Description

Exceptional Country Residence with Over 3 Acres, Self-Contained Annexe & Extensive Outbuildings

A substantial and beautifully positioned country home offering a rare combination of character, versatility and extensive grounds, with over 3 acres of land, a self-contained annexe, paddocks, stables and a detached barn.

Dating from the early 1900s, this attractive country residence offers generous and highly versatile accommodation arranged over two floors, complemented by beautifully maintained gardens, extensive parking and a range of useful outbuildings.

The property is approached via a large private driveway providing ample parking for six or more vehicles, creating an impressive arrival to this distinctive rural home.

Elegant & Versatile Accommodation

Upon entering, a generous entrance hall provides a welcoming introduction to the property, with useful storage and access to the annexe and ground-floor bathroom.

The self-contained annexe, constructed in 2015, provides excellent independent accommodation and comprises a comfortable lounge, kitchenette and bedroom, together with its own rear access onto the garden. This versatile space would be ideally suited to extended family, guests, dependent relatives or those requiring additional private accommodation.

The ground floor also features a spacious double-aspect reception room, currently used by the owners as a downstairs bedroom. With its generous proportions and French doors opening directly onto the rear garden, this versatile room could equally serve as an impressive family room, additional reception space or bedroom.

The formal dining room is positioned at the front of the property and provides an inviting setting for entertaining, with a characterful log burner and attractive tiled flooring.

Leading from the dining room is the modern, fully fitted kitchen, featuring a range cooker, contemporary units and tiled flooring. The kitchen provides direct access to the impressive rear conservatory.

Extending across the rear of the property, the large conservatory was added approximately 10 years ago and provides a wonderful additional living space, enjoying a pleasant outlook over the garden and surrounding grounds.

Four Double Bedrooms

Upstairs, the property offers four generously proportioned double bedrooms, providing excellent accommodation for a family.

Two bedrooms enjoy attractive views across the rear garden and towards the surrounding fields, while the remaining bedrooms overlook the front garden. Built-in wardrobes provide valuable storage, while the principal bedroom benefits from a charming feature fireplace.

The recently refurbished family bathroom is finished to a high standard, featuring a freestanding bath and large separate shower enclosure. Fully tiled walls and flooring complement the contemporary finish, while the outlook across the garden and fields beyond adds to the feeling of space and tranquillity.

Exceptional Grounds & Rural Setting

One of the property's most impressive features is its extensive outside space.

To the rear is a large, enclosed garden, thoughtfully separated from the surrounding paddocks and outbuildings, providing an ideal private setting for outdoor entertaining, family life and relaxation.

Beyond the garden, the property benefits from approximately 3 acres of paddock land, offering considerable versatility for equestrian, recreational or rural use.

The grounds also include a separate barn, currently utilised as a gym and storage facility, with both power and water connected. A separate stable block, also benefiting from power and water, provides further practical accommodation and enhances the property's suitability for equestrian interests.

There are also kennels positioned towards the rear of the garden.

Further Land Available

An additional 1.7 acres may also be available by separate negotiation. This comprises two adjoining paddocks which extend the existing landholding and provide an exciting opportunity to increase the overall acreage.

A Rare Country Lifestyle Opportunity

Offering a superb blend of period character, modern accommodation and extensive grounds, this is a property that provides genuine flexibility for modern family living while retaining the charm and space associated with a traditional country home.

With its substantial gardens, paddocks, annexe, stable block, barn, extensive parking and potential to acquire further adjoining land, the property offers an increasingly rare opportunity to enjoy a private rural lifestyle with exceptional versatility.
