The Property
Stepping through the front door of this attractive home we are welcomed by the reception hallway where the scale of the property and superb amounts of natural light that flow throughout are instantly apparent. Directly ahead we find the study enjoying the stunning views over the grounds whilst to our left we enter the sitting room. The sitting room offers a superbly proportioned space enjoying a dual aspect that again fills the room with natural light. At the rear patio doors open to a large external seating area with retractable canopy where we fully appreciate the breathtaking views. Inside a portable stove creates a cosy focal point. Back in the hall we pass the stairs and find the formal dining room set to the front, again an impressive space that takes in a view of the extensive front courtyard. Below the stairs an area for storage is found whilst the ground floor cloakroom is set to the head of the hall. Completing the ground floor accommodation we find the kitchen/breakfast room set looking onto the gardens, land and river surrounding. A range of newly fitted bespoke kitchen units line the walls and provide superb storage and working space above. To avoid arguments as to who washes up two sinks are set below the windows enjoying the views whilst a stable door opens to the kitchen garden area. A brand new range style cooker (available by separate negotiation) completes the aesthetic and ample space is made for informal dining. Climbing the stairs we arrive on the galleried landing. At the head of the stairs we find our first two bedrooms looking onto the gardens and views beyond. At the front of the house an impressive double room is set adjacent to the family bathroom where a fitted suite offers a bath with shower above, wash basin and w/c. Completing the first floor accommodation the impressive master suite is set at the head of the landing. Entering the master bedroom we pass the generous shower room whilst our eye is instantly drawn to the impressive proportions of the room. Fitted wardrobes feature and three windows enjoy the surrounding views and fill the room with natural light.

Outside
Approaching the property via Staithe Road we pass the former Maltings and arrive at the head of the road where the un-assuming frontage leads to an extensive gravelled driveway and the double garage. A wrought iron gate passes the front boundary wall that hides this impressive home and enters the most delightful front courtyard where the magic of the site starts to become apparent. The frontage provides a vast space for seating, relaxing and enjoying some shade. A path leads us to the front door passing a wealth of planted shrubs and native perennial flowers. The path continues to the side of the house where the view leaves you wanting more! To the side we find a variety of raised beds forming a kitchen garden which divides the formal gardens from the driveway to the stables. paddocks and land. This driveway is accessed via double gates from the frontage. At the rear a generous formal garden space is laid to lawn which seamlessly transitions to the land. Patio doors from the sitting room lead out to a seating area where we enjoy views of the meadows, river and stables. Post and rail fencing encloses the portable field shelter and stables and continues to form the enclosed paddock whilst all of the spaces open to the meadows which literally extend as far as the eye can see. The entire northern boundary is river fronting providing the most delightful framing to the site, whilst an extensive range of mature native trees create the most impressive backdrop to this picture perfect setting.
