully landscaped grounds, this exceptional home offers an abundance of characterful yet contemporary accommodation designed for both family living and entertaining. A welcoming entrance hall with understairs storage provides a full view of the stunning interior beyond, setting the tone for the remarkable spaces that follow.

The formal dining room impresses with floor-to-ceiling panelling and a stone fireplace with electric stove, while a formal sitting room with open fireplace and a separate lounge flow seamlessly into a spectacular green oak garden room - a recent addition with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the garden and bi-folding doors opening to a decked seating area. These interlinked rooms are perfect for entertaining, yet the sitting room can be closed off via two sets of double doors to create an intimate, private retreat when desired, ideal as a private study.

The heart of the home is the incredible open-plan kitchen/dining/family room. A sky lantern floods the dining and family area with natural light, while French doors connect effortlessly to the garden. The farmhouse-style kitchen combines charm and functionality, featuring a breakfast bar, Belfast sink, Rangemaster oven, and a great utility room with adjoining pantry. An inner hall (cleverly utilised as a boot room) leads to a sumptuous living room with vaulted ceiling, wood-burning stove, and French doors to the garden—another superb family space. A contemporary shower room with dual basins completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, the master bedroom boasts an en suite shower room and ample space for wardrobes. The principal guest bedroom offers a built-in wardrobe and a recently added contemporary en suite, while two further bedrooms share a luxurious family bathroom with freestanding slipper tub.

Outside, the wraparound gardens - spanning from south-west to north-east - are a true haven. A generous patio and raised deck with pergola adjoin a glass-balustraded walkway above a tranquil pond with water feature, descending to a large lawn edged by mature planting, a summer house, and a private pergola-shaded seating area. A meandering path winds through an orchard of apple, pear, and fig trees to a productive allotment complete with greenhouse, bespoke potting shed, and a stunning ‘Hartley Botanical’ orangery with Victorian-style tiled floor.

The grounds continue to reveal more delights: a large pond surrounded by mature trees offers a serene retreat, while a timber-framed outbuilding provides a one-and-a-half sized garage, double carport, and gated driveway for multiple vehicles. An additional driveway at the very front, with wooden gates, adds further practicality to this truly outstanding property.
