Stunning family home set within delightful grounds.
Wisteria House is an extremely well presented, family residence situated in charming surroundings, set well back from the road and behind electronic gates. This superb home is set within a plot approaching 3 acres and offers substantial but very usable accommodation of about 3,600 sq ft. Having been extended in the past by well regarded local developers Orchard Homes, the property was transformed to create a house with a unique sense of style and space as well as modern practicalities.
Four fine reception rooms offer the potential for highly flexible living arrangements. The first is a triple aspect drawing room complete with fireplace and wood burning stove as well as double doors leading into the gardens. A second reception room makes for a wonderful multi-purpose room such as a TV room, music room or perhaps a children's playroom. A useful home office, facing towards the front of the house is an ideal, working from home room or perhaps a downstairs bedroom if required. The literal heart of the home is the stunning kitchen/dining room which boasts incredible natural light, entertaining space and quality.
The kitchen units themselves are a bespoke shaker style and are set underneath quartz worksurfaces, while the characterful gas AGA in attractive navy blue gives an air of country living. With a large island unit and incorporated breakfast bar, this is a real social hub and there is suitable floorspace for the room to be used as a dining room together with a further sitting room which enjoys a spectacular southerly outlook through beautiful french doors. The ground floor is completed via a utility, boot room, cloakroom and large pantry.
On the first floor are five bedrooms including the most impressive principal suite. This room has a dual aspect with fine views over to the church as well as down the length of the garden. With a generously appointed four piece en suite and a dressing room, the bedroom is sure to impress. Four further bedrooms provide excellent family as well as guest accommodation and these are served via a separate shower room as well as a four-piece bathroom.
Outside
Wisteria House is approached down a lengthy driveway and is accessed through secure electronic gates. This leads into a large private driveway with space for numerous vehicles and a detached double garage for secure parking. The overall plot measures approximately 2.89 acres and features several areas of interest. From its south facing patio terrace, perfect for garden parties and outdoor cooking, to its paddock beyond, there really is an element to the grounds that will suit all purchasers. Siding onto woodland there is a high degree of natural privacy and, thanks to the property's large front garden, the house sits well back from the road. The gardens have a mixture of trees and shrubs, borders and beds as well as architectural plants which add a real maturity to the setting. The summer house makes for a lovely spot to enjoy a fine view of both the house and the grounds. To the rear of the garage is a useful outbuilding for storage.
