5 bedroom character property for sale

If you are looking for a spacious family home that has an abundance of character, charm and individuality, then look no further as this stunning property could be the one you have been waiting for. The current vendors have completely transformed the property through the clever use of glass and bespoke handcrafted timber fixtures, which includes an impressive oak staircase that is unlike anything else currently on the market. The attention to detail and craftmanship is quite extraordinary and can only be fully appreciated on viewing.

Upon entering through the main entrance you are greeted by a lovely vaulted ceiling with exposed timber beams and large windows with shutters to either side. Behind the impressive staircase you will find the open plan kitchen/diner and an extremely light inner hallway leading to the utility area. The kitchen has a substantial central island that doubles up as a breakfast bar, whilst a undercounter fridge and a wine cooler can be found below. There is a solid bamboo worktop that is extremely hard wearing and has a recessed sink at its centre. There is an electric Rangemaster cooker with a five-ring induction hob over, an extremely useful pantry cupboard with power and a media wall on the right hand side. The dining area has space for a good sized table with chairs and boasts a 450 year old tree section that has been cleverly incorporated into the wall to create a stunning feature.

The hallway leading to the utility room has been fitted with stone tiles and has a full wall of glass to one side that not only allows an abundance of natural light to enter but provides access to the stunning low maintenance courtyard with a bespoke water feature at its centre. Within the courtyard you will also find a high yielding fig tree. The utility room is large with a solid worktop that has space below for white goods. A door from this area provides access to the integral double garage.

Moving back into the dining area you will see a door that opens into the first of two reception rooms. The first is the main living room which has log burner that sits on stone hearth at its centre, whilst double doors open to the courtyard. The second reception room also has a log burner and can be used as part of the main house or as the living room to the annex. The annex’s kitchen has been fitted with an L shaped worktop, recessed sink, two ring electric hob, a single oven and an undercounter fridge. A good sized bedroom and shower room complete the ground floor.

To the first floor you will find four double bedrooms, two of which have built in storage and Velux roof lights. Another has been fully fitted out as a walk in wardrobe but could be reverted back to a bedroom. The master bedroom is impressive with exposed timber beams, dual aspect windows and a glass wet room comprising shower with rainfall shower head, hand basin with storage below and a low level w/c.

Externally the rear garden is large with a lovely mixture of mature trees, flowers and shrubs. If you like fruit then you will not be disappointed as there are mulberries, sloes, raspberries, gooseberries and crab apples. There are a number of specimin trees, inclduing a well established Mulberry.  There is a newly laid gravelled area to one side which provides a lovely entertaining space and benefits from two brick built stores. There is a good size gravelled drive to the front which is enclosed by timber gates and a mature hedge.

In addition there are solar panels that are owned by the property and a treatment plant that is shared between this property and next door.
