A spacious family home with two acres and equestrian facilities.
The Property:The approach to The Paddock is through double wooden gates where there is sweeping gravel parking in front of the house as well as a track leading up to the stables. The house sits prominently on the hill benefiting from lovely views across the paddocks as well as rural views and fields.The house has been home to the current owners for almost eighteen years, now offering huge scope for potential buyers to add their own stamp. The house offers very good proportions downstairs with four separate entertaining rooms, as well as a central large kitchen/breakfast room. The living room is a generous sized, dual aspect room with a fireplace and French doors opening out on to a west facing patio. The Snug is a cosy space with a fireplace leading through to the Dining Room with French doors out into the garden. The Snug also leads out through the boot room outside. The large sitting/games room leads through to the utility room, where there is a backdoor out into the garden.Similar to the ground floor, the upstairs offers five well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which are en suite and a family bathroom servicing three. The landing is a lovely bright space currently being used as an office with sliding doors out on to a balcony with westerly views.Annexe (subject to usual planning consents) - Potential to create a separate, self-contained annexe by blocking off the Sitting / Games Room and Utility and Bedrooms two & four and installing stairs to link the two floors.Outbuildings - Two stone outbuildings are currently being used as storage, linking the track and stabling to the garden.Stables – x3 stables & storage with full planning to include equestrian use.Gardens & Grounds - The garden wraps around the whole house with a nice lawn at the back as well as a raised decking and lower patio between the swimming pool and fishpond.The paddocks are conveniently accessed directly from the stables and lead into one another with wooden fencing between.
