Description

A 1930s extended six double bedroom detached property in an elevated position accessed via a gated driveway through woodland in formal and wooded gardens approaching 2.3 acres, with far reaching countryside views. The property has been enlarged by the current owners with a focus on modern life and entertaining. A particular highlight is the open plan kitchen/dining/family room which has two sets of bi-fold doors to an outdoor entertaining area. The ground floor also has an entrance hall with a log burner, a cloakroom, a formal sitting room with adjoining snug, a study, and a utility room.

The first floor landing has access to five double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom has a dressing room and an en suite bathroom. There is a sixth bedroom and a bathroom on the second floor which could be used as a guest suite if required.

The property is set back from the road and is screened by woodland. The sweeping drive leads to an extensive gravel parking area in front of the house and continues to a garage and triple carport at the side. The gardens have lawns, clipped hedges, woods, a fruit orchard and seating areas including a decked terrace, all bordered by open countryside.
