From the moment that you turn into the driveway you have the impression that you are entering into somewhere very special.
Continue through the brick pillared wrought iron gates and the formal garden opens before you and you first see the chocolate box house that takes pride of place.
Built in the 1950’s Red Chimneys has been extensively modernised by the current owners and it is now serviced by a zonal controlled oil-fired central heating system as well as separately controlled reverse cycle heating/air-conditioning in the kitchen, lounge, main and second bedrooms. There is also underfloor heating in the kitchen/ dining room and two bathrooms, including double glazed windows throughout and fully renovated kitchen and bathrooms. The house is constructed of rendered elevations under a thatched roof, which was last ridged in 2015.
The accommodation is beautifully presented and has a very attractive kitchen/dining room, designed by Ashgrove Kitchens, with bespoke units, an electric AGA within the central island, a large pantry and separate laundry area.
There is a spacious sitting room with windows and doors overlooking the gardens, a further dining room also with French doors opening onto the sun terrace. A study and ground floor W.C complete the ground floor accommodation.
The first floor bedrooms are well proportioned with two spacious en-suite double bedrooms at opposite ends of the landing and two further bedrooms, a shower room and separate W.C.
There are two distinct gardens, the top garden which has a formal layout and the bottom landscaped garden each of approximately one acre in size. Both the house and gardens have an innate air of tranquillity, a warmness that is both pleasant and relaxing.
The formal gardens are well established, south facing and mainly large areas of level lawn, interspersed with a great variety of trees and well-established borders. Nestled within the formal gardens is a secluded area, known as the Japanese garden with specimen trees and a seating area, offering peace and tranquility.
At the front of the house is a paved sun terrace with a garden pond. There is also a second terrace to the east with a jacuzzi and summer house used as a gym. There are many areas in the grounds to enjoy the beautiful views and outlook over the surrounding countryside.
Wooden gates and a further driveway provide access to an area of natural wildflower and copse with a meandering gravel pathway and several fruit trees. A further fenced area incorporates a productive kitchen garden with vegetable beds and a large insulated workshop together with a greenhouse with a mature grape vine. There is also a composting area and three further timber sheds.
Within the grounds, there is a converted detached office, with a large reception space and bi-folding doors opening into the gardens. There is a separate study area, a WC and loft storage. The building lends itself to a number of uses, such as a studio, hobby room or ancillary accommodation, subject to the necessary planning consents.
