Beautifully situated detached property set amidst delightful gardens of about 3.4 acres.
Coming to the market for the first time in almost 30 years, High Banks is a beautifully situated unlisted home in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which has been extended by the current owners to incorporate a beautifully proportioned family home set amidst delightful gardens and enjoys far reaching southerly and northerly views.
This charming and beautifully presented home currently comprises a welcoming entrance hall with Yorkshire stone flooring, off which is a light and airy southerly facing sitting room with wood burner and fitted shelving. Further reception rooms include a dual aspect dining room, a conservatory with a terrace overlooking the garden and a breakfast room.
The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of cupboards, an oil fired Aga and oak worksurfaces. Off the kitchen is a generously proportioned utility room with additional cupboards, space for white goods and a door out to the rear garden. To the west side of the ground floor, is a great versatility of rooms, ideal for multigenerational living. These include a studio/bedroom four and a study/bedroom five which are served by a shower room, with a stable door out to the rear patio area via the studio/bedroom four. A separate cloakroom concludes the ground floor accommodation.
From each end of the property, a staircase leads up to three bedrooms, one with en suite, and a family bathroom. The main bedroom is of good proportions and enjoys a triple aspect with two dormer windows. Bedroom two enjoys an en suite shower room whilst the other bedrooms are served by a family bathroom.
Outside to the front of the property is a block paved driveway which provides off road parking for multiple cars and access to the double garage with mezzanine flooring above. Attractive, well established gardens with mixed hedging lie mainly to the rear of the property with a range of specimen trees, fruit trees, spring bulbs and attractive rose beds. Located to the rear of the garden is a tennis court with tennis hut and veranda, as well as a golf net and mower shed. There is a paved terrace area with raised beds and a potting shed to enjoy gardening in this peaceful and tranquil setting, together with a pergola and a choice of areas to sit and relax.
