Character and Charm
A main reception hall situated in the centre of the home and accessed from the drive and gardens, provides additional entertaining space, with magnificent York flagstone flooring. From the reception hall you’ll find a stepped entrance to a large, elegant drawing room. Once a former barn, this expansive room is drenched in daylight from the dual-aspect windows and French doors that lead to a secluded courtyard. Adorned with a grand stone mantelpiece, hear the crackle of logs from the wood-burner flanked by built-in cabinetry to either side; it's the perfect setting for entertaining guests and relishing the warm ambience of this light-filled space.
Entertaining Haven
The character and charm continues into the heart of the home with the generously proportioned family kitchen. With high ceiling, exposed stonework and beams, the stone and lead mullion windows with shutters bring warmth and a chic country charm. A sturdy inset beam frames the gas two-oven AGA, supplemented by a conventional oven and induction hob, a double Belfast sink, and granite worktops creating a culinary haven for family gatherings. Ample family seating enhances the functionality of this space, inviting casual dining and socialising. To keep your kitchen chore and clutter free, discover a practical utility room that’s perfect for returning home after a stroll around the village and neighbouring countryside with muddy boots and paws. A guest cloakroom is also located on the ground floor.
Resplendent Receptions
The formal and atmospheric dining room beckons with its open fireplace, shuttered windows, original cabinetry, and a seamless connection to the well-appointed kitchen, perfect for hosting family celebrations and get-togethers. Braddan House has a sociable and family-friendly flow with another door from the dining room leading to the hallway and staircase at the front of the home. Next, an inviting family room awaits, complete with built-in shelving and cupboards, a charming log burner, and an elegant stone mantlepiece, creating a perfect spot for relaxation. A window seat beneath the stone and lead mullion windows with shutters completes this useful snug.
Sweet Dreams
As you ascend the beautiful staircase to the second floor, a window at the top peeps down offering a glimpse of the lush rear garden, setting the tone for the serene ambience that awaits.
