Full Description

Extending to approx. 3029 sq ft (including annexe and garage), this superbly conceived detached property has been the subject of a recent and transformative extension and renovation. The ground floor is arranged such that it caters for the practicalities of daily life while lending itself to the entertaining of friends and family.

There is also a walk-in larder off the kitchen. Oriented to the rear of the property and connecting ideally with the outside space, the social/dining room space is complimented by twin roof lanterns which flood the space with light. The expansive sitting room serves as a superb evening retreat while a study completes the ground floor reception rooms. In addition, there is a tucked away utility room with a door to the outside and a cloakroom. Finally, off the reception hall is a double bedroom.

To the first floor are three impressive bedrooms, with the main bedroom offering a superb view of the garden, together with a well-proportioned en suite. The additional bedrooms are well catered for in terms of storage and are served by a bathroom located off the landing.

Attached to the main house, with the option to be incorporated into the main body of the property, is a well-appointed annexe comprising two bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen and reception space.

To the front of the property there are two defined areas for parking, with provision for a number of vehicles. A smart integral garage adds to the parking options or alternatively makes for excellent storage. A well maintained and attractively planted front garden extends away from the property to a point, whilst the rear garden is given over to an extensive area of level lawn, bordered with mature hedgerows and fencing and complimented further by a generous paved terrace.
