Property description

A modern six bedroom detached property occupying a private corner position within this small development of just six detached homes overlooking the village church situated close to the village centre and its many amenities.

The property was originally built in the late 1990s by a local builder, Cowlgrove. It has subsequently been enlarged and refurbished throughout and now has 2,495 sq. ft. of accommodation over three floors. A high emphasis has been placed on the needs of modern family life, and the ground floor has an open plan kitchen/dining/family room with two sets of bi fold doors to the rear garden. In addition, there is a separate more formal sitting room, a study, a separate utility room and a cloakroom. There are six bedrooms on the first and second floors. The principal bedroom has a dressing room, en suite bathroom, and a balcony. The second bedroom has an en suite shower room and the other two bedrooms on the first floor share a family bathroom. Two double bedrooms on the second floor share a shower room. The block paved driveway provides parking for up to four cars and access to a detached double garage which has two up and over doors, power connected, eaves storage and a side door.

Entrance Hall and Reception Rooms

The entrance hall has a staircase to the first floor with storage beneath and exposed Karndean flooring which continues into the cloakroom and kitchen/dining/family room. Both the sitting room and study overlook the driveway and front garden. The sitting room has a feature bay window and a mullioned fireplace with an inset real flame effect fire providing a focal point to the room.

Kitchen/Dining/Family Room

A major feature of the property is the open plan over 26 ft. kitchen/dining/family room which spans most of the rear of the house. The kitchen has been refitted in a contemporary range of painted Shaker style cabinets including a central island incorporating a breakfast bar. Complementary work surfaces incorporate an inset sink with a waste disposal unit and an inset induction venting hob. Additional appliances include two AEG ovens, a microwave, larder fridge/freezer and a dishwasher. Karndean flooring with underfloor heating continues into the dining/family area which has a vaulted ceiling with inset Velux skylights and two sets of bi fold doors to the garden.

Gardens

The front garden is enclosed by close boarded fencing at the side and has a shaped lawned with established borders. A gated side access and pathway gives access to the rear garden which has panoramic views over an historic village church dating from the 10th century. There is a paved outdoor entertaining area extending to the side and leading to the principally lawned garden, which has raised borders and a further raised seating area in the far corner. There are several mature trees and the garden is fully enclosed by close boarded fencing.
