Description
This beautifully presented detached family home offers an abundance of period features including original stone windows, exposed beams, flagstone flooring and inglenook fireplace.
A former coach house, with parts dating back to 1650, has been modernised and extended offering a wonderful family home with flexible accommodation across three floors. Although a period home the property benefits from modern conveniences such as double glazed windows and is fitted with solar panels which will run the appliances in the day saving on energy bills. The central heating is also controlled via the Nest system giving you the benefit of being able to set the heating remotely.
Located on a quiet no-through road the property is accessed through double wooden gates that open up into a large block paving parking area for several cars and the garage.
Entering through the front door brings you into a light and airy hallway, to the right is a coat / boot room with underfloor heating, washing machine, sink and space for a drier. Off the boot room is a cloakroom. Straight ahead brings you to the kitchen / dining / family room that has been extended to create a large open space filled with ample natural light coming from large windows, tiled flooring (underfloor heating to the dining area) and French doors to the patio and garden, the kitchen has a large island with breakfast bar and storage, built in large fridge, wine fridge, built in dishwasher and double oven. An arched church style door leads to the large utility / larder with built in freezer, second dishwasher and ample storage. Both worktops in the kitchen and utility room are granite. The kitchen benefits from a boiling tap and fitted water filter.
Through the kitchen is the oldest part of the house, the double aspect sung, which has original flagstone flooring, exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace with a Clear-view wood burning stove. A spiral staircase leads to the first floor and a unique curved door into the formal, again double aspect, sitting room with a stone surround fire place with wood burning stove, French doors to the garden as well as a separate area to the rear currently used as a study and a large storage cupboard. There is a large double bedroom connecting the two halves of the first floor, through this bedroom is the guest bathroom, another staircase down to the kitchen and the spacious master bedroom with open plan bathroom featuring a deep free standing bath and separate walk-in shower room. A final staircase leads to the top floor with a double bedroom on one end, family bathroom in the middle and a room currently used as an art studio but would make a good sitting / games room for older children or home office and then the final bedroom with exposed beams, built in wardrobe and large sky light windows with stunning countryside views.
Externally the property benefits from two separate garden areas, the first leads from the parking area and has a large sun trap terrace, a lawn area with raised flower bed borders with mature shrubs and flowers, the second leads from the kitchen / dining room and has a large patio for alfresco dining, a sloped lawn area and again mature shrub borders.
