About this property

  • Originally RAF buildings dating back to the Second World War, Blakemore has been sympathetically and creatively designed by a RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) architect, to create a sophisticated and contemporary living space suitable for a family or those looking for a lifestyle property offering space and natural light. Surrounded by nature and green space, Blakemore has been designed to include all ‘mod cons' whilst being mindful of the environment.

    The external timbers are Siberian larch and to maintain the fundamental character of the building, original windows have been restored for decorative use only, along with steel guttering and down pipes. Blakemore provides modern day living with fibre broadband connected, zonal underfloor heating throughout the property provided by an eco-friendly air source and a water treatment plant.

    The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall laid with engineered oak flooring which continues throughout the bedrooms. The hall offers a cloak cupboard, plant room housing the under floor heating system and WC.

    The stunning, open plan living area enjoys an abundance of natural light with three sets of sliding doors to two aspects, a contemporary Morso fire with a glass guillotine door, Large Porcelain floor tiles imported from Spain and exposed original roof trusses with bespoke mirrors. The kitchen is fully equipped with a range of fitted cupboards and units with quartz work surfaces, an island with inset sink, a range of Samsung appliances including a double oven and grill, microwave with warming draw and induction hob with extractor above. Other integrated appliances include the dishwasher, drinks cooler, fridge and freezer. The utility room is finished to an exacting standard with further fitted units and storage space.

    The four bedrooms flow well with oversized, sliding doors and vaulted ceilings. The principal bedroom spans the width of the property enjoying a dual aspect and an ensuite with a bath and separate shower. There is a further family bathroom with twin vanity sinks, a bath and separate shower.

    Outside
    Blakemore is approached via a graveled driveway to a spacious private parking area which has a detached double garage with remote control roller shutter doors. A tree lined graveled path leads to the paddock.

    The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with planted borders. The full width, timber terrace enjoys all day sun overlooking the fields and woodland beyond. The terrace runs along the side of the house and can be accessed by all doors in the living area making this an ideal home for entertaining and alfresco dining.
    Part of the garden may be used as a paddock for a livestock with a brook running along the boundary.
