4 bedroom detached house for sale

Modern detached house with superb elevated countryside views

Description

Robinswood enjoys an elevated position on the edge of the picturesque and highly regarded village of Aldbury and enjoys a plot of about 0.38 acres, including a section of woodland to the rear and backs onto the Ashridge Estate, which extends to over 5000 acres and includes the largest area of woodland managed by the National Trust with over 30 miles of trails and paths available for walking.

The house is presented in excellent decorative order throughout and is designed to make the most of it's panoramic south westerly facing aspect, with extensively glazed windows designed to frame the most wonderful far reaching countryside views and a balcony off the main living room to enjoy the sunset.

A central hallway gives access to the principal reception rooms as well as the staircase to first floor and guest cloakroom. At the front of the house there are a dual aspect sitting room with picture window and the main living space with French doors to a balcony with glass balustrade. Behind the living room, a semi open plan dining area leads through to a stylish kitchen breakfast room with peninsular breakfast bar and a separate utility room. There is a study quietly located to the rear of the sitting room.

On the first floor there are four good size bedrooms, the largest two of which are front facing, with picture windows to maximise the view and both with en suite bath or shower rooms. The two remaining bedrooms share the use of the family bathroom.

The property is approached by a sweeping driveway that leads up to the integral garage and affords parking for multiple vehicles. Steps lead up to the front garden and entrance door. To the rear there is access from the kitchen to a patio area and the garden is tiered with steps leading up past flower beds and a lawn up to a large raised decked area that affords even more elevated views over the roof of the house. Beyond this is a section of private woodland that abuts the Ashridge Estate.
