THE PROPERTY
Tucked away near the heart of the most sought after village of Netherbury first glimpses of this wonderful property are most impressive. Constructed in 2002 of local Ham stone under a pitched slate roof, this lovely property is well set back from a quiet country lane and approached via a shared gravel and tarmac drive.
On first entering the property there is a real sense of charm, space, and light with a large hall leading into the most fantastic sitting room, perfectly proportioned with a central fireplace and wood burning stove, exposed wooden beams, and double doors leading out to the garden. Also on the ground floor is a cloakroom and boot room, and a fabulous family kitchen exemplifying modern living, incorporating a number of pretty wall and base units, an Aga (cream), plenty of room for a kitchen/dining table and even a sofa! There are double doors leading out to a most fantastic covered (Crocodile) terrace ideal for al fresco dining or a morning cup of coffee.
The principal bedrooms are situated on the first floor, with three beautiful bedrooms including a very good-sized master bedroom with superb country views and an en suite shower and even a walk-in wardrobe. There is also a separate family bathroom, again with views over the delightful garden. On the second floor is yet more accommodation with two more bedrooms, ideal for guests or teenagers, one with a WC, and both with Velux windows attracting a lot of natural light.
To the front of the house is a double garage with light, power, and water, and wooden steps leading up to a fantastic first floor room which would make a great home office or studio, or even a games room. The delightful garden lies to the rear of the property and is private and easily maintained with plenty of spots to sit and take in this most tranquil setting.
All in all, this is a truly wonderful property in an idyllic yet very convenient location.
