Description

The property is situated on the edge of this highly regarded village, set back behind a tall, mature hedge, the house is discreetly positioned and approached via a dual entry driveway with electric gates, providing generous parking. The frontage is laid to lawn with formal box hedging bordering the footpath leading to the solid timber front door.

The principal living, dining and kitchen space is of generous proportions and arranged to provide defined yet flexible areas. A curved glazed wall formed by multiple bi fold doors opens onto the rear garden. Natural light is enhanced by a lantern roof light with temperature and rain sensors. A partial dividing wall creates definition allowing the living area to feel independent from the kitchen. This living area enjoys the far reaching views to the rear whilst being set around a wood burning stove. The kitchen and breakfast area is fitted with a bespoke range of units arranged around a central workstation with quartz worktops, integrated power points and a breakfast bar incorporating an induction hob and additional oven. Appliances include twin fan ovens, microwave, warming drawers and space for an American style fridge/freezer, together with extensive soft close storage. In addition there is a built in pantry offering substantial storage. The laundry and utility room is well sized and fitted with a range of storage units and work surfaces, with plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, and a door opening to the rear garden. A fire door provides internal access to the garage and store areas. A further reception room, currently used as a home office, has a window to the front and French doors opening onto a side garden terrace, and could alternatively serve as a playroom or family room. This room leads through to the spa, which contains a hot tub, surround sound system, vaulted ceiling with glazed lantern roof, bi fold doors to the rear garden and additional French doors to the side terrace.

The first floor landing provides access to the loft and a storage cupboard housing the communications hub, which provides Cat 5 cabling throughout and controls the integrated lighting and audio systems. The principal bedroom suite features a vaulted ceiling and a full height glazed gable wall with open countryside views. There is a walk in wardrobe and double doors opening onto a wrap around balcony. A sliding frosted glazed door leads to the newly fitted en suite bathroom, which includes a floating double wash basin, low level WC, stand-alone bath and double walk in shower.
