Aletta Shaw are genuinely delighted to bring this quite exceptional family home to the market. There is so much to this very special property that no written description can truly do it justice -but we’ll try anyway!
Access to the property is gained from a secluded, long driveway bordered by a lawned garden area which itself is bordered with mature shrubs and trees and a large pond. As you near the house, you immediately realise that the design is a unique mix of traditional country house with a contemporary twist.
The contemporary element is particularly evident with the triangular, glass-porched entrance to the house. Once inside, we find a large, bright hallway and majestic wooden staircase which provides so many choices of where to look next.
Let’s start with the largest room on the ground floor; the main living room. Situated off of the hallway, at almost 31ft long, this is a quite splendid family room adorned with an imposing brick fireplace. Moving further into the ground floor, we then find a fine study, full of natural light. Stylish double doors then lead us into a quite beautiful conservatory with panoramic views of the quintessentially English country garden; an area in which you could easily envisage spending a whole day.
As we further explore the ground floor, we now find a fine, beautifully decorated and fitted ‘country’ style kitchen. Off of the kitchen is a utility room, and a w/c.
Moving back towards the front of the ground floor, we now find another sizeable reception room and double doors lead us into a similarly sized dining room. For larger gatherings, this could easily serve as one through space.
Exploring the ground floor area of this house could be exhausting so you may need to venture upstairs for a lie down; choosing one of the 4 large bedrooms on offer.
The staircase itself is a masterpiece and towards the top, it overlooks the dining area below. Once upstairs, we find a bedroom at the front of the house which benefits from a stunning addition in a large, glass fronted en-suite area, quite unlike anything you may have seen before.
Two further bedrooms, situated either side of the centre of the house are both sizeable and one has the added feature of ‘walk-in’ storage rooms.
Towards the rear of the house, we find the largest of all 4 bedrooms with a huge window overlooking the rear garden. We also find a separate bathroom / shower and WC and separate from this is another WC area.
You will by now already understand why this house falls into the ‘exceptional’ category and we haven’t set foot into the fine country garden yet.
Our conservatory is framed by a huge patio area, ample room for plenty of garden furniture etc. The rear garden itself is huge and includes a large lawned area, mature trees and shrubs, a greenhouse and vegetable patch, a log storage area and perhaps best of all, a wooden summerhouse. Aside from this, there is also a larger than expected garage, access to which is via a driveway at the side of the property.
