Property Description - We start the description of Clee View in a most impressive open plan kitchen/dining/living room with vaulted section, exposed stone walling and oak detailing to a bespoke, central staircase. What an awe inspiring and special room this is. The kitchen sits to the right as you look out into the garden and is cleverly demarcated by thick, exposed stone detailing on two of its three walls. The wall facing the garden has three glazed units, one being uniquely triangular, having been intricately cut into the stone with aluminium framed glazing giving an almost fresh contemporary edge to this historical home. Central to the kitchen is an island consisting of oak cupboards and black granite top. This is then complimented by a row of matching oak units that incorporate a belfast sink, dishwasher, pull out bins, tall pantry unit, wood-pellet boiler with oven facility and housing for a tall fridge/freezer.
Adjoining the kitchen and set under the staircase is a section for dining which benefits from having its own set of oak framed triple glazed french doors with accompanying glazed units that run from the floor to the first floor ceiling. The doors look out onto the private and impressive grounds that this home affords. For those with equestrian/small holding needs, diners would be able to watch/admire livestock/horses graze from this vantage point.
To the other side of the staircase and nestled under the ceiling to the first floor is a welcoming sitting room. Our eyes are immediately drawn to the feature wood-burner that stands central to the space and a selection of oak framed windows again seamlessly cut into the stone walls showing their depth and natural beauty. The same limestone coloured stone flooring runs throughout this open plan room (and throughout the remainder of the ground-floor) connecting the three zones despite them each having their own individual personality.
At almost a 90 degree angle is the remaining ground-floor to this property to include: a shower room, second reception/entrance hall and bedroom/boot-room/office. The shower room has a fully tiled shower cubicle with chrome fitments, belfast sink with oak vanity base, WC, window out, oak door (echoed throughout the property) and stone wall detailing. The second reception room/entrance hall which the vendor currently uses as a sitting room boasts two sets of oak framed doors, vaulted ceiling with exposed oak A frame, exposed stone and an additional door leading to the rear garden. What an entrance this makes for any arriving guests. The vendor is using the adjoining room as a double bedroom with garden aspect but due to it having a door leading to the front driveway, the room would also lend itself to becoming an office or boot room should this be desired. It has been used for welcoming Airbnb guests and could easily be utilised as an annexe for possible multi-generational living needs.
On the first floor are three double bedrooms all with their own en-suite facilities and stunning galleried landing. The galleried landing is a masterpiece in design and craftmanship. A particular delight is the soft, pale tones of the raw oak embroidering this space as well as the variety in shape and character of each strutt/beam/hand-rail. This coupled with the magnificent views of your private grounds from the floor to ceiling windows adds to the argument that this home is truly unique and very special. Heading across the walkway with oak flooring that is echoed throughout the first floor bedroom accommodation we arrive at a spectacular bedroom with vaulted ceiling splendour. Each window frames its own view of the countryside which would make waking up here a real pleasure. It could also mean that this room could be of dual function and used as an additional reception room to make full use of this home's rural location. Further details include: cast iron radiator in steel grey, oak storage cupboard and an adjoining en-suite with WC and hand basin. Bedroom two, equally doesn't fail to impress. The run of oak storage cupboards would lend this room to possibly being a master bedroom and are beautifully constructed. There is a cosy and relaxing vibe that resonates from this room which may be a result of the A frame and sloping, timbered ceiling that nestles the occupier into the eaves. The en-suite here has a roll top bath with claw feet, stone hand-basin with oak vanity cupboard and adjoining oak storage cupboard. There is also a WC, chrome towel rail and window out. Bedroom three is also a good sized double set into the eaves with front aspect and an en-suite consisting of: large walk-in shower, stone feature hand-basin with oak vanity cupboard and velux roof light.

Garden & Land - The rear garden is circa 0.5 acres and is mainly laid to lawn. It is a blank canvas for any keen gardeners to put their own stamp on. It incorporates an area of patio adjoining the barn for moments of alfresco dining and Summer entertainment. There is a lean-to to the rear side of the property which is ideal for garden storage.

To make full advantage of the private and rural positioning of the garden and adjoining paddock the vendor has installed a timber clad Summer House. No expense has been spared in crafting this Summer House. The door and accompanying floor to ceiling glazing units are oak framed to match the beautiful oak floor. There is also lighting, electric and WiFi facility.

Leading from the garden is access to a paddock of approximately three acres which would suit any equestrian needs as the out-riding in this area would support this. Water is connected to the field.

Parking - A gated entrance leads into a private driveway with parking for several vehicles. There is an outbuilding here, ideal for the storage of wood pellets.
