Rural Retreat - A mile off the main road, sense the serenity of the separation as you detach from the hustle and bustle, travelling along the private lane into the Gally Knight Estate, pulling up through both sets of electric double gates, served by a fully monitored intercom system allowing you to buzz visitors in and out at your convenience. Park up in the double garage.
The embodiment of chocolate box cottage in the woods appeal, Ivy Cottage stands proud in stone and slate, a most handsome home, set upon verdant grounds which include a separate paddock of just under half an acre.
Welcome Home - Serenaded by birdsong, step through from the outdoors into the main entrance hall, where tiled flooring extends underfoot, and oak stairs and doors lead off in different directions. Sense the warmth from the underfloor heating, which pervades on all three floors and also in the annexe.
Turning right, double oak doors open into a large, formal sitting room, where lattice windows present pretty views out over the gardens. Carpeted underfoot, this spacious room embraces a traditional feel, with beams overhead; tall oak skirtings and large French doors open out to the extensive stone patio and lush lawn. Perfect for the summer months, drift outdoors and soak up the sunshine, glass of wine in hand. In winter, curl up on the sofa, in front of the stylish vertical glass-fronted gas fire. Bliss.
Feast Your Eyes - Returning to the entrance hall, turn left from the front door to arrive at the family kitchen, where textured stone tiles underfoot and a Belfast sink offer a farmhouse feel in keeping with the heritage of the home. Cream cabinetry extends along the walls, providing storage above and beneath the granite countertops. Recessed within an Inglenook is a gas Aga, served by a separate LPG gas tank. Useful vegetable baskets and wine chillers are fitted within the handy central island, a sociable feature combined with the breakfast bar seating at the end, whilst an American style fridge-freezer is tucked away in the pantry recess. Storage is in abundant supply, with light pouring in through several windows. Tucked to one side of the kitchen is a rear lobby with boiler cupboard (providing ample storage) alongside a downstairs WC and access out to the large parking area and driveway ? a handy boot room entrance when returning home from a muddy walk with the dog.
Go With The Flow - Flow through from the kitchen into the open-plan dining area, where a large dining table basks in light from the French doors and bifolding doors which provide easy access out onto the walled, courtyard terrace beyond. Ideal for entertaining, picture summer soirees with a buffet table indoors and a sizzling barbecue beyond. Perfect for parties in winter too, the terrace also has a fire pit. Choose your own summer soundtrack: an integrated speaker system features in this room and several others.
A home with exceptional ease of flow, continue into the family room, an extension completed five years ago embodying a more contemporary feel.
Modern Spaces - An expansive room, large grey tiles underfoot complement the space, whilst white walls stretch up to the pitched ceiling, where Velux windows invite light inside. A log burning stove offers warmth in the wintertime. A home in constant connection with its surrounds, bifold doors connect once more to the terrace beyond, connecting with the kitchen to provide seamless flow.
Beyond the games room, emerge into a utility room, tiled underfoot and with further storage, Belfast sink and plumbing for washer-dryer. From here there is also access through to the garage and outside via a stable door to the driveway.
Bedtime Beckons - From the entrance hall, take the carpeted oak staircase up to the first-floor landing, turning left into the first bedroom; carpeted in cream underfoot, two windows draw in daylight. Across from the double bed is a corner desk, with plenty of space for wardrobes. To the rear of the room, draw back a curtain to discover a secret snug, the perfect den for any child, perfect for watching television, playing games or snuggling up with a book.
Turning left out of this bedroom a second bedroom features a wealth of fitted wardrobes, with peaceful views out over the verdant surrounds.
Relax And Refresh - Across the landing, refreshment awaits in the family bathroom, where a centrally filling bathtub with handheld shower attachment is inset with its own wall-mounted television for relaxing soaks whilst catching up on the soaps. There is also a WC and contemporary wash basin with vanity unit storage beneath.
Seek Sanctuary - Next door on the right, seek sanctuary in the master bedroom, a capacious space, carpeted in grey and awash with light. Walk-in wardrobes brimming with hanging space, shelving and drawers, to both sides of the room, ensure ample storage for all, whilst a large ensuite is the epitome of contemporary comfort.
Freshen up beneath the power shower, in this light, bright room also served by a wash basin with vanity unit storage, heated towel rail and WC.
Versatile Living - Up a second set of stairs arrive at the second floor, turning left to discover a bright bedroom, whose sloping ceiling adds a cosy cottage feel. Light pours in through a window, whilst fitted storage within the eaves offers ample storage. Step out through double doors onto the balcony and listen to the birdsong.
Also nestled on this level is a shower room, with wash basin, WC and rainfall shower, tiled to the lower walls and fitted with ample storage.
Next door a fifth bedroom awaits, light, bright and fitted once more with ample wardrobes for storage. Soak up the incredible views from the Juliet balcony.
Peaceful and secure, Ivy Cottage benefits from extensive CCTV via a Cloud and hub base, alongside a monitored alarm system. Technologically futureproofed, Cat5 cabling throughout ensures connectivity, whilst the ground source heat pump provides an income of £700 per quarter.
Work From Home - Crossing the parking area, arrive at the annexe to Ivy Cottage. Currently used as a gym with office space above, this additional accommodation offers plenty of potential to those working from home.
Step inside into the main reception room, where cabinetry and wood-toned worktops are set out to accommodate kitchen appliances should you wish to style this space as a holiday cottage or apartment for dependent relatives.
There is ample space for a fridge freezer, alongside plumbing for a washer and dryer. Above the sink, drink in the delightful views over the large, emerald lawn, neatly enclosed by mature hedging.
To the rear of the kitchen, a shower room containing wash basin and WC is found.
Flow to the front of the kitchen, which opens up into a space currently used as a gym but could serve as a living room or office.
Returning to the kitchen, take the stairs up to a bedroom-office area, with Velux window above, and double doors opening out to a Juliet balcony. Ideal accommodation for dependent relatives, older children returning from university or for use as a home office.
Garden Delights - Outdoors, the comforting embrace of rurality holds Ivy Cottage in its own perfect bubble. Adding a Mediterranean vibe, patio areas provide plenty of space in which to socialise and relax, with a tall, original wall containing a handsome archway adding character and history.
Beyond the patio lies a formal garden, perfect for sunny games of croquet in the summertime. In the autumn, harvest fruit from the trees in the orchard. When winter?s frost makes its presence felt, light the fire pit and toast marshmallows, warmed by a glass of mulled wine.
The half-acre paddock reaches back to a stream, a delight for children to splash about in and ideal for those looking to keep horses. Outbuildings include a slate roofed shed at the rear of the garage, ideal for bike storage, whilst a room at the rear of the annex is currently used as a bin store but could be used as kenneling for dogs.
