Property description

A detached four/five bedroom property with potential for a separate annexe, standing in an elevated position on a plot of 0.42 acres with driveway parking and a rear garden with views over open countryside.

Scrimmington extends to approximately 2,300 sq. ft. of accommodation arranged over two floors with a flexible layout providing the option of a self-contained one bedroom annexe. The main house has a glazed entrance porch opening to a hall with a staircase and doors to the sitting room, leading to the conservatory/garden room, and the kitchen/dining room, which accesses the utility and family rooms; there is also a study. Upstairs are four first floor bedrooms, one fitted as a dressing room, one with an en suite shower, and there is a three piece family bathroom. The self-contained annexe/guest wing has separate external access although it is linked and can be used as one property. There is a vaulted open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room with a wood burning stove and steps up to a vaulted double bedroom with a Juliet balcony and eaves storage. The kitchen area has an electric hob and oven with an extractor canopy over, and space for a washing machine and under-counter fridge/freezer.

Reception Rooms and Kitchen

The triple aspect, over 21 ft. long sitting room has a bay window to the front and French doors to the conservatory/garden room as well as a fireplace with a wood burning stove. The open plan kitchen/dining room has a freestanding electric cooker, a drinks fridge and space and plumbing for a dishwasher. The dining area has a bay window to the front and space for a table seating six. There is a separate study to the front of the property and a split-level family room with a mezzanine storage area and a connecting door to the boot room which also acts as a separate entrance for the guest accommodation/annexe.

Outside

To the front of the property is a gated driveway providing off street parking for up to four cars and an extended driveway which continues via a second gate to additional parking and a double garage to the rear. Adjacent to the rear of the house is a raised paved seating area with a brick well with a canopy over. Steps lead from the rear drive to the lawned garden with mature trees and partial hedging. There is storage beneath the conservatory, accessed from the north side.
