Description
This is a substantial and beautifully positioned country home, offering an exceptional lifestyle opportunity with land, privacy, and impressive equestrian facilities, all set within grounds approaching six acres. Occupying a peaceful position on a quiet no-through lane at the edge of the village, the property enjoys far-reaching views over its own paddocks and the surrounding countryside. The house has been thoughtfully extended to create a flexible and well-balanced layout, ideally suited to modern family living. The ground floor is centred around a welcoming entrance hall, leading through to a characterful sitting room with a log burning stove and views across the gardens. To the rear, a superb kitchen/dining/family room forms the heart of the home, featuring ample modern cabinetry, granite work surfaces, a traditional Aga, and ample space for both everyday living and entertaining, with doors opening out onto the terrace. A further ground floor room provides versatility as a fifth bedroom or playroom, and, together with the adjoining shower room and utility, offers excellent potential to create a self-contained annexe if required. Upstairs, there are four very well-proportioned bedrooms, all enjoying pleasant outlooks over the grounds, along with a modern family bathroom, and stunning en-suite to master complete with walk-in shower, free-standing bath and 'Jack and Jill' sink units.
Outside, the property is approached via an in-and-out driveway providing extensive parking and access to a detached garage. Attached to the garage is the added bonus of a multi-functional space - complete with two reception rooms and a shower room, having been converted by it's current occupiers. The gardens have been carefully landscaped, with a generous terrace leading onto formal lawns, well-stocked borders, and a raised decking area. Beyond, a charming orchard with a greenhouse creates a wonderful extension of the outdoor space. For those with equestrian or lifestyle interests, the property is exceptionally well-equipped. The land extends to approximately six acres and is divided into a number of well-maintained paddocks, all enclosed by post and rail fencing and with water supply. A stable block provides four loose boxes with power and water, complemented by a range of outbuildings including barns suitable for hay storage, machinery, or further adaptation (subject to planning), and a former brick-built piggery offering additional storage or potential for alternative uses. Rarely does a property combine such a desirable setting, generous accommodation, and extensive grounds with this level of versatility, making it an outstanding family home with significant lifestyle appeal.
Location - Potton is a charming market town offering a good range of everyday amenities, including a supermarket, independent shops, and a selection of pubs and restaurants. The town also benefits from both medical and dental practices, as well as well-regarded lower and middle schools.
