Description
Magpie house is a detached property built of stone with a slate roof situated in the village in an elevated position. It has oak bespoke windows and underfloor heating throughout and offers fantastic open plan living for any family. The garden and paddock are situated so the house has easy access to both with stunning views from the main reception rooms and bedrooms.
Entrance porch leads through to the utility/boot room with sink and built in cupboards. Oak flooring runs throughout the ground floor giving a seamless flow of the ground floor living space. A bespoke kitchen with large central island unit/ breakfast bar. There is a six ring electric Rangemaster fan oven and built in Hotpoint dishwasher. The dining room has double glass doors out to the terrace with vaulted ceiling benefitting from the natural light which floods through into both rooms. The adjoining sitting room, with generous proportions, has a wood burning stove as the main focal point with double doors leading through to the main reception hall. From here is access to the study, perfect for home working, front entrance porch and stairs to the first floor.
On the first floor are four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principle bedroom with contemporary en suite shower room and dressing room area has views over the paddock and gardens. Bedroom two has an en suite shower.
Outside the house has a gravel drive with parking for several cars. The gardens surround the property with the majority of the garden to the rear, mostly laid to lawn. There is a paddock with recently planted orchard and young trees in all about two acres, fenced with post and rail fencing. There is a stable/shed for outdoor equipment to be stored in. There is right of way over the neighbouring drive for access to the paddock. This house would suit a family or those looking to get out of the city to enjoy the benefits of the open countryside.
