Either side of the fireplace doors open from the living room into the office and the garden room, which also conveniently link directly to each other, enabling a great flow around the rooms. The office is large, being thirteen feet by eleven feet, and well lit by windows to the front and side. Certainly big enough for multiple desks this could easily provide a comprehensive business hub if needed, but would alternatively serve as a delightful snug/TV room for the family.

This property really excels at linking the house to the gardens and the stunning garden room epitomises that seamless transition. Perfectly configured with a side window and a log burner, the lounge/study area migrate into the sharp clean lines of the three quarter glazed garden area, complete with large window sills for houseplants and objets d'art and topped off with super banquette seating along one side. A quite delightful room for all seasons.

The kitchen/breakfast room is well appointed and stylish, with all of the appliances you would expect to find in a house of this quality. It has plenty of storage by way of floor mounted, wall mounted and full length fitted cupboards as well as a large pantry. There is plenty of space to accommodate a large casual dining table, with double doors opening onto the rear patio providing an idyllic summer dining experience. The kitchen is adjoined by a well fitted utility/laundry room.
The dining room is a great shape and size, easily accepting a large dining table and other furniture besides, and is flooded with natural light from the three windows to front and side aspects as well as the double glazed doors that open onto the side patio.

The stairway turns elegantly as it rises to a light, bright, galleried upper landing lit by two windows to the front, which gives access to the four double bedrooms and the family shower room. All of the bedrooms are well served by fitted wardrobes. Three of them have en suite shower/bathrooms, one of which is by a clever "Jack and Jill" arrangement to the family shower room.

The double garage/workshop is conveniently located near the entrance gates and has additional parking bays alongside it. Nestled within the planting in the rear garden is a delightful detached garden room which would be a wonderful place for an office, gym, workshop or arts/crafts studio. Surrounded by the wonderful gardens and woodland, creative inspiration would never be far away!

Exterior:
Secure, gated access opens onto an oasis of green, with the front of the house enjoying beautifully orchestrated planting of shrubs, bushes and specimen trees alongside the garage and driveway,and all around the property. The large block paved driveway opens out onto the frontage of the house providing plenty of guest parking over and above the garage and additional parking area adjoining it. To the side and rear, the house is surrounded by a carefully curated cottage garden on a grand scale. Deep borders sport an incredible variety of plants and flowers, with separate independent patios and lawns joined up by woodland walkways and arches to give a lovely feeling of being in different "rooms" within the garden, enhanced by an attractively shaped greenhouse and a stylish water feature. All off this is topped off by the beautiful natural woodland as a perfect backdrop. This really does feel like a modern luxurious house has been dropped into the middle of an enchanted forest.
