Description

Accommodation Ground Floor Beyond the gate found adjacent to the double garage on the main drive, you enter your own world where the stature and shape of this unique home comes into its own. Two things strike you immediately, one being the curvature of one part of the house and the other is the large BBQ area running along what was formerly an indoor swimming pool but is now a delightful, spacious guest suite. The property offers external elevations of brick, stone and colour wash render under a slate roof. Opening the front door, you are greeted by an impressive vaulted reception hall, complete with lift entrance, where you get a sense that this home is really something quite special. The fine Oak staircase makes quite a statement. A wide arch opens into the curved drawing room which has no less than four sets of opening double doors to the outside and a Minster Stone fireplace with log burner providing a focal point. What an ideal place with which to entertain and one can only imagine the enjoyment to be had during the summer afternoons and evenings in this room with all the doors open, listening to the sound of the fountain outside. From the hall a small flight of stairs leads down into an inner hall where the study, cloakroom, a large store cupboard and door to the outside are found. Double doors lead into the impressive 28’kitchen/breakfast room which is another wonderful entertaining space complete mood lighting and featuring an extensive range of wall, floor and drawer units with associated polished granite work surfaces, island unit complete with sink and Quooker instant hot water tap. Appliances include a Rangemaster induction hob with double oven hob, extractor, microwave, dish washer, coffee machine and a Rangemaster double door fridge freezer. A honeyed Oak floor offsets the cream and black from the kitchen units and worksurfaces beautifully, and gives a lovely warm feel throughout the room. The flooring continues through the double doors into the garden/sun room which has almost full height glazing overlooking the pond. Sitting in here you get a sense of calm with the pond outside and the sound of the water tumbling down from the fountain. Opening up from the kitchen a rear hall gives access via a side door out to the second driveway and a further door connects to the double garage. A spiral staircase leads to the upper floor Annex which has an open plan sitting room/ kitchen/bedroom. The kitchen area has a full range of matching wall and base units, integrated fridge freezer, double oven and four ring electric hob and along run of worksurface with bistro bar at on end.

A bathroom with three piece suite completes the accommodation. Planning has been passed to create further accommodation (Torridge District Council 1/1071/2022/FUL).
