The property benefits from air-source heat pump heating systems, providing an efficient and environmentally conscious source of heating and hot water throughout the home.
The property is approached via a choice of two welcoming entrances, positioned to the front and side.

At the heart of the home is the impressive kitchen/family room, a wonderful space with vaulted ceilings and Velux windows that flood the room with natural light. Generously proportioned and centred around open-plan living, the room provides the perfect setting for both everyday family life and entertaining. The kitchen features a traditional in-frame Shaker design, a substantial breakfast bar and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances. A dedicated family seating area is centred around a log-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting focal point.
There are two further reception rooms, including a beautiful dining room with herringbone parquet flooring and attractive wall panelling, together with a lounge featuring a corner log-burning stove and lantern roof light. Both rooms sit adjacent to one another and benefit from bi-folding doors opening directly onto the extensive patio and outdoor entertaining area.
The second hallway, accessed from the front of the property, provides access to all four bedrooms. The impressive principal bedroom suite enjoys dual-aspect and excellent natural light, extending from the front to the rear of the property. There is a walk-in dressing room and a luxurious, high-specification en-suite bathroom featuring a freestanding bath, walk-in shower, twin vanity basins and WC.
Bedrooms two and three share use of the family bathroom, while bedroom four benefits from its own en-suite shower room.
A further door from the principal bedroom, with separate external access, leads to a versatile office and games room, complete with a second kitchen. This superb additional space offers considerable flexibility and could be utilised in a number of ways, whether as a home office, games room, entertaining space or potentially as accommodation for guests or extended family, subject to any necessary consents. Bi-folding doors open directly onto the outdoor entertaining area, creating an excellent connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.
The outside entertaining area is particularly impressive and includes a covered hot tub, sauna, outdoor kitchen area, BBQ hut and golf simulator (technology not included), providing an exceptional setting for entertaining family and friends throughout the year.
Externally, the property is approached via a long private driveway providing ample parking for numerous vehicles, together with a timber-built dual car port and garden store.
Beyond the extensive patio and entertaining areas lies the substantial private garden, beautifully framed and protected by mature, established trees which provide an excellent degree of privacy. Wide paved steps lead from the patio into the garden, bordered by neatly trimmed hedges, established shrubs and well-stocked flowerbeds.
The lower garden is predominantly laid to lawn, creating a wonderful expanse of open space, while the elevated position of the property affords far-reaching and truly breathtaking views across the surrounding countryside. The setting is exceptionally peaceful and private, yet remains conveniently positioned for access to nearby amenities and transport links.
In summary, Tallymans Cottage is a truly exceptional home offering 3,376 sq ft (314 sq m) of beautifully presented and thoughtfully designed accommodation.
