5 bedroom house

A beautifully presented five bedroom family home
in attractive landscaped gardens with paddock and outbuildings.


Description

Northlands is a charming detached five bedroom family home which dates in part from the 1930’s and has been beautifully refurbished by the current owners. The property, which enjoys lovely landscaped gardens and is set back from the road behind well screened mature hedging and electric gates, benefits from a detached English Heritage garage for two cars, several versatile outbuildings and an enclosed paddock.

The light and airy accommodation comprises an entrance hall that leads to an attractive and very well proportioned reception/sitting room with Jotul wood burning stove and French doors to a west facing terrace. Off the sitting room there is a formal dining room and a conservatory, both also having direct access to the garden via French doors.
The sleek modern kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and floor cupboards. Appliances comprise a wall mounted oven and microwave, five ring electric hob, integral dishwasher, fridge/freezer and wine cooler. Adjoining the kitchen is a useful utility room with further cupboards and space for white goods.
Completing the ground floor are two attractive bedrooms (which could be used as a study and home office) and a Jack and Jill bathroom.
On the first floor are three bedrooms together with an en suite shower room and family shower room. One of the bedrooms benefits from a south-facing balcony from where garden views can be enjoyed. The bath/shower rooms are fitted with contemporary white suites.
Northlands is approached via electric timber gates that open to a gravel drive providing parking for several cars and access to a detached Heritage double garage via roller doors.
The attractive landscaped gardens extend to three sides of the house and comprise level lawns planted with varieties of seasonal shrubs, well established trees, generous paved terraces and two well stocked ponds. There is an orchard and kitchen garden with raised beds, garden shed and to the north of this is an enclosed paddock.
