LITTLE CLARKS is a truly outstanding detached
country home of immense charm and character situated in this delightful setting and enjoying a slightly elevated location with distant rural views all around. Whilst not Listed, the property does contain many of the lovely features associated with a building of this age with some impressive fireplaces, exposed beams and timbers and old timber floorboards which sit alongside modern oak flooring perfectly. In recent times, the property has been improved and considerably extended by the current owners, enhancing what was already a beautifully proportioned and well balanced living accommodation, helping to create something which really is rather special with stylish and well appointed living accommodation throughout.

The front door leads into an entrance hallway opening to an attractive snug area which sits centrally to the property and features an exposed brick fireplace with stove, attractive tiled flooring, exposed timbers and glazed double doors opening to the rear. The impressive drawing room features windows on two sides drawing in natural light, along with glazed double doors opening to outside, a lovely brick fireplace with fitted alcove cupboards and shelving either side, oak
flooring, exposed ceiling timbers and bookshelving fitted along one wall. The kitchen/family room is a truly outstanding feature of this property incorporating cooking and sitting/dining space, perfect for entertaining. The kitchen features a semi-vaulted ceiling, part-glazed bi-folding doors
opening to outside with further windows and glazed double doors opening to the rear, all of which draw in extensive amounts of natural light creating a bright and airy interior space. The kitchen itself is beautifully appointed with quartz worktops with matching central island, an extensive range of bespoke storage cupboards complemented by a large pantry and a range of integrated appliances including fridge-freezer, Aga and wine cooling fridge. The utility room to one side provides the perfect laundry room with wooden worktops, sink unit, storage cupboards and appliance space. From the kitchen, a rear hallway has a door opening to the outside and attractively appointed cloakroom with twin wash hand basins with fitted cupboards below. Beyond the rear hall sits the home office/study which provides ideal space for those who work from home, having good separation from the main accommodation. From the kitchen/family room a door leads to a further reception room which could serve a variety of purposes,
having a lovely aspect to the side and rear looking over gardens and with glazed double doors opening to outside.

Upstairs, the wide landing has a bank of windows looking out to the front which really do provide quite stunning views across surrounding countryside and gives access to the six bedrooms, all of which look out to the rear of the property enjoying views across the gardens and over surrounding countryside once again. The master bedroom features a wall of fitted wardrobes and its own en suite
shower room which is in addition to a further separate shower room and family bathroom.

To the front, an extensive gravelled driveway provides off-street parking for numerous vehicles set behind a mature low hedge. The rear gardens are laid predominantly to lawn and feature a range of mature trees, shrubs and plants creating a good natural enclosure. There is a large paved terrace adjoining the
rear of the property which extends along one side bordered by a low brick retaining wall and providing perfect space for outside entertaining. A vegetable garden is placed to one side along with an outdoor swimming pool bordered by an attractive paved terrace
and with a superb pool house which incorporates a shower room and could be used for a variety of purposes looking over the pool itself and to gardens beyond, creating another superb feature of this beautiful home. A further garden area sits beyond a bridleway which is again laid to lawn, enclosed by a natural border and with vehicular access which leads to a detached double garage building with adjoining room at the rear. In addition, there are a group of solar panels set to one corner.
