The island unit houses a dishwasher, with a breakfast bar to one side. The Fisher and Paykel appliances include two ovens with plate warming drawers underneath and a gas hob. There is space and plumbing for an American style fridge/freezer. From the open plan reception areas, there is the option to create an annexe, with office/bedroom six becoming a sitting room/kitchen, and bedroom five being the bedroom, with en suite shower room.
The first floor landing is impressive, with bi-folding doors leading to two large balconies, and the landing being large enough to provide space for a games room and sitting area. There are four double bedrooms and two shower rooms on this floor. All the bedrooms enjoy far-reaching views over the gardens, paddocks, and rolling countryside beyond. The main bathroom has a large oval bath and a wet area with rain head shower. The house benefits from double glazed windows throughout, is well insulated and features underfloor heating on the ground floor.
Gardens and grounds
The grounds extend to 9.2 acres and comprise beautifully planted and well-established gardens, several paddocks, a large pond, and ample parking for numerous vehicles/boats. The fields are well fenced and there are a number of dry-stone walls. There is the base for an outdoor pool, which remains unfinished, and which the owners have covered with a small AstroTurf football pitch. The boundaries have been completely re-fenced, and the paddocks re-seeded. There is a planted fruit orchard above the paddock, which slopes down to the adjoining woodland, with further paddocks accessed from the tracks. Most of the paddocks have a water trough connected. To the front of the house and central to the gardens, is a large and well-stocked pond.
Outbuildings
A substantial range of beautifully built barns which extend to over 8,000 sq ft, are currently used as garaging, workshops and storage barns, but could be converted to an indoor horse arena with stabling or studios. The steel frame building is clad in timber with stone low faced wall, and roller shutter doors, and the building benefits from underfloor heating via a Clean Burn waste oil burner.
