About this property

  • Brooklands is a very pretty stone character property in a conservation area, believed to have formally been two or three cottages and a village shop. Now offering the best of both worlds with character exterior and a more contemporary interior, yet still retaining much of its charm with original features like the open fire place in the drawing room and exposed over head beams.

    The house has a lovely open plan kitchen/breakfast room with underfloor heating, which wraps around to the utility area with bifold doors leading out on to the paved terrace and rear garden. Views extend across the garden and beyond.

    The generous reception room has been divided into two large living spaces to create a dining area and drawing room with high ceilings and a fire place with wood burning stove.

    There is also a reception hall which could also be used as a snug.

    On the first floor is the principal bedroom with dressing room and generous en suite bathroom, two further bedrooms and a bathroom.

    On the second floor are two bedrooms with shower en suite accessed via two separate staircases.

    The gardens are terraced on three levels planted with mature trees, including apple, fig and quince trees enclosed by stone walls and fencing. There is a summer house and Anderson shelter connected with electricity with far reaching village views. The paved terrace with BBQ area provides a lovely entertaining space, immediately adjacent to the house.

    Outside is a useful private home office with WC providing a lovely outlook over the gardens offering a tranquil place for working from home. Crucial to village living is ample off road parking, double garage with automatic up and over doors which is being used as a gym, light and power connected.

I love the fact that the house is within walking distance of the schools and other amenities, yet situated on such a tranquil street. The combination of the character features and the more contemporary fixtures and fittings makes it a very easy house to move straight into.
