A truly exceptional country home refurbished to exacting standards in the heart of glorious countryside.
The Old Manor is an exceptional home and it is rare to find a property that has been refurbished to such a fine and elegant finish. It now offers five bedrooms and three bathrooms with beautiful touches that include the exceptional Harvey Jones kitchen, a spacious David Salisbury conservatory with accoya hardwood windows throughout the home, replaced in 2020 and with a ten year warranty, flooring tiles from Mandarin Stone, underfloor heating in the bathrooms and throughout the ground floor reception rooms (except the conservatory) and beautifully proportioned family accommodation with light and modern touches throughout. The grounds that surround the property are perfectly balanced to complement the generous scale of the home and the detached double garage with attic room above offers excellent scope for further remodelling to create an annexe, office or leisure suite.
Set off a rural country lane and approached via a smart gated entrance, a long driveway with ample parking for numerous cars sweeps beyond the manicured front lawn to the central front door. The property undoubtedly offers great kerb appeal with mellow random stone elevations and stone mullioned windows and the interior of the home has been comprehensively remodelled and refurbished by the current owners to uncompromising quality. The bright tiled hallway has a showeroom/cloakroom to one side offering scope to use the ground floor snug/cinema room as an additional bedroom for a dependant relative is needed. The magnificent kitchen by Harvey Jones is a key feature of the home. This room has an understated charm, exceptionally stylish, flooded with natural light and providing terrific storage with a wide run of ivory painted cabinets with a contemporary belfast sink, and a central breakfast bar with a matching granite work surface. There is a walk in larder and a comprehensive range of high end appliances. There is home cinema and music system with built in speakers throughout the ground floor reception rooms and garden patio for entertaining (the full cinema equipment can be included subject to separate negotiation).
Double doors from the kitchen open into the wonderful conservatory, significantly extending the relaxed and informal entertaining area and providing the link to the sheltered and private rear garden. The sitting room is a quiet and elegant room, decorated in a calm and predominantly neutral palette with a feature fireplace with wood burning stove and bespoke alcove cupboards and display shelving to either side.
The first floor offers five beautiful bedrooms with lovely views over the gardens and countryside and two first class bathrooms finished to a boutique hotel standard.
The entire property was completely re-wired with Cat 6 cabling throughout for high speed connectivity in every room. There is also energy efficient LED lighting throughout and solar thermal panels on the roof generating hot water. A home security system has been fitted with CCTV.
The grounds that surround the property are safely enclosed for those with young children and offer lawned play areas, scented lavender and flower borders and a large south facing flagstone terrace adjacent to the conservatory, perfect for outdoor dining. There is a landscaped vegetable garden with raised beds and a greenhouse, as well as numerous fruit trees in the garden.
The pitched double garage has electric doors and includes a useful first floor attic room which could be used as home office or play room if so desired.
