Description
Built originally of Cotswold stone with later brick additions, the house dates to circa 17th Century. Extending to over 4,000 square feet, the accommodation is laid out over two floors with great proportions (and good ceiling heights), and with further scope for create more bedrooms and bathrooms in the unconverted attic space, subject to the necessary consents.
The property has been under the same ownership since 2014, during which time it has been modernised and greatly improved to create a comfortable and flexible family home. It retains enhanced period features that include inglenook fireplaces (both fitted with wood burners), flagstones, exposed brick, stone and beams.
The ground floor rooms flow from the reception hall to a study, on to a large dining room in the middle of the house, through to a sitting room and on to the kitchen/breakfast room and wonderful garden room which as the name suggests offers a delightful overview of the gardens (over a third of an acre in size) that the home enjoys.
The kitchen has undertaken a recent refurbishment and enjoys a modern finish with granite work surfaces, integrated appliances and finished with a Karndean floor. Completing the ground floor accommodation is the formal entrance hall with flagstone flooring, a shower room, utility room and rear lobby which in turns gives access to the property cellar and stairwell to the upper levels.
Upstairs, there is a very generous master bedroom with a dressing room and en-suite bathroom with separate shower and three further generous comfortable double rooms. Most have double aspect windows enjoying open views of the garden or the village. There is also a playroom, family bathroom and separate shower room on the first floor. Returning to the stairwell, a further flight of stairs leads upwards to the property's roof space which is a wonderful, open space and, should one wish, we feel (subject to obtaining the relevant consents and completion of a bat survey) there is the ability to add at least a further two bedrooms and additional bathroom.
The Annexe – Opposite the house and totally independent, the two storey barn could be used as a home office or ancillary accommodation to the house. Having recently undergone an extensive renovation, the space is a delight with the ground floor offering an open plan kitchen/living space and a door leading to bathroom facilities (toilet and sink), and an open plan first floor vaulted up to the eaves, with windows overlooking the home's garden.
To the front of the house, there is plenty of parking available on the driveway which leads to a double garage with light and power, which could also possibly lend itself to further development (subject to the necessary consents). The delightful gardens then wrap around the south and west elevation of the house being enclosed and private.
Services: Oil fired central heating in the house. Electric heaters in the annexe. Mains water, electricity and waste. Super-fast fibre broadband. Note: The oil tank is currently not building regulation compliant and quotes have been obtained to have it re-sited and replaced.
