Property description

House

Ground floor

The main entrance opens into a very large reception hall (28 sq m) with tiled floor and exposed stone wall. To the rear of the hall a door opens to a good size laundry / utility room (12 sq m). To the right of the hall a door opens to a corridor with tiled floor and exposed beam ceiling.

To the rear of this corridor a door opens to an attractive kitchen (23 sq m) with tiled floor, exposed beam ceiling, limestone fireplace and a range of fitted units. To the left of the kitchen a door opens to a comfortable sitting room (23 sq m) with wooden floor and marble fireplace. To the side of this sitting room a door opens to a corridor with a door to the front garden.

Also off the corridor from the main reception hall is a room (17 sq m) with wooden floor and fireplace. This room borrows light from the kitchen and would make a good office / TV room or overflow bedroom. To the end of the corridor are a bathroom (bath, shower and washbasin) and a separate WC.

To the left of the main reception hall a door opens to a huge living room (60 sq m) with wooden floor, exposed beam ceiling and a free-standing wood-burning stove.

First floor

A staircase from the corridor rises to the master bedroom (22 sq m) with ensuite bathroom (bath, wash-basin and WC), off which is a private sitting room (17 sq m).

A second staircase rises from the living room to a first floor landing, off which are four bedrooms (20 sq m, 19 sq m, 15 sq m and 13 sq m). Each of these bedrooms has its own ensuite shower room (shower, wash-basin and WC).

To the rear of the first floor landing a few steps lead to another corridor, off which are two more bedrooms (18 sq m and 18 sq m) as well as a shower room (shower, wash-basin and WC).

Exterior

To the rear of the house is a courtyard garden, mainly laid to gravel and bounded on two sides by a pretty stream. To the rear of the garden is the swimming pool, behind which is a spacious pool house (40 sq m) with sitting area and kitchen area. To one side (attached to the house) is a garage above which is an attic /storage area (also accessible from the master suite's sitting room).

To the other side of the courtyard is stone barn and just over the stream is a large, more modern barn.

To the front of the house is the front garden (mainly left to lawn) and just over the lane is another area of garden (mainly left to lawn with a number of trees.

This is a large property with plenty of living space in a rural setting. Given the number of bedrooms it could make a great B&B.
