Savee Farm

The property was extensively refurbished throughout in 2012 by the current owners to create a striking and well-appointed property, ideally suited to busy family life and entertaining.

Approached through stone piers along a 70-metre sweeping driveway and passing the manicured gardens, gives an inviting first impression of the house. However, the wow-factor happens when entering the property into a central grand entrance hall with a curved oak staircase, porcelain tiled floor and panelled doors leading off to all principal rooms.

There are three separate and flexible reception rooms each with beautiful views. The triple aspect drawing room features a hand cut stone fireplace and the dining room is a lovely formal entertaining space, whilst the study offers custom-made furniture. The Kitchen/breakfast room is light and spacious with views over the front gardens. It has a range of both oak and painted units complemented by granite work surfaces and a central island. Integrated appliances include an Aga, Miele dishwasher, wine cooler and fridge/freezer. A utility, shower room and boot room is adjacent to the kitchen with access to the garden and creates a practical storage area.

The bedrooms are well proportioned with fitted wardrobes, each accessed from a large galleried landing with space for a study or reading area. The en-suite shower room and family bathroom have been modernised.
