3 bedroom detached house for sale

Gallandes is a very attractive Grade II listed home, believed to date back to 1742, that has been refurbished throughout by our clients. Some of the work they have done includes new Heritage double-glazed windows, upgraded kitchen which was bespoke made by Masterclass, and bathrooms, the enlargement of two dormer windows on the top floor, and landscaping the gardens, to name just a few. There is an entrance hall that provides storage for coats and shoes, which leads into the dining room. The dining room is open plan to the kitchen and features a built-in banquette seat, bespoke made by the kitchen company, and a large table—a perfect place for entertaining. The newly installed kitchen is a beautiful space, more recently added to the property, with an impressive vaulted ceiling and two sets of double doors leading to the rear garden. It is complemented by a large island with a stone worktop. On the ground floor, there is also a sitting room, with a log-burning stove centrally located in the room, along with double doors leading to the rear garden. The rear garden has been beautifully landscaped and designed and is accessed via the two sets of double doors from the kitchen, as well as the double doors from the sitting room. The garden is predominantly laid out over two tiers. A large, tiled patio provides an ideal space for seating, with central steps leading to the top tier of the garden. This area has been levelled and features a newly installed summer house, which is fully insulated and benefits from electricity and Wi-Fi. The garden is bordered by closed-board fencing, and there are two garden sheds providing ample storage, as well as mature planting between the two levels. A professional outdoor lighting system has also been installed up the stairs and in some of the flower beds which helps with the ambiance.
