Description
A imaginatively extended family house in an elevated position with exceptional gardens
Russets is approached from a paved driveway that provides parking for several vehicles, with well-maintained borders and an area of lawn. The sitting room has been extended to create an imposing double aspect room complemented by a central fireplace with a wood-burning stove. This room leads seamlessly into a fabulous garden room with French doors to the outside. The heart of this home is the striking, well equipped kitchen with a range of bespoke cabinets under an expanse of quartz work-surfaces. Features include a Quooker hot water tap, Miele induction hob, integrated fridge, oven/microwave, a separate fan assisted oven and a warming drawer. In addition, there is a large breakfast bar dividing the kitchen from the dining area which provides a wonderful area for entertaining, and two pairs of French doors leading to a paved terrace. A further reception room, currently used as a study and family room, has views across the front garden. There is a separate utility room.
The first floor has four double bedrooms, two of which have refitted ensuite shower rooms. The principal suite has a large walk-in dressing room that leads to an ensuite bathroom which enjoys views across the rear garden. Bedroom four is served by a family shower room which has also been refitted in recent years. Outside
The grounds of this property are a truly spectacular feature where a great deal of thought and consideration has been invested into the planting ensuring that there is colour throughout the year.
The front garden is predominantly laid to lawn with borders and parking. Gated access along the side of the property opens into the rear garden. There is a paved patio, providing a secluded area for outside entertaining. Steps lead up to other interesting areas of the garden with colourful borders, specimen trees and mature shrubs. The top half of the garden extends behind neighbouring properties and provides a wonderful area for children to play on the large area of lawn, a kitchen garden and 8 fruit trees. In addition, there is a henhouse and various outbuildings for garden storage. The total plot measures approximately 0.33 of an acre, are in a central village setting.
