The property was designed and built in 1963 by a local architect for his own occupation, and has since undergone a full internal renovation by the current occupier, as well as the construction of a fully self-contained studio in the orchard. The building takes advantage of its secluded location having floor to ceiling triple glazed windows and doors in the principal reception rooms which overlook the gardens and open countryside beyond.
Set in a generous plot of approximately 1.5 acres the property is approached via electric gates and a sweeping gravel driveway with gardens on all four sides. To the right of the driveway there is an orchard of apple, pear, plum and peach and beyond a fully fenced, productive vegetable garden.
Internally, the property is immaculately presented as the ground floor comprises entrance hall leading into living room with marble mantlepiece and double aspect floor to ceiling windows overlooking the gardens and fields with views of the neighbouring village's church spire. The beautifully presented open plan kitchen/dining room complete with skylights, pantry and utility space is located to the rear of the property and has immediate access to a delightful walled garden perfect for al fresco dining. There is also a study with stunning views across the gardens and a downstairs cloakroom on this level.
On the first floor are four large double bedrooms, two en suite and one currently being used as a dressing room, and family bathroom.
To the front of the property is the newly installed self-contained studio consisting of an open plan kitchen/living area, double bedroom and shower room. The studio offers a fantastic short-let opportunity, or would be ideal for a family with multiple generations.
To the rear of the property the large expanse of lawn would be an ideal spot for a tennis court or swimming pool and finally there is a double garage with power, light and w.c.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
