DESCRIPTION
This superb, detached home is positioned in a tranquil semi-rural setting surrounded by open countryside with charming views, at the edge of this sought-after village. The house has been the subject of continual improvements and enhancements over recent years resulting in a home designed with family life, entertaining and quiet retreat in mind with excellent reception space and a balanced bedroom arrangement. Clever details have given the house a sociable and playful feel with the main reception rooms, whilst separate, a free-flowing space where each room interlinks.
The standard of finish throughout the house is immaculate and the principal rooms have been designed to enjoy views over the garden. The ground floor contains the living space including an exceptional sitting room with views of the grounds to the front. By way of sliding doors, this room opens to the orangery with double doors leading directly to the sun terrace. The dining room is partially open to the kitchen, creating a practical space that is well-appointed with an excellent range of units and integrated appliances. Adjacent is a utility/boot room with direct access to outside. A study is positioned off the hallway. A bedroom with en suite occupies a generous space on the ground floor, an ideal room should a prospective owner need a bedroom on one level without comprising the traditions of a two-storey build. A cloakroom completes the accommodation.
On the first floor are three excellent double bedrooms, arranged around an airy landing. The master bedroom has an en suite bathroom, and the two further bedrooms enjoy en suite shower rooms.

OUTSIDE
Occupying a private and idyllic setting, Deerhurst House is positioned at the end of a long country lane to the edge of this lovely village. A gated entrance opens to a blocked paved driveway fronting the house, leading to parking for several cars and to the double garage and large storage shed. The broader gardens are an expanse of level lawn interspersed with strategic seating areas including a decked terrace ideal for a BBQ and loungers and the sun terrace, which connects the exterior to the inside of the house. Specimen trees, including apple, pear and plum form a small orchard and manicured hedging frames the perimeter offering a real sense of privacy. Within the grounds is a detached annex which is currently arranged as a games room, bar and cloakroom. With ease, this could be adapted to create a studio for several uses including guest accommodation or a home office/studio.
