Set behind a set of electric gates, The Poppies is a spacious, detached family home with numerous living spaces and 6 bedrooms- four to the ground floor and two the the first. The property has a spectacular outdoor space with a garden to the rear and a further three acres to the side of the property. To the front, a loose stone driveway provides multiple parking spaces with a boundary of mature shrubs and hedges to aid the fence in privatising the front lawn space. A stone flagged path wraps around the house, granting access to the front door with opaque panels to flank its sides. Through this, the entrance porch provides convenient space for coats and boots with a tiled flooring and pendant light above. A secondary door with opaque glazed insets guides further into the house to an open-plan living-dining-kitchen area.
This living area is lit by a pendant light, has a window to front and radiator beneath. The focal point of the room is a multifuel burner set within a stone surround which continues to create an integrated bench seat to the side. The burning stove is completed with an oak mantel beam above, stone hearth and television point above.
Progressing further, the conservatory lies to the rear of the property, an area which the whole family will gravitate towards with stunning views of the garden beyond. French doors across the back grant access to this whilst the room is completed with a tiled flooring, a pendant light and radiator.
The formal dining area holds the same tiling, a window to rear and wiring for three pendant lights. Wrapping around into the kitchen space, an extensive set of cream wall and base units topped with beechwood counters and a neutrally tiled splashback are revealed. The units include a double stacked oven and grill, space for a range style oven and a granite one-and-a-half bowl sink unit with swan neck spring style tap and etched drainer to side. The central island provides further storage and holds a five-point gas hob. To the opposite end, there is a second area for informal dining which is lit by two track lights and a window to front, has a television point to the side and is warmed by a radiator.
An oak door with glazed insets leads through to the utility room. The utility also has tiled flooring, a pendant light, radiator and is fitted with white base units with granite tops to include space for an automatic washing machine, venting for a tumble dryer and space for a further freezer or refrigerator. A stainless-steel single drainer sink unit with swan neck mixer tap and etched drainer to the side exists in front of a window to overlook the rear garden. Access to the ground floor w.c. is also permitted from this room which is completed with a close coupled w.c. and opaque window to side.
Continuing through, two further rooms exist beyond. One room is fitted with white base units with beech wood tops and wardrobes to the side. This has a radiator and is illuminated by two fluorescent lights and two windows to the side. To the rear of the property a storage room has the same lighting, access to the rear, tiled flooring and fitted shelves. It also houses the water tank and boiler.
The second reception room is a spacious and bright area with a large window to side offering stunning rural views. French doors also allow access to the rear with both wall and pendant lights to illuminate the area. The room is warmed by both a radiator and the multifuel burner which sits on a stone hearth, is encompassed by a brick surround and has an oak mantle and television point above.
A hallway warmed by a radiator and aided with wall lights leads through to the ground level bedrooms.
Bedroom one is a spacious, dual aspect, double room with a window both to the front and to the side. It is warmed with a radiator, lit by a pendant light and has a television point to the far wall. An en suite exists to the side which is accessed through bi-folding doors and has a three-piece suite to include: a vanity set wash hand basin with swan neck mixer tap, a close coupled w.c., cubicle shower with glazed sliding doors and chrome towel rail. It is warmed by a radiator and has a pendant light above.
Bedrooms two and five are both double rooms, with windows to the rear and front respectively, a radiator each and lit by a pendant light. Bedroom six is currently used as a dressing room with fitted rails to the walls, a window to the rear, radiator and pendant light.
The fully tiled family bathroom has an opaque window to rear, pendant light, radiator and three-piece suite comprising of an integrated bath, close coupled w.c. and stand-alone wash hand basin with monobloc tap with a towel rail to the side.
Access to the first floor is granted by stairs in the first reception room. This leads to two further bedrooms, the first of which is a good-sized room, lending itself to multiple possibilities as a playroom, a further bedroom or a snug room with a Velux and Dorma window to the front. The second room is currently used as a bedroom with space for a double bed, a Velux window, Dorma window to the front and pendant light above. This room is also equipped with a radiator and further access to the attic which has the potential to be converted.
The rear garden holds an extensive lawn area which is dotted with slate chips and a stone path to allow access to the rear gate. The Poppies also owns three acres of land which unfolds to the side of the property.
