Constructed of brick with render this house was rebuilt 5 years ago by the owner with no expense spared. The property consists of 4/5 bedrooms.

This beautiful minimalistic detached property offers the discerning purchaser the opportunity to acquire a fabulous family home in a delightful countryside location, yet within easy reach of local amenities and transport links.

On entering the property, you are welcomed by a double height hallway with open tred stairs and a glass balustrade allowing light to flow right through the open plan ground floor living space, consisting of kitchen/diner, living room and utility room. Also, on the slightly lowered ground floor there is a cinema room with full bi-fold doors opening onto the patio and views of the large garden. There is also a WC and a large bedroom suite above which boasts dramatic views of the countryside with WC and shower. The upstairs room is fully independent of the main house and can only be accessed by the stairs below making it a perfect independent but attached guest suite.

To the main house first floor there are 3/4 bedrooms, a Jack & Jill en-suite and a family bathroom.
The two bedrooms at the front of the house have a staircase in each room taking you up to the attic rooms. Both attic rooms have reaching views on the countryside. One of the attic rooms has a walk on glass floor looking down at the main entrance hallway.

The property benefits from double glazing and underfloor heating to the main living space. A gas fired central heating has been installed and the property is serviced by a septic tank.

The property is approached through an electrically operated sliding gate to a large Tarmacadam driveway with ample parking for multiple cars with 2 car charging points.
