Immaculately presented Grade II listed country home offering versatile accommodation, set within beautiful gardens and rural views.
Description
Dales is an impressive Grade II listed country home, and whilst the listing suggests the house dates from the 16th century, local historians report the house to date back as far as 1380-1440 with a major rebuild in 1500s. The house has been extended by the current owner and is ideal for entertaining and family living, with the versatile and beautifully presented accommodation combining character features with modern embellishments. Salient points include bespoke kitchen by Chambers and bathroom suites, multi-pane sash windows, exposed timbers and wooden floors, column radiators, feature fireplaces, thumb latch doors, vaulted ceilings and skylights. Also of particular note are the established and immaculate gardens together with ample parking and a large garage. In total the plot amounts to about 0.4 of an acre.
The principal reception rooms comprise a well-proportioned, double aspect sitting room with a charming inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove, a formal dining room with a delightful bay window and a feature fireplace and a versatile reception hall, with access to the cellar.
The bespoke kitchen/breakfast room is equipped with a comprehensive range of solid walnut wall and base units by Chambers with integral appliances by Bosch and Miele. The breakfast area has French doors to the rear terrace and adjoins the utility room and study/bedroom, also benefitting from French doors to the rear.
Arranged over the first floor are three double bedrooms, one with a dressing area which has access to the attic. There are two stylish bathrooms by Albion Bath Co. featuring roll top baths, one of which has a shower over.
On the second floor is a further bedroom with built-in wardrobes and impressive views over the adjoining farmland. This room is currently being used as a home office.
Dales is approached via a gravel driveway providing ample off road parking and leading to the large detached garage.
The immaculate front and rear gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with well stocked beds and a variety of deciduous and evergreen trees, providing year round colour and interest.
A paved terrace spans the rear of the property providing a delightful al fresco entertaining area.
