3 bedroom detached house for sale

This impressive period home dates from the mid 19th century and occupies a proud and commanding position with far reaching countryside views. Our clients have enjoyed living at Tregrove House since 2010 and during their ownership have carried out numerous improvements including upgrading the kitchen, installing new bathrooms and rebuilding the conservatory. The property has also been thoughtfully reconfigured from a four bedroom home to a spacious three bedroom residence with a dressing room, creating generous and versatile living accommodation ideally suited to families or those working from home. The fourth bedroom could be recreated without difficulty.

The accommodation begins with a welcoming reception lobby with slate flooring and a separate cloakroom with high level WC. The snug provides a cosy and inviting space, complete with built in cupboards and an attractive stone and granite fireplace with inset gas fired stove.

Double multi paned doors open into the conservatory, which is fully UPVC double glazed with a tiled floor and direct access onto the patio. From here the exceptional views across the valley can be fully appreciated.

The split level landing is an attractive feature and provides access to all three bedrooms as well as a useful boarded loft space. The principal bedroom has been enlarged to create a superb suite with engineered oak flooring.
