A fine, up-to-date detached family house, situated just outside this most attractive village.
Description
An extended, attractive original design, dating from the 1980's, which has been enhanced and improved over time, offering modern, spacious, and well presented family accommodation today.
Downstairs there are two formal reception rooms and a generous study, which combine well with the very spacious, kitchen/family room, from where the rear garden and outside entertaining spaces are easily accessed.
Upstairs, there are five bedrooms, including a principal suite with dressing room and bathroom, and a guest suite with en suite shower room, plus a family bathroom.
Generally, the house is very well appointed and fitted, with an up-to-date and well designed kitchen, incorporating mainly Neff appliances, complementing the modern bathrooms and shower room upstairs. Downstairs features oak style flooring with underfloor central heating and with radiators upstairs. The windows are replacement double glazing, including two feature sliding sets of wide patio doors in the kitchen/family room, opening to the rear and side terracing and the covered outside dining area.
Overall, there is a feeling of space and light in a delightful country like environment and this is enhanced by the mature plot, with park-like lawn gardens to the front and rear, interspersed with trees. The rear garden benefits from a large lawn with hedging to the boundaries and a delightful pond, with an extensive outdoor entertainment terrace and with a covered, decked dining area to the side, overlooking a sunken, feature planted garden.
The detached garage has a useful studio annexe in the roof space above, with a shower room, very useful for overflow accommodation, or for a variety of alternative uses, including potentially, a working from home office.
