Description

This imaginative conversion has inspired design features combining the period elements with all that the most demanding buyers would expect in a contemporary home. The open plan living kitchen lies at the heart of the property and the principal rooms emanate off this with the ‘quiet’ sitting room, drawing room and reception hallway. The flexibility of the layout of the house soon becomes apparent with the master bedroom suite on the ground floor with bi-fold doors opening to the rear gardens and three further bedrooms and bathrooms to the first floor. This is a well planned modern home with a period core. The leaded windows to the front elevation are matched by bi-fold doors to the principal rooms at the rear. Exquisite leaded and stained glass windows sit comfortably with oak flooring, polished porcelain tiling and elegant fireplaces. The living kitchen is bespoke and superbly appointed with integrated appliances of the highest standard. The privacy wall to the front has
automated gates and a video entry phone, a small part of the excellent security system befitting a property of this calibre. Lawned gardens extend to the rear of the house with a full width terrace and a good degree of privacy.
