Nestled within an expanse of about 1.47 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, this remarkable detached residence boasts timeless elegance and modern comfort. Built circa 1934, the home offers a rare blend of architectural charm and contemporary living spaces, providing an ideal environment for family life and entertaining.
Upon entering, you are welcomed by a superb reception hall with original pannelled walls leading to the generously proportioned double reception room, featuring fireplaces, a bay window that invites an abundance of natural light, and classic French doors that seamlessly connect to the garden and lake beyond.
The heart of the house is the spacious kitchen breakfast room with a range of wall and base units including fitted appliances. Adjoining is the large conservatory extending almost the length of the house which overlooks the lake. A formal dining room situated at the front of the house provides an elegant setting for dinner parties, while a dedicated study offers a quiet retreat.
Ascend the elegant staircase to the first floor which hosts four spacious double bedrooms, including the principal bedroom with an en suite bathroom complete with a separate shower. A well-appointed family bathroom with separate shower serves the remaining bedrooms.
Step outside to discover your own private oasis; the enchanting garden features a landscaped garden mainly laid to lawn with a variety of mature shrubs and hedging and an impressive tranquil lake surrounded by woodland. This unique outdoor space is perfect for leisurely strolls, picnics, or simply soaking in the serene atmosphere.
