Property description
This spacious, detached 4-bedroom family house, situated on a pretty rural lane on the outskirts of Cross-in-Hand, has been completely renovated by the current owners and is entirely surrounded by its own land of approximately one acre.
DESCRIPTION
This beautifully situated family house has much to offer its new owners. Whether your children are old or young, the spacious ground floor, with its wealth of reception rooms, gives everyone the space they need. Great care has been taken to the layout of this house, so that most rooms enjoy views and access to the beautiful west-facing, level gardens which are a real feature of this property. The house sits very comfortably within its own mature grounds of just over an acre, which house three garages and a workshop.
ACCOMODATION
The front door opens to the entrance porch, which is a generous area with plenty of space for coats and boots. A few steps up lead to the hallway, which in turn leads to the family room, sitting room and kitchen / diner / snug. From the sitting room there is a lovely conservatory, which takes full advantage of the views to the mature, rear garden. The kitchen is a truly welcoming space, with integrated appliances and a range of shaker-style cabinetry, complemented beautifully by engineered oak flooring and expansive worktops. The cream wood-burning stove in the snug area makes this a lovely warm space, whatever the weather. The utility room and downstairs WC complete the accommodation of the ground floor. Stairs from the entrance hallway lead to the tranquil master bedroom, with its dressing area and en-suite. There are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom, leading from the generous landing, which also gives access to the boarded loft.
OUTSIDE
The property is approached via a gravel driveway which leads to the generous parking area, where the garages and workshop can be found. The house\‘s expansive gardens entirely surround the property and are mainly laid to lawn, with border planting and fruit and mature trees.
