Comment From Robert Reed Of Gascoigne Halman

I grew up in a 1930's house so have a natural affinity with all that they offer and provide. They really are a benchmark of excellence when it comes to build quality and craftsmanship. This lovely individual house is a great example of such and benefits from a substantial extension that was so sympathetically built that it is really hard to work out what is original and what is new!

The subject property is called Blue Ridge and is located on Dalefords Lane in Whitegate. It presents a unique opportunity to acquire a truly charming detached, double-fronted residence which combines style and character with size and practicality.

The house is gracefully set within a stunning plot that extends to approximately 0.43 acres, offering a remarkable sense of privacy and natural beauty. The property enjoys the rare advantage of a privately owned woodland stretching beyond its boundaries, enhancing its tranquil setting. This provides unchallenged privacy and importantly, the owner has a legally enshrined right to enter the woodland. This in turn means that there are amazing walks without the need to get in the car and is ideal for those with children or dogs.

Upon entering Blue Ridge, one is greeted by a generously sized entrance hall, a hallmark of the architectural elegance typical of its era. The spacious interior extends to a total of 3,420 square feet, providing ample living accommodation. The ground floor boasts five versatile reception rooms, each offering distinct spaces for relaxation, entertainment, or formal gatherings. It is absolutely ideal for family life, with so much versatility. Central to the home's design is a large, open-plan kitchen, designed for both culinary pursuits and the hub of day to day family living. The latter area perfectly represents the best in modern day design, with full views and access to the garden.
