Great Gables is a fabulous detached family residence set within extensive grounds overlooking fields on the fringe of this popular village. Virtually unrecognisable from the original home the property has been sympathetically rebuilt and extended beyond expectations by the present owners to create a first class stunning four/five bedroom dwelling capturing an elegant and sophisticated open plan farm style interior with the 'WOW' factor.
No stone has been left unturned from the new roof to major building works including various extensions, creating a spacious Reception Hall and staircase with galleried Landing, three individual Reception Rooms, an outstanding Living/Dining Kitchen, a further large Utility Kitchen, Shower Room/Utility and Boot Room. Upstairs there are four great size Bedrooms including the principal and guest suites with Shower Rooms and a large Family Bathroom. The majority of the Ground Floor is fitted with engineered oak flooring and has been designed with extra wide doors suitable for disabled access.
On entering one is greeted by an impressive and well designed Reception Hall from where the return staircase rises to the galleried Landing, a modern Cloakroom and a large Utility/Shower Room which has plumbing in-situ for redesigning if required. Across from the hall are two lovely bay fronted Reception Rooms providing great flexibility, one currently used as a Snug/Bedroom Five and the other a good size Home Office/Playroom. The spacious main Sitting Room is positioned at the end of the hall with French doors overlooking the rear garden and featuring a brick fireplace with Hunter cast iron log burning stove.
An open plan doorway leads directly into a stunning farmhouse style Living Kitchen extending to 26' in length displaying a range of shaker style cabinets in a Tewkesbury Stone grey finish complete with a large island unit, quartz worktops and floating oak breakfast bar. The kitchen is well equipped with a host of quality AEG appliances and has been designed for entertaining with a large dining area and extra fridges with pull-out drinks cabinets and ice making machine. Beyond is a large Utility/Preparation Kitchen and a useful Boot Room with integral door to the Garage.
At the first floor level there is a superb galleried Landing with access to the boarded loft space. There are four large bedrooms including the excellent principal Bedroom with an ensuite Shower/Wet Room and the guest Bedroom with a bespoke Shower Room. Completing the accommodation is a spacious and breathtaking family Bathroom, beautifully tiled with Hudson and Reed tap fittings, featuring a roll top bath and designer walk in glass shower.
Occupying an extra wide plot, Great Gables is approached through electric double gates onto a large gravel driveway serving an integral Garage with additional parking. The front garden is laid to lawn set behind a mature laurel hedge with hidden gate adding extra privacy whilst the rear garden is also a delight to see with its extensive modern grey patio spanning the rear of the house. To the side is a newly created purpose-built barbecuing area complete with a large gazebo available by separate negotiation. The main garden is lawned and landscaped with pathways, various quality sheds and is enclosed by fencing ensuring privacy for the present owners. A fabulous and individual family home not to be missed and sensibly priced - viewing is absolutely essential.
