5 bedroom detached house for sale

A substantial, modern detached house in wonderful South facing half an acre landscaped gardens, situated on this popular and sought after road within the village conservation area.Penmarric was built by the current owners for their occupation in 1978 to a lovely standard, as a bespoke commission. They have enjoyed nearly 50 years there, and have continued to improve and maintain the house since, and it is immaculately presented today. The house sits just off Hall Lane in a really good position with a wooded aspect to the front and a large, landscaped south facing lawned rear garden, the plot in all extending to just under half an acre. It boasts a wonderful, well tended private lawn with a substantial sun terrace and a number of surrounding mature trees. It overlooks open fields to the rear.The house offers great scope for an incoming purchaser to alter and extend further today, it has been really well maintained over the course of the owners’ occupation and has rooms of wonderful proportions. For instance, it would be easy to see how one could open the family room and kitchen into one large space, perhaps with a single storey extension to the rear to create that lovely open plan triple use dining/living and kitchen space that families seek today, and this would be a wonderful addition to the accommodation (subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission).The porch has double doors into a very spacious galleried reception hall - an impressive space which gives access to each of the three ground floor reception rooms and a guest WC. The main lounge is a dual aspect room with a three-quarter height bow window overlooking the rear garden and has a living flame gas fire with stone surround. The dining room sits to the front of the house and a good sized, bright and airy family room with french doors to the rear terrace has an internal door to the kitchen/breakfast room, which has been refitted with a range of hand painted style base and eye level cabinets with granite work surfaces and has a view over the rear garden. There is an adjacent utility room and a walk-in cloaks cupboard with an internal door to the double garage.At first floor level are five really good sized double bedrooms, the main bedroom with full height glazed doors leading to a covered walk-out balcony, a range of built-in wardrobes and a good sized en suite bathroom with four piece suite including a separate shower cubicle. The four remaining double bedrooms share a very large family bathroom, again with a four piece suite including a separate shower cubicle.Externally, low brick pillars give access to the tarmac driveway providing off-road parking for a number of cars and leading to the integral double garage. The lawned gardens sit to both sides of the house and extend around to the rear where there is a good sized sun terrace and a large lawn beyond.NB - We are advised a communal sewer lies to the east of the house in the garden, and it would therefore be difficult to extend in that direction. There are other opportunities that make any development a really good prospect. A plan showing the location is available at our office for interested parties.
