An absolutely stunning and versatile and detached steading, with garage, expansive grounds extending to about 2.7 acres surrounded by wonderful countryside.
Description
Converted in 2008, this T shaped property of stone and slate pitch roof construction offers spectacular space with good ceiling height. Most of the internal doors are oak finish with chrome handles. There are two pairs of sliding pocket doors at either end of the dining room. Flooring is mostly oak in the reception rooms, slate tiled flooring in the kitchen/family room and a combination of hard flooring and tiling in other living areas. The bedrooms are finished in neutral shades with self coloured carpets giving the air of tranquility. Most of the windows offer wonderful views and natural light with the sitting room finished with window shutters. The very stylish and contemporary interior blends perfectly with the period exterior. Beautifully decorated and presented enabling the purchaser to move in and enjoy the fabulous surroundings.
A gravelled courtyard provides access to the reception hallway with two storage cupboards and further external door with garden access. From here a passage leads round to the fully fitted modern dining kitchen which includes a NEFF double oven and hob with extractor, SMEG integrated dishwasher and a composite black 1.5 bowl sink. Some of the wall units have frosted glass fronted display cabinets, complemented by gloss finish worksurfaces and under counter lighting. The centrepiece is an island around which is the open plan family room. Dual aspect windows and glazed doors lead onto the decking area of the front and courtyard at the rear. Informal and casual this wonderful space really is the heart of the home. The spacious and elegant sitting room has large windows making the most of the wonderful views, vaulted beamed ceiling, a circular wood burning stove installed in October 2020 and a storage cupboard. At either end of the room sliding pocket doors allow for the dining room to be a more formal enclosed space. An inner hall houses a cloakroom with WC and wash hand basin. For everyday domestic tasks there is a utility room fitted with wall and floor units along with plumbing for an automatic washing machine and space for a tumble dryer. A cupboard houses the Warmflo boiler and a Santon Premier Plus hot water tank. Opposite the utility room is a study with a window providing great views. The passageway also leads back to two spacious ground floor bedrooms. One is currently used as a games room. The other is utilised as a gym complete with mirrored wall and both have hanging and shelved cupboards. These rooms are serviced by the partially tiled family bathroom with a double end bath, pedestal washbasin, WC and separate over sized shower curved enclosure. There are aqua panel wall boards and a useful airing cupboard. Conveniently placed at ground floor level is a guest bedroom with a full height window to the garden making the most of the views, a hanging and fitted cupboard and an en suite shower room with aqua panel wall boards, wash basin and a WC. A wide carpeted staircase with hardwood spindles and balustrades leads up to the landing where there are two large Velux windows allowing good natural light to enjoy this space as a study/reading area. There are four bedrooms in total on this level, one of which is currently used a ladies powder room. The principal bedroom suite is superb with a hanging and shelved wardrobe and a door to a dressing room with plentiful wardrobe space. The en suite bathroom has a double end bath surround, pedestal washbasin and a separate over sized shower enclosure, WC and heated mirror. Two further generous bedroom suites also have the benefit of dressing rooms and large en suite facilities. Separating these two rooms is a casual living space ideal for home working, or as a snug or television room.
The property lies in a wonderful rural setting. At the entrance to the property are a pair of ornamental metal gates hung on stone faced pillars. There is a gravelled driveway through the grounds bordered by stone boulders and ample parking for numerous vehicles. Alongside the south wing is a stone faced retaining wall. The majority of the house and grounds are bounded by a mix of fencing. Providing access into the paddock is a large gravel area surrounded by conifers which is a fantastic opportunity to create a further relaxation alfresco area. To the side of the house, outside the kitchen is an area of decking with a lovely sitting out area.
The garage has an electric up and over Hormann insulated sectional garage door installed in November 2021 and is fitted with power, light and water.
