Description

Occupying a peaceful position within this sought-after rural village, Sunny View is a wonderfully individual detached family home offering versatile split-level accommodation, complemented by equestrian facilities, a detached garden studio and approximately 1.77 acres of gardens and paddocks. The property enjoys an enviable west-facing aspect, allowing far-reaching countryside views and spectacular evening sunsets.

Originally dating back to the early 20th century, the home has evolved over the years through thoughtful extensions and improvements, creating a spacious residence perfectly suited to modern family living. Characterful features blend effortlessly with contemporary additions, resulting in a home that feels both welcoming and practical.

The entrance opens into a welcoming hallway, setting the tone for the generous accommodation throughout. On this level are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, all enjoying attractive outlooks and served by an elegant family bathroom complete with a freestanding roll-top bath, separate shower enclosure and traditional fittings.

The principal reception room is undoubtedly one of the highlights of the home. Bathed in natural light, this impressive space centres around a feature brick fireplace with wood-burning stove, while full-width bi-folding doors frame the beautiful westerly views and open onto an elevated balcony overlooking the grounds. A separate study provides an ideal home office or reading room, with glazed doors leading through to the conservatory.

The lower ground floor has been designed with entertaining and everyday family life in mind. A superb open-plan kitchen, dining and family room forms the heart of the home, featuring bespoke cabinetry, quartz worktops, a Rangemaster cooker and a butler sink. The dining area opens directly onto the rear terrace through bi-fold doors, creating an effortless connection between the house and garden. A separate utility room, boot room and cloakroom provide excellent day-to-day practicality.

Occupying the upper floor, the principal bedroom suite offers a peaceful retreat with a dedicated dressing area, extensive wardrobe storage and a beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom featuring both a roll-top bath and separate shower.

Approached via a generous driveway providing extensive parking, the property enjoys mature gardens surrounding the house with beautifully established planting and several seating areas positioned to make the most of the countryside setting.

A detached garden studio provides highly versatile additional accommodation, equally suited as a guest suite, home office, gym or hobby room, complete with its own shower room and kitchenette. Adjacent to the studio is a private terrace with hot tub.

Beyond the formal gardens, the land extends to approximately 1.77 acres, incorporating level paddocks together with a range of equestrian outbuildings, making the property particularly appealing to those with horses or anyone seeking a lifestyle property with space to enjoy. The property offers four stables, hay storage, water and electrics to the yard.

Sunny View represents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial village home combining flexible family accommodation with equestrian facilities, beautiful countryside surroundings and exceptional versatility, all within easy reach of neighboring towns, excellent schools and transport links.
