Denise White Estate Agents Comments

Nestled in the heart of the countryside, this outstanding detached residence is a rare opportunity to acquire a home that blends timeless character with impeccable modern design. Set within generous and beautifully maintained grounds, the property exudes charm from the moment you arrive, with traditional Flemish bond brickwork and wooden double-glazed windows that complement its picturesque rural setting.

Sympathetically extended and meticulously restored by the current owners, the interiors are nothing short of exceptional. A stylish and neutral-toned entrance hall provides a warm welcome, while a striking stone mullion and leaded window offers a characterful glimpse into the adjacent lobby. The heart of the home is a flawless Shaker-style kitchen, complete with a central island, quartz worktops, and an array of high-quality integrated appliances. This space flows effortlessly into the dining area, which features cleverly designed storage solutions and a bespoke built-in desk—ideal for modern family life or home working.

A true standout feature is the bespoke handcrafted oak orangery, designed to take full advantage of the uninterrupted views over the garden and surrounding countryside. With underfloor heating, elegant décor, and full-height glazing, it offers a tranquil and inviting living space throughout the seasons.

The separate living room is equally impressive, offering a cosy and peaceful retreat with a log-burning stove and an expansive bay window that fills the room with natural light. A secondary lobby—ideal for country living—provides practical access to the courtyard and garden, making it the perfect space for kicking off muddy boots after a scenic walk. A well-appointed utility room with WC completes the ground floor, adding to the home’s thoughtful functionality.

Upstairs, the first floor offers four beautifully presented bedrooms. Three spacious doubles feature built-in wardrobes and breathtaking views over rolling green fields. The principal bedroom boasts a stylish and contemporary en suite shower room, along with a charming original stone fireplace, blending heritage and luxury. The fourth bedroom, a cosy single tucked within the eaves and finished with a dormer window, makes a perfect child’s room, nursery, or study. A generous family bathroom with extensive built-in storage completes the first-floor accommodation.

Externally, the property sits on a sizeable and private plot. The house is approached over a spacious gravel courtyard which provides ample parking for several vehicles, leading to a detached double-storey stone-built garage.

Surrounding the home, the sizeable cottage gardens create a peaceful and private haven. To the front, a large stone flagged patio—accessible from both the orangery and entrance hall—provides an ideal space for outdoor entertaining. A gated organic vegetable garden with raised beds, greenhouse, pond and garden shed offers a fantastic opportunity for self-sufficiency, while a separate lawned garden, enclosed by mature hedgerows, completes the idyllic setting.
