"Barcroft occupies a wonderfully elevated position on Lyncombe Vale Road, opposite Lyncombe Hall and enjoys beautiful open views. The property has been in the same ownership for 35 years, was built in the 1960's and sympathetically extended in the 1990's. The generously proportioned, flexible family accommodation which is in excellent decorative order throughout is arranged over 3 floors.

On the ground floor there is a newly fitted contemporary kitchen/family room which has a charming leafy aspect and a pretty sitting room which is linked to a conservatory, dining room and well-fitted office area. There is also a large boot room which has access to the front. On the first floor there is a beautiful double aspect master bedroom which has a large en suite shower room and access on to a pretty roof terrace which enjoys the wonderful views. In addition there are 2 further bedrooms and a large family bathroom, along with a utility room which also houses the boiler and laundry. The upper floor has 2 large double bedrooms and another bathroom and can be conveniently closed off given the separate door and staircase.

The property is beautifully positioned in well-manicured gardens which wrap around the house with a lovely stone water feature, level lawn and west facing sun terrace which is accessed from the conservatory. Steps rise up to an impressive recently terraced garden which has a wealth of mature shrubs and trees. Positioned centrally within the terrace is a charming Millennium stone semi-circular seating area from which the beautiful views can be enjoyed. There is also a productive vegetable and fruit garden with Blueberries and Red Currants and a garden store.

Steps lead down from the front of the property to a large double garage and off street parking for 3 cars.
