5 bed detached house for sale

Middle Lane, Bovingdon HP3

Rebuilt in 2017 this family house sits on the edge of Bovingdon’s pretty village green with open views of the rolling countryside to the rear. Converted from one of the village’s original public houses, the property has been internally rebuilt to now offer a stylish contemporary interior, with flexible, flowing reception space. Entrance to the house is via an impressive reception hall with a central fireplace and ample space for furnishing or dining. This heart of the house leads into the sitting room, study and gym, all of which corner the house and enjoy double aspects. The present layout is entirely flexible and the oak flooring greatly enhances the flow of this lovely property. Double doors from the hall open into the impactful kitchen/breakfast room, lit from overhead by an impressive star lit roof lantern. Cleverly designed for both a soft seated area and informal dining by the extensive bi-folding doors, which open onto the rear dining terrace, of Indian sandstone. The design of the kitchen has been planned by Burbidge for the cook in every family and offers an extensive layout out of appliances and units. A lovely family room lies immediately adjacent, with its own bi-folding doors to the terrace. The inclusion of a wine cupboard and a generous utility and boot room, really does cater for a modern family’s’ needs.

To the first floor is a generous L-shaped landing, which is well lit with views over the rear gardens. The bedroom accommodation is designed around two principle suites, one of which has the flexibility to extend, into the fifth bedroom. A further guest suite and two independent bedrooms with a family bathroom, completes this floor. The bathrooms have been individually designed to each bedroom arrangement which further enhances the bespoke style of this house.

Outside

The gardens extend to half an acre in total and incorporate generous driveway parking to the front and rear, level lawns and open views to rolling countryside to the rear. The rear raised dining terrace is directly reached from the bi-folding doors of the kitchen/breakfast room and family room and steps down to the generous lawns and a path to the Studio. This versatile studio with its own Kitchenette is ideal for use as a workspace, hobby room, or additional entertaining area.
