Purbeck House was built by the current owner four decades ago to a high specification. Spacious, light, and airy room with plenty of storage was high on the agenda. Additional extensions over the years have created a well-proportioned five bedroom, three bathroom family home. There is even further scope if the next owner wishes to create a self-contained annexe within the large integral garage. The sitting room has a pleasant aspect to both front and rear gardens plus an attractive Bath stone fireplace. Designed with family entertaining in mind, the dining room is located adjacent to the kitchen/breakfast room, both with double doors opening out to the garden and a patio linking both together. There is also a snooker room again with double doors to the garden. The principal bedroom suite on the first floor has pleasant views over the greenery to the fields beyond and it benefits from an en-suite bathroom. With four further bedrooms and two bathrooms this is a great family home.
Outside
A shared drive leads to a sweeping private drive leading to the front of the house with ample parking and a triple garage. The garden to the front is laid to lawn and enclosed by mature hedging and specimen trees. The garden continues to the side and to the charming rear garden, again with a large level lawn and mature trees plus a patio area running the length of the house. All in 0.578 acres.
