'Stoneleigh House' and the adjoining annexe 'Stoneleigh Barn' sit at the head of the most beautiful gardens, abundant with specimen flowering plants, trees and shrubs - interspersed by secluded seating areas, all overseen from the covered veranda at the back of the house - a perfect spot for a morning coffee or evening cocktail. This stunning and unique home enjoys a plot of circa 0.48 acres, with gravelled parking to the front, a workshop/store to the side and a south-facing rear aspect, all set well back from the lane in front. The main house is of an individual contemporary design over three levels - a welcoming hallway connects to an open-plan lounge (with wood-burning stove) and dining space across the rear, with doors to the verandah bringing the outside in. Plus a separate study/music room, a utility room, a cloakroom and a luxury fitted kitchen - complete with an island and a cosy eating/seating area in the corner. The first-floor galleried landing is a lovely space to sit and admire the garden from above, through the full height windows. There are three bedrooms on this level - including the principle bedroom with balcony, fitted wardrobes and en-suite, plus the main bathroom with a high vaulted ceiling and roll-top bath. A walk-through study area leads to another staircase taking you up to bedrooms four and five. The independent two-storey annexe offers both ground and first floor en-suite bedrooms, plus lounge, dining room and kitchen - perfect for a dependent relative or as an additional source of income. There are too few superlatives to describe the gardens fully - they are a delight, attracting visitors through the 'National Open Garden Scheme' - the 'S-shaped lawn connects themed areas planted with trees, shrubs, perennials and bulbs for year-round interest'. A village oasis - somewhere quite special!
