Description

**Guide Price £1,250,000 - £1,350,000**
The Fountain is a delightful four bedroom detached house set in 1.4 acres with a stream running through the grounds. The house has a large detached barn which is currently set as a workshop having being used as a theatre in the past and is ideal for conversion into further ancillary accommodation

Description
The Fountain is a detached house with external elevations of brick, weather board and tile all hanging under a tiled roof. The house has a wealth of period features running throughout, including inglenook fireplaces and exposed timber beams. The accommodation offers flexible living and sleeping arrangements and is laid out as follows:
• The property is accessed from the rear of the house where the main door opens into a utility/boot room which has a low ceiling, a door leads to a cloakroom with wc and handwash basin. A further door leads into a garden room/snug, with a large inglenook fireplace with inset woodburner with exposed timber beams and window overlooking the garden. A door and half staircase lead up to an inner hallway where there is a cloakroom and access to the original front
entrance. A further staircase leads up to the landing and there is access down
to the cellars.
• The cellars are split into four, of which three are interconnecting and one is accessed from the garden. The cellars are partially below ground which could, potentially, be converted into further accommodation.
• The kitchen/dining room is off the inner hallway with wooden floors and a bespoke fitted kitchen with a range of fitted cupboards and drawers, an inset butlers sink and a floor to ceiling larder cupboard. The wooden floors continue into the dining area where there is a projecting chimney breast with a wood burner within. Also off the hallway is a useful study beyond which double doors lead into a sitting room with a vaulted ceiling and a triple aspect with views over the garden and grounds.
• The main double bedroom suite has a fitted cupboard and walkthrough dressing area with a door giving access to the garden. Off this room is the bathroom with double sink unit, stand alone bath with shower over and a WC.
Stairs from the dressing area connect up to the main dressing room. The first floor is accessed from the inner hallway via the main staircase. This floor comprises three double bedrooms one of which connects to the dressing room of the master bedroom below. There is a family bathroom which has bath with shower over, WC and pedestal basin.

Outside
The House benefits from a large detached barn which is currently set up as a store room and workshop. The barn used to be used as a theatre and has power connected and would be ideal for conversion into further ancillary accommodation or an annexe. There our further outbuildings providing additional storage.
The house is accessed over its own driveway providing parking for several cars. The house is set in 1.4 acres which is a mix of park like gardens and pasture interspersed with mature specimen trees. A small stream runs through the garden and connects to the Tide Brook (water course) which runs along the boundary of the property.
