Description

Brookvale is a stunning Grade II listed house, built in 1742 with flint and brick banding and a red clay tiled roof, located in the heart of the village. Over the years, the property has undergone several extensions, with the current owners adding a garden room extension and a superb new kitchen.
The entrance hall, located at the rear of the house, provides access to the principal rooms and the guest WC. A brick and stone staircase leads to the first floor. The impressive garden room, featuring a built-in dresser, offers dual-aspect views and French doors with sidelights opening onto the terrace and garden. The attractive sitting room showcases an exposed beamed ceiling, a brick fireplace with a log burner, and a stone hearth. Dual-aspect windows, including one with a window seat, and a garden door complete the room’s charm. The dining room shares the same beamed ceiling and features two arched apertures that open into the sitting room.
The beautifully appointed kitchen, recently installed, includes a combination of wall and floor-mounted cupboards with quartz surfaces. The kitchen also features shelving, a wine rack, and high-end NEFF cooking appliances, including an oven, combination oven, warming drawer, and induction hob. Additionally, there is an integrated fridge/freezer, washing machine, dishwasher, and a larder cupboard.
Upstairs, the landing features a laundry cupboard that also houses the unvented hot water cylinder.
