Conceived in 2006 and completed in 2008, Swallowfield was designed to achieve an idyllic union with the beautiful natural woodland it overlooks, the setting of the building within the plot arranged to provide high levels of privacy, in particular to the rear garden. Indeed this is such a peaceful location, we feel many visitors will be impressed with the ambience created. Another noteworthy feature is the desire to make this wonderful home as eco considerate as possible, the property being heated by a ground heat source pump system, this feature complemented by solar panels. Offered to the market with No Vendor Chain, it provides accommodation of excellent proportions, set out over three levels, great versatility being evident. For example the ground floor bedroom with ensuite very much "future-proofs" Swallowfield for the more mature owner, this room also being ideal for visiting guests. There are five reception rooms in total, the basement garden room being highly utilised during warmer months when the outlook over the enclosed rear gardens can be fully enjoyed.
