About this property

Occupying a spectacular elevated position and set within an outstanding plot that extends to circa 0.45 of an acre. The home is perfectly placed to enjoy its outstanding views across the valley below and rolling countryside beyond.

Offered to the market for the first time since its construction some 55 years ago, this individually designed and built home has been comprehensively extended and meticulously maintained yet still offers ample scope for further re-imagination, extension or development (STPP).
The elevated position means the home is filled with natural light and boasts accommodation that is wonderfully versatile. The accommodation is well balanced and deceptively spacious throughout. The fluid layout unfolds from a wonderful central hallway. The triple aspect sitting room is a room of particular note. The substantial room is split into two key areas, defined by a few steps. There is a cosy seating area orientated around the feature fireplace. Down the steps, there is a further seating or dining area with double patio doors opening out to the front gardens and perfectly framing the view beyond. The kitchen is to the rear and is fitted with a stylish Harwoods German design kitchen. The kitchen is well appointed with ample wall and base units under swathes of granite work surfaces, integrated double oven and hob, Fisher Paykel dishwasher and a breakfast bar. In addition, there is space for a sizeable everyday dining table. Beyond, the conservatory provides a wonderful additional reception space. Completing the ground floor accommodation are two generous double bedroom with built in wardrobes, a study or single bedroom and a family bathroom. On the first floor there is another double bedroom.

This hugely versatile space in addition offers scope going forward (STPP). The decorative formal garden wraps around the home and is laid to lawn with contoured and pretty floral beds and borders.
