Description

A great family home with large garden and easy access to Heath Mount and Haileybury Schools. A Chain-Free purchase opportunity for those wanting large south facing rooms and a peaceful environment to raise a family.

Property - Heathfield House was originally a much smaller property, virtually re-built and considerably extended 20 years ago by a reputable local builder. There is a spacious hall and thoughtfully designed ground floor layout which lends itself to entertaining but equally suited to family living, offering 3 good sized reception rooms and a study. There is double glazed leaded light windows, high corniced ceilings and solid handmade oak doors throughout the property and the dining room and drawing room have south west facing French windows looking on to a beautiful, private garden. The kitchen is fitted with solid maple units and built in appliances and has double doors to garden and a door to a laundry room.
On the first floor is an attractive landing off which is a master bedroom and large modern en-suite bathroom with separate shower stall, 4 further bedrooms (all doubles) a shower room and bathroom 3. All but one of the bedrooms overlook the rear gardens.

Outside - The gardens are a special feature of the property and extend to two thirds of an acre, they have been professionally designed to provide colour all year round and include a wide variety of spring flowers, perennials, ornamental shrubs and trees arranged around a central lawn. Backing on to the house is an extensive paved patio with pergola a deep herbaceous border and paved pathway leading to a further seating area. A Gothic Folly to the far end of the garden provides an attractive focal point, beyond lies mature Laurel, a treehouse with light and power and a timber garden store. Part of the garden has been sectioned off to provide a productive Kitchen garden with raised beds, fruit cage and Alitex heated greenhouse. There is a Bore hole which pumps water from a natural source to provides irrigation for the whole garden by way of an automatic watering system. There is rabbit proof fencing along all boundaries.
The property is approached via a 5 barred gate leading to a large gravel driveway and detached Double Garage with excellent mezzanine storage.
