6 bed detached house for sale

High Street, Sherington MK16

Set amongst spectacular and spacious grounds of around 1.5 acres, 45 High Street, Sherington is a particularly striking property of enormous charm and character. With its rendered facade it stands prominently and proudly in the centre of the village. It provides fabulous living and entertaining areas both internally and externally with a glazed cantilever walkway at first floor level demonstrating some ingenuity in connecting and creating an improved flow to the first floor accommodation.

This property further benefits from extensive and private off-street parking accessed through electric gates and leading to a double width garage. There is a separate, detached and self-contained two bedroom annexe which has a distinctive vaulted ceiling to the kitchen and sitting room area, en-suite bathroom to the first floor bedroom and French doors opening to a patio.

About The Property

The sense of space, light, and a comforting ambience is immediately apparent upon entering the property, although the centrepiece of this splendid home is potentially the hugely inviting kitchen/breakfast room with glazed patio doors opening to an absolutely stunning wisteria clad paved terrace and courtyard ideal for entertaining and family gatherings.

On entry to the property you step into a generously proportioned vestibule with a cloakroom to one corner. To one side of this grand reception area is an elegant study or snug with an impressive fireplace and a good range of shelved cabinets to one wall, the central unit having an attractive arch. The accommodation on the opposing side of the vestibule finds a library room with beamed ceiling which is open to the dining area which is also beamed to the ceiling. There are walk in storage and larder cupboards within this room. Wood flooring is predominant to these reception areas. Thereafter, step into the kitchen/breakfast which is fully glazed to the rear elevation allowing excellent natural light. The kitchen has many integrated appliances inclusive of a coffee maker, built in ovens, fridge freezer, dishwasher and wine fridge. There is also a “Quooker” instant hot water tap. A central island unit offers several cabinets, pan drawers and a “Siemens” hob. The aspect from this room is delightful towards the wisteria clad terrace. An inner lobby leads to a spacious utility room. Completing the ground floor accommodation is the slightly extended sitting room. Glazed French Doors allow views into the colourful and well stocked gardens.

On the first floor of the main dwelling there are four well-proportioned bedrooms and four bath/shower-rooms. Use of the accommodation on this floor is optional. The current owners utilise one of the double bedrooms with en suite facilities as their master bedroom but it would be possible to incorporate a bedroom to the rear of the house with a dressing room and en suite as the principal bedroom if preferred.
The self contained annex is detached from the main house and has two bedrooms, one of which is on the ground floor and two bath/shower rooms. The combined kitchen and sitting room have a significantly high vaulted ceiling and doors opening to its own paved area of patio. Adjacent to the accommodation is a convenient work room or home office.

Outside

This substantial home has garden to the front enclosed by a low wall topped by wrought iron railings which are softened by climbing greenery. This contained area of garden has a footpath bisecting two low hedge parterres. Remote controlled gates to one side open to a very lengthy gravel driveway, passing the annex and accessing a double width garage some distance beyond.

Immediately to the rear of the property is the wisteria clad paved terrace and courtyard, excellent entertainment areas which front a beautiful rill flowing gently towards the property. The rill is bordered by paving which is interspersed with shrubbery, topiary and various varieties of flowering plant. Beyond this is grassland and the double garage. Elsewhere there is a large garden shed, greenhouse and sheltered vegetable garden arranged in raised beds. Finally, there is a paddock area not currently housing any animals but neatly maintained with areas of wildflower meadow. Our sellers have a pergola in this area, a serene outdoor space to enjoy birdsong and absolute peace and quiet.
