Description
An impressive family home with spacious welcoming rooms set over 4,000 square feet of accommodation. This attractive house has a plethora of reception space, being wide and lateral in configuration all linked by a cantilever stone stair.

To the ground floor is the library and office room, with built in bookshelves and sliding library ladders. Towards the back of this lovely room and overlooking the garden is an office and study with a built-in wall to wall desk and a wood burning stove set in an impressive fireplace, with a wall mounted TV and ample room for comfy sofas and furniture. Also to this floor is a spacious sitting room that flows through to a large drawing room with a pleasing dual aspect to the front and back of the house offering versatile space to work from home.
The lower ground garden level is home to a fantastic open plan kitchen and dining room with extraordinary seamless wide board Dinesen Douglas fir flooring, all under floor heated. The kitchen has a sizeable island unit and breakfast bar, and the kitchen is fully fitted with integrated appliances and an AGA. There is a utility and boot room that opens to the driveway to the side. A lovely light craft room sits to the same floor and could function as a studio or office too. There is a pretty conservatory that also opens to the garden giving the house so much flexibility whatever the weather.

The dining room opens out onto the rear patio terrace through glazed French doors. The garage has been converted to a handy gym/office/fifth bedroom with glazed doors that open to the driveway meaning it can still be used as a storage room but remains a flexible use space.

Upstairs are four double bedrooms. The principal bedroom looks out through sash windows to the front and has a smartly hidden walk-in dressing room and a large en suite with incredible far reaching views over the city. There are two further double bedrooms to this floor as well as a shower room and a separate WC. To the top floor is the fourth bedroom with its own bathroom. There is a large loft/eaves storage room which also houses the heating system of the house.
The walled gardens are glorious, with a full width sunny patio facing southwest that steps down to a box hedge lined pathway, pond and lawn separated by pleached lime trees. The house has driveway parking to the front for two cars and sits to the side of a mature planted box hedge and cypress tree lined path to the front steps.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

  • You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
  • They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
  • Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

When you see a property you are interested in on our website, call us 24/7 to arrange a viewing. Or if you prefer, get in touch via our website and we will call you back to find a time to view the property that suits you.

Once you’ve found a property you want to buy, it’s time to make an offer. A bit of negotiation is to be expected, however don't offer so little that you end up in a lengthy negotiation process, as you might lose the property altogether if someone else makes a higher bid.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.

If you have a property to sell, why not see how we can help you.
