Property description
A modern architect designed five bedroom detached property in a private and peaceful position with driveway parking, a detached triple garage and workshop, and a plot of approximately 2.24 acres including landscaped formal gardens.
The property was designed in the 1990s to the former owner’s requirements, and is of timber frame construction with brick cladding under a pitched slate roof. The 2,957 sq. ft. of accommodation includes an entrance hall with a tiled floor and a staircase with wrought iron balustrades. There are three separate reception rooms, a garden room, an open plan kitchen/breakfast room, a separate utility room and cloakroom on the ground floor. A galleried landing on the first floor gives access to five double bedrooms, two with en suites, and a family shower room. There is access to the roof space and moulded ceiling covings. The principal bedroom has glazed double doors to a railed balcony with views over the landscaped gardens and countryside beyond. The property is accessed via a driveway shared with two neighbouring properties. Separate private driveways provide parking for up to four cars and access to the detached three car garage with attached workshop/garden machinery store.
Reception Rooms
The dual aspect sitting room has a brick open fireplace and a bay window with vistas to the rear. Glazed doors lead into the garden room which is of brick and triple glazed construction under a pitched vaulted ceiling. This room overlooks the gardens and has glazed doors to a paved seating area. The dining room has moulded ceiling coving and views of the rear garden. The dual aspect study was previously used as an architect’s office and has a high part vaulted ceiling with moulded coving.
Kitchen/Breakfast Room and Utility Room
The dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room has a range of solid maple cabinets with complementary work surfaces, and a central island with breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include an electric oven, a gas hob with extractor over, and there is space and plumbing for additional appliances. The utility room has a shelved storage cupboard, worksurfaces, and space and plumbing for a washing machine. There is a door to the garden and garages.
Gardens
The front garden has a gravel area with an inset water feature, and a stone path which goes round the garden room and down to an access route to the landscaped rear garden. Ornate walls throughout the gardens include a Cupola over a seating area. The plot is about 2.24 acres with areas separated by steps. There are lawns, broadleaf and coniferous trees for screening, established borders with seasonal plants and a gate and path to an ornamental pond.
