Description
Originally a stone barn conversion in the early 1980's, Pantiles has been progressively and sympathetically extended by previous owners. The current owners commissioned building the new utility room and garage, and the cottage annex was completely refurbished in 2017 to a high standard, including roof replacement. It is now a superb property with style and character, offering privacy and flexible accommodation.
This well-appointed stone built four bedroom detached house is beautifully positioned within attractive gardens. It offers generous parking and garage, together with a separate detached two bedroom cottage (additional 847 sqft; 78.6 sqm); ideal for extended families, guests or letting, all in the heart of an attractive Rutland conservation village with nearby links to the A1.
The main house is entered through a pretty front door, framed at this time of year by roses, to an tile floored entrance hallway that leads past a cloakroom/WC to the drawing/sitting room, study and family kitchen. The ground floor is tiled throughout but for the lounge/dining area and study.
The spacious drawing/dining room offers space and elegance for entertaining. With solid light oak herringbone flooring, exposed stonework walls, a high, partly beamed ceiling and wood burning stove as a focal point, it is a wonderfully convivial room, with a dining area capable of, (as currently furnished), seating 10 comfortably. Patio doors open to the adjoining conservatory, which offers access to, and lovely views across, the south westerly orientated garden.
From the hallway, the oak herringbone flooring continues within the study, equally adaptable as a snug or play room, from which double doors also open to the garden.
The spacious and fabulously appointed family dining kitchen offers scale and impact. Triple aspect, with attractive views over the gardens to which French doors open, the kitchen is fitted with a bespoke suite of solid wood wall and base cabinetry, with accent lighting, under granite worktops. A central granite topped island acts as a focal point, whilst there are built in; induction range cooker, microwave, fridge freezer and dishwasher appliances, with a Qettle boiling tap.
Adjoining the kitchen, the utility room is kitchen-sized in its own right, offering extensive storage, work surfaces and boot room area. Doors access to front and rear gardens, as well as to the integral garage, with electric roller shutter doors to the block paved drive at the front and to the rear garden.
At first floor, the landing hallway accesses the four bedrooms and family bathroom. The principal bedroom has a wall of fitted wardrobes and en suite shower room. Similarly, the generous guest bedroom has a dressing area lobby between bedroom and en suite shower room with twin sinks. Double bedroom three and bedroom four are well placed for the modern family bathroom. All bedrooms have fitted wardrobes.
Annex Cottage: the detached stone annex cottage is currently let as an Air BnB, and offers flexible accommodation for extended family, a business or long term rental. The cottage has a light and airy feel and has a fully fitted ground floor breakfast kitchen, central sitting room and en suite double bedroom, with a second en suite double bedroom, with vaulted ceiling, at first floor level.
Outside: Approached along an initially shared driveway with the neighbouring Garden House, there is generous gravelled parking as well as a block paved area, with access to the integral garage, along with electric vehicle charging point.
