Property description

A modern and substantial country home enjoying spectacular far reaching southerly facing views and beautifully positioned at the end of a no-through lane occupying gardens and grounds of about 3.1 acres. This fine family home, constructed in 2002 by the present owners, offers light and spacious accommodation extending to 4,216 sq. ft. and has been designed to maximise the fine position with the main rooms all enjoying a superb outlook.  The mature gardens and grounds are a particular feature of Foot Tracks and surround the house on all sides providing peace and seclusion and adjoining, in part, open farmland and rolling countryside. To one side there is a large paddock with a level hard-core area which could be used for a tennis court if required.  The gardens are interspersed with numerous mature flower and shrub beds providing year round colour and extend to about 3.1 acres. Within the grounds there is a large 832 sq. ft. detached games room/office building with two floors and a small kitchenette and cloakroom with WC. (This building could be used as a self-contained annex ideal for an elderly relative/teenager). The house has been constructed to an exceptional specification throughout with under floor heating to entire house, bespoke oak joinery including beams, architraves, skirting and internal doors as well as double glazed timber framed windows and individually designed wrought iron fittings. The well planned accommodation comprises in brief on the ground floor an oak framed gabled entrance, a fine vaulted dining hall with wood burning stove and striking oak staircase rising to the first floor landing, a cloakroom, a double aspect family room, an impressive double aspect drawing room with large brick fireplace, an oak framed kitchen/breakfast room (fitted with a Schofield and Crafter kitchen) with full integrated appliances and a useful utility room.  From the reception hall a staircase rises to a galleried first floor landing which benefits from several sky light windows maximising natural light and enjoying fine southerly views, a master bedroom with private balcony, ‘his n her’s’ dressing rooms and an en-suite bath/shower room, four further good sized bedrooms (one with en-suite shower room) and a family bath/shower room.  Outside the property is approached via twin electronically controlled wrought iron gates on brick pillars with a sweeping brick driveway leading to a large parking area and an integral double garage. The gardens surround the house on all sides and provide a fine back drop to this contemporary family home. Planning permission has been granted for the construction of a three bay garage block, pool changing room and a first floor store; application number: WD/2011/2223/F.  The integral double garage provides tremendous scope for conversion to provide additional accommodation subject to the necessary consents.
