4 bedroom detached house for sale

A beautifully presented four bedroom barn-style property, sitting in around 1.5 acres, set within idyllic surroundings. *Incentives available* (subject to terms and conditions).

Description

White Bear Barn spans over 2,000 sq ft and offers elegant open plan living space. The heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen/dining and living area with bi-fold doors out to the porcelain terrace. The kitchen is fitted with bespoke eye and base level units, granite worktops and fitted appliances. Vaulted ceilings and exposed beams emphasise the barn’s character, while the mezzanine first floor adds versatility. The four well-appointed bedrooms offer ample space, with the principal suite benefiting from a luxurious en suite, whilst all others are served by a generous family bathroom, as well as a separate utility/boot room.

Outside forms a further important feature. The gated, sweeping gravel driveway, draws you down to the property’s impressive façade and into the 1.5 acres of land (STLS). The views over the surrounding meadowland are unrivalled and provide an oasis whilst only being 20 miles from London. The wrap around porcelain terrace is perfect for outdoor entertaining and to capture the views. There is also potential for further development to build an annexe/home office which offers additional flexibility.
