A Truly EXCEPTIONAL FAMILY HOME, Extensively REMODELLED TO AN INCREDIBLE STANDARD, Beautiful Grounds CLOSE TO 1 ACRE, 5 Bedrooms & 3 Bath/Shower Rooms, STYLISH OPEN PLAN DESIGN, Heated POOL COMPLEX & 75O sq. ft WORKSHOP, Exclusive Location CLOSE TO FOREST, EXT PKG

A fantastic semi-rural location, with a plot approaching one acre, plenty of parking/turning and a 750 sq. ft barn/workshop, are just a few features of this exceptional family home that has been cleverly designed and extended to a high standard by the current owners.
As you enter this magnificent home you are met by an impressive, illuminated oak/glass ‘split staircase' and a galleried reception hall with marble effect porcelain tiled floor that flows through to the dining area, which along with the sitting/media room and kitchen/day room, open onto the entertainment terrace via three sets of bi-fold doors.

The kitchen area (which has a continuation of the porcelain tiled floor) is designed to make the very best use of the space on offer and is fitted with high quality appliances which include Neff double ovens/plate warmer, combination over, induction hob and coffee machine, along with sleek quartz worktops, contrasting units and a wine cooler.

The media room/sitting room has a hard wired Sonos home cinema system with recessed ceiling speakers and a stunning, remote controlled feature gas fire.

Completing the ground floor accommodation are two further reception rooms, currently used as a dressing room/study and family room (but could be bedrooms 5 and 6 if needed), a utility room and cloakroom.

The vaulted and galleried first floor landing accesses four double bedrooms. One is the master bedroom suite, which has a vaulted ceiling, 4-piece en-suite bath/shower room, private balcony and wonderful, elevated views over the pool and gardens. There is also a guest bedroom suite with en-suite shower room and a sleek white, contemporary style 4-piece family bathroom that serves the remaining bedrooms.

This impressive home further benefits from zoned underfloor gas central heating (to the ground floor), hard-wired internet throughout and a new CCTV security system.

Two sets of new, remotely operated gates give access to a large, gravelled paring area and the block paved driveway to the house. A further set of gates and driveway lead down the side of the property to a detached double garage (remotely operated door) and secure storage facility to the side
.
Accessed by three sets of bi-fold doors is a fantastic, sandstone paved terrace, specifically designed for outdoor entertaining and al fresco dining. It flows around to the outdoor heated pool complex that was installed in 2021 (efficient air source heat pump). The pool has an electric safety cover for peace of mind.

The grounds are approximately 0.85 acres and are fenced and mainly laid to lawn. A small holding paddock could be created if necessary. At the end of the plot is a very large and useful workshop/barn that measures around 70 square metres (750 sq. ft). It is perfect for anyone who needs space to work on cars, or has a hobby that takes up a lot of space.
