The old stone gate pillars remain at the entrance way of this handsome, Victorian former gentleman's residence which stands within grounds of approximately an acre. The generously sized accommodation is set over three floors, has been refurbished to an exacting standard and includes four reception rooms, five bedrooms, en suite to the master bedroom, family bathroom plus shower room, a superbly appointed living-dining-kitchen with utility, cloakroom and boot room off. The pebble driveway provides parking for numerous cars and leads to a detached double garage with workshop area and to the rear is a detached garden room/gymnasium alongside a raised decked area overlooking the rear gardens and surrounding farmland.
Sandstone steps rise to the sturdy timber panelled front door with fanlight over and gives way to the original-tiled-floor entrance porch sheltering the inner glazed door. A fine example of generous Victorian architecture throughout, the hall has mouldings and corbels to the high ceiling, deep skirting boards, panelled doors and casings, and a carved spindle staircase rising and turning to the first floor with a door to the wine cellar beneath. The attractive engineered oak herringbone-patterned flooring continues from here into the living-dining-kitchen and rooms beyond and burnished-bronze traditional-style radiators warm the rooms throughout.
The very spacious dual aspect principal lounge has a picture window to the front, a window to the side and a central pendant light. The focal point of this elegant room is the composite stone fire surround with softly patterned tiled hearth and inset Firefox log burning stove whilst fitted display shelves sit to one side and there is a wall-inset display niche.
On the opposite side of the hall is the sitting room which also boasts a picture window overlooking the front garden and has a central pendant light. A sleek, oak fire surround with quartz ingle and hearth encapsulates a further log burning stove to create a welcoming family hub and a television point is positioned to the side.
To the rear of the property is the dual aspect family room; a further spacious room with recessed downlighting and an ingle set log burning stove. Fitted book and display shelves line one wall and create excellent toy storage space and there is also a wall mounted television point.
The extended living-dining-kitchen to the rear has bi-folding doors and a panel window to the rear elevation. Creating an impact, the excellent range of two-tone painted cabinets and drawers in Hague blue and ivory with stainless steel handles have white granite worktops and the area is lit by recessed downlighting with three pendant lights over the peninsula breakfast bar for evening ambience. There is an inset sink unit with swan-neck mixer tap and the peninsula has an integrated Neff five-ring induction hob with down-draft extractor fan and a bank of Neff ovens and a coffee maker close-by. Further integrated appliances include full-height fridge and freezer, a Hotpoint automatic dishwasher and a wine-chiller. Beyond the kitchen area, there is more than ample room for a dining or lounge suites – or both.
Additional white goods can be found in the separate utility room which has further kitchen complementary units, an integrated Hotpoint washing machine and tumble dryer and an inset sink unit beneath an opaque side window. A door opens to the cloakroom with a contemporary two-piece white suite and a chrome ladder style heated towel rail.
The adjacent boot room is also fitted with kitchen complementary units to two walls plus a coat rack and bench, giving space for shoe shelves and housing the hot water tank and the central heating boiler. There is a window and a door to the garden.
Also, off the kitchen, a small quiet retreat to the west wing has a vaulted ceiling, wall lights and a bay window to sit beside at the end of the day, glass in hand and watch the sun go down.
Natural light streams through the lengthy window at the half landing of the oak and painted spindle staircase rising to the first-floor with a further window to the front, a pendant light and recessed downlights. There is a study area beneath the staircase which rises to the second floor.
The generously sized, dual aspect master bedroom has windows to front and side and a pendant light. Fitted wardrobes line one wall and have a matching dressing table and drawer banks. The en suite is fully tiled in grey marble effect porcelain forming the backdrop to the four-piece white luxury suite of stand-alone bathtub with stand-pipe tap and hand shower, enclosed glass shower cubicle, vanity cabinet-set wash hand basin with illuminated mirror over, and a wall-mounted w.c. In addition, there is an opaque rear window, recessed downlights, a built-in linen cupboard, extractor fan and a chrome ladder-style heated towel rail.
Bedroom two is a dual aspect and spacious double room with windows to front and side, a pendant light and fitted wardrobes and drawers to one wall. Bedroom three is a further spacious double room with wall lights and overlooking the rear garden.
These two bedrooms are served by the shower-room with tiling and wall panels to all splash areas of the white three-piece suite comprising large cubicle with sliding door and Aqualisa unit, wall-mounted vanity set wash hand basin with side console, and a wall-mounted w.c. There is also an opaque rear window, recessed downlighting, vinyl flooring, a linen cupboard and a heated towel rail.
The second floor has two double bedrooms both with recessed downlights, large Velux windows to the rear and fitted wardrobes and drawer banks to the eaves space.
These rooms share a central shower room comprising a large wall-panelled cubicle, a vanity-set wash hand basin with toiletries cabinet over, and close coupled w.c.
The gravelled driveway provides parking for numerous cars and leads to a detached double garage with workshop area, up and over door, power and light. A mature shrub border to the front gives privacy and the front lawn garden is edged by box hedging and has two yew trees to the sides.
A low-level wrought iron gate opens to the secluded, fence enclosed, rear garden with a paved area giving way to the detached cedar-clad garden room, also with power and light, which is currently used as a gymnasium. To the rear elevation is a raised composite-decked sun terrace with armoured power points and canopy lighting, providing a fabulous al fresco dining area which overlooks the extensive lawn garden with deep landscaped shrub and herbaceous borders giving year-round colour and form. A path leads to the bark-chipped “secret garden” play area and a further path gives way to a second play area dominated by an old oak tree and is securely fenced.
