A unique and impressive family home, built in 2002 in the style reminiscent of a Cotswold manor house. The house was built using reclaimed materials such as roof tiles from France and red bricks from a mill in the north of England. The house is approached via large oak gates with an impressive gate house and a block paved driveway. There is ample space for parking as well as a single garage (currently used as a workshop). The entrance hall is grand with high ceilings, a limestone flagstone floor, exposed European oak beams, herringbone red brick walling and chandelier lighting. The farmhouse kitchen/living room is directly ahead and a sizable space with engineered oak flooring, exposed beams and a triple aspect orientation overlooking the terrace. The kitchen has a limestone flooring, island with marble worktops, Belfast sink and a Rangemaster cooker with double oven, grill, plate warmer and a five ring gas hob. There is also a freestanding LG fridge/freezer, dishwasher and a range of wall and base units with beech worktops. The dining area adjacent is substantial with ample space for dining and the living area is cosy with a red brick fireplace with log burner, oak mantel and flagstone hearth. Off the kitchen is a utility room with plumbing for white goods. Adjacent is a spacious gym / games room with ventilation and spot lighting. The drawing room, located off the hall is substantial with a triple aspect orientation and delightful views. There is engineered oak flooring throughout and a large, open, red brick fireplace with oak mantel and a flagstone hearth. The room provides a wonderful space to entertain large parties. A charming oak staircase leads to the first floor galleried landing which overlooks the hall. A study sits off this landing with views out over the river. Double doors lead through to a library with oak framed bookshelves and a minstrels gallery overlooking the drawing room. There are two double bedrooms on the first floor, both with en suite shower rooms, built-in wardrobes and superb south and west facing views. The farthest bedroom enjoys a Juliette balcony. There is also a modern family bathroom with a limestone flooring, mosaic tiling with submerged rolltop bathtub, a double walk-in rain shower and stone bowl sink. The principal suite is on the top floor commands superlative views in all directions with a large Juliette balcony overlooking the woodland and river below. There is a walk-in dressing room with wardrobes and a modern en suite shower room. Completing the top floor accommodation is two further bedrooms, one with an en suite.

Externally, a substantial timber decked terrace sits off the kitchen with a south and westerly orientation and provides and exceptional space for al fresco dining as well as sun loungers, outdoor firepits and a hot tub. There is a storage workshop around the corner with power, toilet and insulation giving it potential for annex conversion or an outdoor kitchen.
Back off the drive, timber decked stairs lead down to the riverside glade, well stocked beds and a timber framed fishing lodge. The banks are terraced and lined with trees. Steps lead down to the river for bathing or fishing activities (the house has full riparian fishing rights). Further down the garden is a fire pit camping area as well as second fishing hut. Back at the top of the drive is a pagoda style gatehouse with electrics, water access and exceptional westerly views which would make for an ideal home office.
