The ground and lower ground floors boast an array of living and leisure areas including a stylishly presented formal sitting room with a baronial gas log burner and French doors leading to a balcony. The open plan kitchen/breakfast room is the hub of the house with French doors leading out onto a balcony offering a wonderful outlook over the garden. The kitchen itself offers a range of neutral wall and base units with stunning granite work surfaces, a central island and breakfast bar, space for an array of appliances and dining table, and a good-sized walkin pantry. Also of note on this level there is a formal dining room and guest cloakroom.
On the lower ground floor there is a useful laundry room and luxuriously appointed steam room, as well as family and garden rooms, both with access out to the garden.
The principal suite is located on the first floor at the rear of the house, comprising a large double bedroom with walk-in dressing room and an en suite bathroom which has been stylishly appointed with state of the art, good quality sanitary ware. There are two further en suite bedrooms on this level. Stairs lead up to the second floor where there are two further bedrooms, served by a family bathroom.
The house is approached from the lane by a gravel driveway with parking for multiple vehicles and leading to the double garage. At the rear of the house there is a wonderful garden screened with mature conifers which faces south-east and has been beautifully landscaped to offer a large Indian sandstone sun terrace stretching across the back of the property, an ideal place to enjoy alfresco entertaining. This leads to an expanse of lawn with a sandstone outcrop displayed and steps leading up to a wild area of garden where there are a number of mature specimen trees and ferns. A particular highlight in the garden is a fully insulated summer house with electricity which offers a peaceful retreat, ideal for relaxing or working. Furthermore, there is a large storage chamber which offers a great space for keeping garden equipment and general storage.
