Property description

A three/four double bedroom detached house, with wraparound gardens, an in-out drive, and a garage, on a plot of approximately 0.27 acres overlooking paddocks and ancient woodland.

The property was originally built as a bungalow in the 1940s and has been extended and improved by the current owners to provide versatile accommodation of approximately 1,666 sq. ft. now set over two floors. The property also provides potential for further remodelling to create an integrated annexe (subject to consent). On the ground floor is an entrance hall with doors to an open plan kitchen/dining/family room overlooking the rear garden, a sitting room with an open fire and two double bedrooms. One bedroom is currently used as a study and one leads to a dressing room (which could be a fourth bedroom). There is a four piece bathroom with a walk-in shower, a bath with an inset TV, a vanity unit, a WC and inset floor lights. The utility room can be accessed from the dressing room and has doors to the garden and the garage. Upstairs there is another double bedroom with Velux windows, it has a walk-in wardrobe, an en suite two piece cloakroom, and access to eaves storage.

Kitchen/Dining/Family Room

The kitchen has been extended to create a nearly 26 ft. by over 12 ft. triple aspect kitchen/dining/family room with bi-folding doors to the patio. There are traditional style gloss fronted wall and base cabinets and a wood effect worktop with an inset ceramic sink and an instant hot water tap. The natural stone floor continues to the hallway and has partial, separately controlled underfloor-heating. There is a Cookmaster induction stove with an extractor above and space and plumbing for a dishwasher and a fridge/freezer. The layout allows ample room for a breakfast/dining table and space for relaxed family seating.

Outside

An in-and-out driveway has parking for approximately six cars, a garage with an up and over door, and side access to the rear. The rear garden has a patio spanning almost the width of the house, while the rest is mainly laid to lawn with shrub borders, a vegetable garden and two wooden sheds. There is a BBQ lodge with a central BBQ and a chimney, seating 12 people and 3 integrated pull out beds. Low level boundary fencing maximises the view over the paddocks and ancient woodland.
