DESCRIPTION
A remarkable modern property that was built blending traditional local materials with a contemporary design; Oak framed wings, attached to the central Cotswold stone centre, under a slate tile roof. The accommodation is designed around the want for space and volume, the oak framed wings creating expansive rooms with vaulted ceilings and large glazed windows overlooking its immaculate gardens. The entrance hall leads into a library and reception area off which an inner hall leads into the breath-taking 29' x 44' drawing room. This is a wonderful open plan and versatile space, offering superb acoustics, with a large piano in one corner and living space at the far end, perfect for parties. Stairs lead up to a large mezzanine study. At the far end of the house a formal dining room leads through to another spacious open plan kitchen/ family room with far reaching views with a Mark Wilkinson hand built kitchen and a central island workstation. It has an Aga and doors from this room as with the other principal rooms open into the south facing garden.
The first floor provides three en suite double bedrooms, the master bedroom boasting a large walkthrough dressing room. The adjoining coach house provides guest accommodation, with two bedrooms, a kitchen and a sitting room The gardens are a delight; interlinking ponds around a paved terrace outside the kitchen leading onto a level lawn with central lavender lined walkway which leads out to the countryside it overlooks in a southerly aspect. A large hedgerow has a gate that opens into a fabulous Japanese garden, designed around a large pond with a pretty bridge over it. At the far side is a decked terrace taking in the elevated rural views to the south. This elevated decked area has a wood built Shepherd's Hut with power and lighting giving a perfect sewing room/home office/summerhouse. A shared tree lined drive leads around a turning circle to private gates leading into a gravel driveway parking area leading to extensive garaging.
