About this property

  • From a welcoming and spacious entrance hall, the attractive living space has been thoughtfully designed and split between an upper and lower floors, creating formal and informal living spaces and cleverly concealed work areas, perfectly suiting the demands of everyday living. The sitting room is a particular highlight featuring a wonderful south facing balcony with an adjoining family room and music/hobby room. The kitchen/dining room and snug occupy almost the entire lower ground level with a bank of bi-folding doors opening on to the
    fabulous south facing terrace. The high specification kitchen features a range of built in Miele appliances, a Miele induction hob, and a discreet ‘in-island' extractor along with a range of floor and wall mounted cupboards and a sleek modern design. The snug features an impressive log burner and offers further flexibility in what is an already versatile layout. Neatly tucked away, but within easy reach are the practical luxuries of a fully fitted pantry with side access to the garden, a laundry room, boiler room and guest cloakroom.

    The primary suite encapsulates everything that makes the property special, with the vaulted ceilings, outstanding southerly views, fully fitted wardrobes and stunning en suite bathroom with separate shower. There are two further en suite bedrooms and an impressive guest wing with a dressing area and bathroom, featuring a separate shower.

    Little Orchard also benefits from underfloor heating on all levels with modern, high-quality materials used throughout the property to create interesting and unique features such as the stunning glazed bridge and vaulted gallery with views over the garden looking south.

    OUTSIDE
    The property is situated in an unassuming position set back from the private road that is Sleepers Hill. There is plenty of parking to the front of the property where there is also side access to the rear garden. The landscaping to the front has been cleverly designed creating screening from the road and a sense of privacy whilst setting the tone for the quality of the rest of the property.

    The rear garden is accessible from both sides of Little Orchard and has some wonderful ‘room like' spaces to relax, enjoy and entertain. A particular highlight is the stunning
    south facing terrace, made for al fresco dining and entertaining in the summer months. The elevated terrace features a sunken fishpond, areas for outdoor furniture, pots, and mature planting. The balance of the garden is mostly laid to lawn that gently falls to the lower boundary where there are established trees further screening the property and enhancing the sense of seclusion. Tucked away in the lower garden is brilliant space for growing children, play equipment and a large shed that could be used for storage or adapted to create a space for budding artists or hobbyists.
