The Property
Stepping into the property, one is welcomed into a large vaulted entrance hall with doors leading to all rooms and a window above the pine staircase floods the room with natural light. Leading off the entrance hall is a rear hallway which leads off to the cloakroom, utility room, integral garage and opens out into the light and spacious kitchen which enjoys views into the front garden. Solid wood base and wall units line the walls with speckled laminate worktops as well as a Hotpoint double oven, ceramic hob, one and a half bowl sink, integrated fridge and dishwasher, and a pair of basket draws. A red Aga provides an eye catching focal point and sits across the kitchen from the archway through to the breakfast room, beyond which a well-proportioned dining room can be found. Through a pair of French doors off the breakfast room is the large sitting room which enjoys an open fireplace, full height uPVC windows, French doors through to the garden room and a door back into the entrance hall. The garden room is found to the rear of the property and opens out onto a patio area, via a pair of French doors, and into the mature garden beyond. Before climbing the stairs to the first floor one passes a small study and a large double bedroom with contemporary en-suite bathroom with pedestal sink, wc and shower cubicle. The further four double bedrooms are all found on the first floor just off the spacious landing which also has the benefit of two large storage cupboards. The master bedroom is of generous proportions with full height fitted wardrobes providing ample storage, whilst a beautifully fitted en-suite boasts a free-standing roll top bath, wc, vanity unit, bidet and walk-in shower. Two of the further bedrooms also enjoy en-suite bathrooms with one having the benefit of fitted wardrobes. The final double bedroom completes the accommodation and is flooded with natural light from a Velux skylight.
Outside
Brook House sits to the front of its generous plot with a well-kept hedge running along the front boundary and encompassing the front lawn which wraps around the side of the property and opens into the mature garden to the right of the property, with a wonderfully mature Oak tree taking pride of place. Established hedging frames the rear garden with the majority of the garden laid to lawn and a charming assortment of planting and shrubbery adds colour and variety. A large gravelled drive sweeps round the far side of the property and up to the double garage, providing ample space for several cars. Beyond the drive is the outside swimming pool which is framed by timber decking and synthetic grass, whilst a timber outbuilding serves as a changing area. The garden extends to approx. two thirds of an acre in total with some gentle slopping and tiered aspects which serve for a fantastic outside space to this vast property.
