Alder House is a Grade II listed thatched house that has undergone a painstaking and clever transformation to create a versatile, easy-to-run home with perfect spaces for a modern family. Blending stylish state-of-the-art designs and finishes yet retaining the very best features synonymous with period houses.
The ground floor accommodation centres around a large hall, which links the original house with the large, modern yet sympathetic extension. In the original part of the house there are three reception rooms. All have stone floors and beams, two have wood burners set in attractive fireplaces and the other has doors to the courtyard. The kitchen/breakfast room has recently been re-fitted and has integrated appliances, a pantry cupboard, a butler sink and marble worktops. There is also a bespoke breakfast area with bench seating and storage. A glazed walkway links the kitchen with the family room, an oak-framed modern addition with a vaulted ceiling, fantastic garden views, air conditioning and a modern bioethanol fireplace. There is a utility room and cloakroom.
Upstairs there are four bedrooms, all with vaulted ceilings and exposed beams. The main staircase leads to a large landing off which are three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The main bedroom has fitted cupboards and an en-suite shower. The fourth/guest bedroom is accessed via a second staircase in the sitting room.
The house has oil-fired central heating and a burglar alarm. The kitchen has been replaced within the last year and the bathrooms are all high-specification.

About this agent
t's time to shake up the way we sell and let property. People have put up with inefficiency in agency for so long because there’s been no alternative, in fact agency is often seen as a necessary evil – until now. We also believe that property shouldn’t be complicated and doesn’t need smoke and mirrors to be done well. That’s why at G&T we use common sense and just like to do things properly – we get to know you and your needs; we work hard to find the perfect target audience; and we act at the right time. It’s simple, smooth and, most importantly, it works. Property, properly.
