A charming five bedroom family home with south facing garden and views across the countryside.

Description

Set in approximately 0.75 acres, this quintessentially English five bedroom period family home offers a harmonious blend of character, comfort and expansive living across over 3,000 sq ft of accommodation, with wonderful views across the surrounding countryside.

The welcoming hallway leads through to a series of reception rooms. To the left, a snug/playroom with dual-aspect windows and feature fireplace offers a versatile space. A door allows for outside access towards the garage. Adjacent is the sitting room, also with an open fireplace, providing an expansive, light-filled setting with views to the garden and double doors leading on to the terrace.

The dining room is positioned on the opposite side of the hallway, with large sash windows filling the room with natural light. The adjoining kitchen/breakfast room has an Aga, wooden cabinetry, and a breakfast bar, with a built-in seating area surrounding a standalone dining table. A utility room with an outside door and a downstairs cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor comprises a bright landing leading to bedrooms two, three and four, and the family bathroom. There is an inner hallway which leads through to the principal bedroom, fifth bedroom and second bathroom, providing a flexible layout to the upstairs.

Outside, the secluded south facing wraparound garden is mainly laid to lawn with a terrace area, mature trees, shrubs and flower borders, and a greenhouse. There is also a tennis court which could be reinstated by the new owners. The property enjoys undisturbed countryside views and overlooks a natural pond.

To the front, a driveway with parking for numerous cars is positioned behind wooden gates. Outbuildings include a well-maintained garage, workshop, tool shed, and an additional storage room, ideal for hobbyists, storage or could be used as an office, with the potential to create an annexe (subject to the usual planning consents). Accessed via a ladder is a loft space running from the far end of the garage above the store and workshop, making a useful storage space.
