5 bedroom house

Set on the beautiful rural fringes of Mayfield down a quiet country lane, the cottage is surrounded by stunning countryside and has a marvellous balance of character features and modern technology. There is zoned under-floor heating throughout the ground floor with mellow wood flooring in the hallway and main reception rooms and porcelain tiles in the marvellous kitchen/dining/living room. This space takes full advantage of the countryside vistas with wide expanses of black framed tall windows and French doors out to the terrace. With bespoke Shaker style cabinetry by Mackintosh Savoy under marble worktops and with a range of integrated Siemens appliances and a Quooker hot and filtered cold water tap, the kitchen décor is complimented by accents of copper in the taps and light fittings, a truly wonderful space for relaxed entertaining.

The double aspect sitting room also has French doors out to the garden and a pretty log-burner in the open fireplace and there is an additional reception room with doors out which is an incredibly versatile area. It can be a downstairs bedroom if required as it has an excellent en-suite shower room but would work equally well as a therapy/treatment room, work from home space or as a snug/family room.

Upstairs the pretty, angled ceilings on the galleried landing and two of the bedrooms add to the country feel whilst the two larger bedrooms at each end of the house have high vaulted ceilings and exposed beams.

The principal bedroom is most attractive with French doors and a Juliet balcony making the most of the views out and a good en-suite wet room. The guest bedroom also has a large en-suite shower room and the two further bedrooms are well-served by a pretty bathroom with free-standing bath. The sanitary-ware throughout is excellent quality and is a wonderful combination of traditional and contemporary styles, befitting of the general high standard of finish and style of the house.
Outside

Approached by a wide block-paved driveway with ample parking for several vehicles, there is a detached garage with a useful home office and a stunning pergola off the kitchen area over the expansive entertaining terrace. The decked and paved terrace wraps around the side and rear of the house, bordered by flat areas of lawn and there is neat, boxed planting in the front gravelled section. A pretty covered walkway over a bridge leads through to the side paddock – a haven for wildlife with established fruit trees, shrubs and hedging and a bluebell wood. From every aspect of the house and garden, there are magnificent views over the surrounding countryside, a truly peaceful idyll.
