The ground floor also offers a formal dining room, a spacious office and a well-appointed kitchen with adjoining utility and laundry rooms. A standout feature of the property is the converted garage, now transformed into an impressive gym/games room with additional storage, offering excellent flexibility for leisure, entertaining or home working requirements.

To the first floor are five well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous principal suite complete with shutter blinds and an en suite bathroom complemented by a stunning modern family bathroom featuring a luxurious spa bath, creating the perfect space to relax and unwind. A spacious landing further enhances the sense of space throughout the first floor.

Externally, the property truly excels. The mature gardens and grounds are a major feature, beautifully maintained to create a peaceful parkland-style setting with expansive lawns, established trees, landscaped borders, a pond and far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside. Superb outdoor entertaining spaces include a covered social area overlooking the paved terrace, together with a covered BBQ area complete with pizza oven ideal for hosting family and friends throughout the year.

Beyond the formal gardens is a large grassed field split into three paddocks, which could be utilised for equestrian purposes, small livestock, the creation of a private orchard, or simply enjoyed as part of the wonderful grounds and outdoor lifestyle this exceptional property has to offer. Nearby bridle paths further enhance the appeal for countryside enthusiasts.

Further benefits include gas central heating and double glazed windows throughout.

The sweeping driveway further enhances the sense of exclusivity and grandeur, while the substantial plot provides exceptional outdoor space for recreation, entertaining and lifestyle living.
