Description

Originally forming part of the Rake Manor Estate, is this spectacular barn conversion situated in the heart of the village within close proximity of the local amenities including the popular Secretts farm shop and Milford train station. Exceptionally well presented, the current owner completed an extensive programme of refurbishment within the last ten years, with accommodation extending over 5000 sq ft in total.

The bespoke kitchen has been designed in a contemporary style, fitted with integrated Neff appliances, steel work surfaces and a gas hob. The kitchen has ample space for dining and extends into the family room, a wonderful space for entertaining and well suited for busy family life with access to the garden. The open plan drawing room and sitting room is again generous in size with its impressive vaulted ceiling with Velux windows, arched windows, and divided by the feature central log burner. There is a home gym off the drawing room and a large office facing the front of the house. There are two beautifully presented guest bedrooms on the ground floor both with en suite shower rooms, one of them being a full suite with a reception room, kitchenette, and access to the patio garden. This self contained part of the house is suitable for a nanny, guests, multigenerational living or an Airbnb opportunity. A utility room and cloakroom complete the downstairs accommodation.

On the first floor is a generous principal bedroom suite with a dressing room and an en suite with a beautiful freestanding bath and a walk in shower. There are three further bedrooms, a study and a family bathroom. All bedrooms are filled with natural light and enjoy a pleasant aspect over the grounds.

The landscaped gardens extend to approximately 4.2 acres. Tranquil and private, the grounds have been designed to provide colour through spring until autumn. A particular feature is the heated swimming pool with a fabulous paved area and a pool house with bi fold doors opening on to the decking. There is a walled terrace with a brick built, wood fired pizza oven, a beautiful seating area with a pergola.

The tennis court is discreetly positioned and well screened behind a number of mature and specimen trees.

To the front of the house is an open bay double garage with an attached store and a wood store and ample car parking.
