This attractive, substantial property occupies a plot of just over two and a half acres in a private location not far from the pretty rural village of Woodbury.
The four-bedroom detached dwelling, named Blankets Brake, was constructed in 1987 and sits amid a largely level plot with picturesque gardens and a broad-leafed woodland.
Over the years, the current owners have made many improvements to the property including the refurbishment of the three bathrooms, each with underfloor heating, and the creation of a large purpose-built garden office.
Inside, a spacious reception hallway with a wooden floor leads to the principal rooms. The well-proportioned sitting room is an inviting space with a dual aspect and a feature fireplace housing a wood burning stove. There is a large formal dining room as well as a second sitting room. The farmhouse-style kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of units and has an electric Aga. The ground floor is completed with a modern shower room.
A turning stairway rises to the first floor where a galleried landing leads to four double bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from having a triple aspect and a modern four-piece ensuite bathroom.
Outside, the large, mature gardens that surround the house are landscaped with areas of lawn and attractively planted borders with an array of shrubs, including include Azalea and Rhododendron, that provide colour and interest throughout the seasons. The rest of the land comprises a well-established woodland with several fruit trees, a pond and a decked seating area. Also in the garden, is a recently built office with a large reception, two rooms and a storeroom
At the entrance, five-barred wooden gates open to a large parking and turning area, and lead to a detached double garage.
