Delightful detached property of character in an idyllic setting, with established gardens and grounds of about 3.8 acres.
Description
The Nuttery is a most attractive property believed to date from the 1930’s and set in lovely gardens well set back from the lane at the end of a long private driveway. The well-presented accommodation is arranged over two floors and offers an excellent mix of traditional character with modern embellishments, ideal for both formal entertaining and family living. Also of note are the delightful gardens and grounds which provide a secluded setting with a pleasant rural outlook.
The principal reception rooms are all south facing and comprise a bright and spacious dual aspect sitting room with a generous fireplace and wood flooring, an adjoining morning room, with stairs rising to the first floor and wood flooring, and a dining room. Both the dining room and morning room have direct access to the gardens.
The charming kitchen/breakfast room is well-equipped with a range of painted wooden wall and base units with granite work surfaces over, integral appliances and a Range cooker.
A useful utility room with sink, further storage and outside access, together with a cloakroom, complete the ground floor.
Arranged over the first floor is the principal bedroom with a fireplace, built-in cupboards and a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden.
Three further bedrooms, two with built-in storage cupboards and a shower room complete the accommodation.
The property is excellently positioned within its grounds, being well set back from the lane. A five bar gate leads via a long gravel driveway to the front of the property where there is an attached garage and a parking area. The driveway is flanked with a row of beautifully maintained cobnut trees to both sides, with open paddocks beyond providing a delightful backdrop.
The cottage gardens are a delightful feature and are situated to the south and west of the property, comprising areas of lawn, with established and well maintained shrubs and flowering borders, pathways and a terrace for al fresco dining, and in part surrounded by a privet hedge providing shelter.
There is a selection of outbuildings: a barn, stabling and a generous detached storeroom, all of which have potential for alternative uses, subject to the necessary planning consents.
The remainder of the land consists of open paddocks and mature woodland. The boundaries are enclosed by mature trees and hedging providing a high degree of privacy and seclusion. In total the grounds amount to about 3.8 acres.
