A modern four/five bedroom property, nestled amidst about six acres boasting a detached single storey outbuilding and located in a tranquil setting.
Description
Nestled within about six acres of serene countryside, this property offers a haven of tranquility and privacy, surrounded by the lush embrace of nature and mature trees. The expansive landscape is a picture of rural charm, providing a perfect backdrop for a peaceful retreat.
South Orchard is an impressive and unique family home which has been substantially extended and refurbished to a high specification throughout by the current owners, resulting in beautifully presented contemporary accommodation. Together with a detached single storey outbuilding, providing ancillary accommodation (STP), all set amidst about six acres of beautiful gardens, grounds and woodland, the property is set in a tranquil location with land enveloping the property.
The property has cat 6 wiring in place, Next Thermostats and Smoke/heat detectors along with an Arlo CCTV system and underfloor heating to the ground floor with individual thermostats. Ground floor accommodation includes a generously proportioned sitting room, a study and a gym which is cleverly arranged with access through the understairs cupboard, this could also be utilised as an additional reception room or ground floor bedroom.
A particular feature is the magnificent open plan kitchen/dining room with direct access via bi-fold doors to the substantial terrace, ideal for al fresco dining. The kitchen is equipped with a range of cupboards and Neff appliances including a fridge/freezer, two ovens, microwave/combi oven and dishwasher. The utility room has further storage with space for a washing machine and a tumble dryer, it also includes a wet room.
On the first floor there are four bedrooms, the majority enjoying a dual aspect with views across the attractive grounds. The principal bedroom has a vaulted ceiling complete with a dressing room and contemporary en suite shower room, with the second bedroom also having an en suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms are served by a stylishly appointed family bathroom with a free standing bath and separate shower cubicle.
Situated to the south east of the main house is a detached single storey building comprising a number of rooms and enjoying a decked area with easterly views. This could be used as ancillary/annexe accommodation, subject to the necessary planning and building control requirements.
Electronically operated gates provide access via a 200m driveway to a generous gravel parking area for almost 15 cars and access to the double garage. The gardens provide a delightful backdrop, stretching mainly to the north and east with further lawned areas, a stream and an area of woodland. There is an orchard comprising a variety of fruit trees including apple and pear as well as a substantial decked area providing a seating area. Completing the property is a garden shed and a decommissioned swimming pool which would require investment to reinstate.
