Accommodation

This lovely family home has been significantly extended over the years from the original cottage it once was including an architect designed family room and is now a fabulous family home full of character and impressive spacious living accommodation. The property is approached from the gravel driveway through a lovely oak door to the entrance porch with windows to the side and flagstone flooring which continues through to the large hall. The hallway extends across the front of the house with stairs and a galleried landing. Walking past the oak staircase a door leads into the original part of the home which is now a large sitting room with a fireplace with stone lintel and a wood burner. Windows to the rear and side overlook the garden area with french doors giving direct access to this entertaining area of the gardens. Next to the sitting room is the snug (ideal for keeping teenage gamers happy or could be a potential fifth bedroom) with window to the front. Moving back through the hall a door gives access to the shower room with low-level WC, wash hand basin. The utility room is at the back of the hall providing space for washing machine and housing the wall mounted boiler with a door to the garden. The final door from the hall leads into the kitchen/dining room which extends from front to back with the kitchen occupying the front area with oak fronted units and a granite effect worktop and inset sink and drainer unit, a dual fuel range, dishwasher and space for American fridge/freezer. The rear portion of this room has space for a large table with french doors leading out to the garden and a door leading through to the family room. This is possibly the most impressive reception room with panoramic views over the parkland gardens. Fitted with solid oak flooring with a Portland stone fireplace with wood burner and wired for surround sound and with a cinema projector system (available by separate negotiation) and lined along one side with full height windows and patio doors accessing a decking area.

To the first floor, the galleried landing with windows to the front gives access to to the master suite at the far end with window to the front and doors to a walk in wardrobe and ensuite bathroom with panel enclosed bath, shower enclosure, WC and wash hand basin. Moving back across the landing there is an airing cupboard and door to the family bathroom which features a pretty stained glass window and a suite of low-level WC, wash hand basin, bath and shower enclosure. At the far end of the landing are the 3 remaining bedrooms with bedrooms 2 and 3 occupying the original part of the house with windows overlooking the garden and bedroom 4 with window to the front.

Outside

The long gravel driveway leads past the garage (with sliding garage door) and office then leading to the parking area at the front of the house where a door gives access to the office which is attached to the garage with electric heating, space for up to 3 to work comfortably and equipped with a kitchen area and door to a toilet. A further pedestrian door to the side of the building accesses the large garage with space for 2 vehicles easily and  a mezzanine storage area.

The garden area to the rear of the property is a dedicated entertaining space accessed from the sitting room, utility and dining area and is a pretty area with a patio seating area off the dining room with the majority of this area laid to gravel interspersed with planting. Moving around the property there is a recently built garden bar near the decking area accessed from the family room which then leads on the large parkland garden which is laid to lawn and lined with trees. At the halfway point of the garden is a greenhouse and fencing and gate which accesses the rear part of the plot (allowing a more contained area for younger children) with a treehouse to the near side of the fencing. The gardens for this property are a real crowning feature and have provided a fantastic space for fun and adventures for the current owners family.
