## Description

Butley House stands in an elevated setting with views over the village and has well-proportioned rooms extending to over 3200 sq ft.

**Description**

The front door opens into a striking reception hallway with a vaulted ceiling, immediately setting the tone for the light-filled and well-balanced accommodation beyond. To the right, the principal sitting room is particularly impressive, featuring elegant glazed Daedalian doors, a Chesneys stone fireplace with living gas fire, and bespoke walnut alcove cabinetry. Double doors lead seamlessly through to a spacious orangery, a wonderful addition that enjoys a close connection with the gardens and provides an ideal setting for both relaxation and entertaining.

The orangery flows seamlessly into the kitchen, which forms the heart of the home. Beautifully appointed and finished in soft, pale Farrow & Ball tones, it comprises hand-crafted cabinetry topped with granite work surfaces, a Belfast sink, and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances including an American-style fridge freezer, SMEG range cooker, Miele semi-integrated dishwasher and a Bang & Olufsen sound system. A separate utility room offers additional practicality, with further sink space and plumbing for laundry appliances.

To the rear, the family room provides a more informal living space, characterised by oak flooring, exposed beams and a feature gas fire, with French doors opening onto a York stone terrace perfect for al fresco dining and entertaining. The ground floor is completed by two well-proportioned double bedrooms, with fitted furniture served by a stylish shower room fitted with Roca sanitaryware.

To the first floor, a galleried landing leads to two further bedrooms. The principal suite is a particularly appealing retreat, featuring exposed beams, far-reaching views, a generous dressing room and a well-appointed en suite bathroom. The fourth bedroom also benefits from fitted furniture, useful eaves storage and its own en suite shower room.

Externally, the property enjoys beautifully landscaped rear gardens, designed for privacy and ease of maintenance, with a York stone terrace adjoining the orangery providing an ideal setting for outdoor entertaining.
