Description
Commanding superb views over countryside, 34 High Street (also known as South House) is a modern detached family residence designed in a contemporary style by R H Partnership and standing in its own landscaped gardens. The double-glazed entrance door leads to a large reception hall with double height double-glazed windows, a galleried landing, wooden flooring, and a staircase to the first floor.
The hall also features underfloor heating, and a cloaks cupboard. The kitchen/breakfast room features burgundy red gloss soft-close cupboards and drawers, Corian work surfaces with a sink and a mixer tap, a part-vaulted ceiling with recessed lighting. Integrated Smeg appliances include double ovens incorporating a steam oven and a microwave, a five-ring hob with an extractor hood, a dishwasher and refrigerator. Leading off the kitchen is the utility room which includes a pull-out larder cupboard, a stainless steel sink with a mixer tap, plumbing and space for a washing machine, space for a tumble dryer, a fridge/freezer and a door to low head height basement storage.
The dining area features underfloor heating, glazed door to terrace and twin doors leading to the sitting room, which includes underfloor heating, double-glazed windows to the front and side and opening doors to the paved terrace. The study is fitted with a range of furniture including a desk and an abundance of fitted storage. A cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.
A rear staircase and glazed corridor lead to the mezzanine level guest suite, which includes a fitted wardrobe with mirrored sliding doors, and part-vaulted ceiling, as well as benefiting from an en suite wet room featuring a walk-in shower, underfloor heating, a dual flush WC, a wash hand basin, a heated towel rail/radiator, and vaulted ceiling. A staircase from the reception hall leads to the galleried landing with floor-to-ceiling double-glazed windows to the front overlooking the drive and gardens. Bedroom one includes a fitted wardrobe with mirrored sliding doors, a part vaulted ceiling, and dual aspect double-glazed windows. The en suite wet room offers a walk-in shower with part porcelain tiled walls, a wall-hung wash hand basin, a low-level dual flush WC, and underfloor heating.
Bedroom three and four feature part-vaulted ceilings, and double-glazed windows to either side. Bedroom five is currently used as a dressing room to bedroom one and is fitted with wardrobes with sliding doors, shelving, and hanging rails, but can easily be converted back into a bedroom and has a double-glazed window overlooking the garden. The family bathroom features a freestanding bath with a shower attachment, a wash hand basin, a dual flush WC, and a walk-in shower.
Outside the property is approached via a gravelled sweeping driveway with adjoining shrub borders leading to a gravelled parking area and a double garage with electric remote controlled roll-over door. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with well-stocked flower and shrub border, a raised paved seating area, outside lighting, and a sunken paved terrace adjoining the back of the house which creates a delightful outdoor dining area. There is a small breakfast terrace outside the kitchen.
