Two of the principal reception rooms, the main lounge and the dining room, are situated at the rear of the property, making the most of the lovely, south facing green garden outlook...

A natural stone fireplace holds centre stage in the lounge, giving a traditional feel and subtle cosiness, particularly in the winter months when the fire is aglow. In the summer months, floor to ceiling windows and a pair of glass sliding patio doors bring the outside in and create a bright and airy atmosphere. The room is presented in excellent condition with neutral decor, allowing you to simply move in and unpack your own furniture.

The same bright and airy feel is experienced in the dining room, where an arched feature window streams in plenty of light, and its great size affords oodles of space for a large formal dining table a lovely spot for dinner parties and hosting family and friends on special occasions.

The house is a great entertaining house that flows well and exudes charm and family atmosphere.

The heart of the home is arguably the fantastic open plan living area linked to the kitchen, which is multifunctional and exceptionally spacious, adding superb practicality to satisfy the demands of modern family life. Within the two tone Siematic kitchen, the huge island with a tastefully elevated glass breakfast bar, and a vast amount of Corian worktop space make this a particularly attractive space for casual socialising. Whether it s over your favourite bottle with friends on a Friday night, or making pancakes with the kids on Sunday morning, it s an excellent addition to an already wonderful home.

The kitchen itself is evidently of premium quality supplied and fitted by Stuart Frazer. It boasts a variety of storage areas, from wine glass cupboards to deep pan draws and fitted larder cabinets. Cooking appliances are all Miele and include a steam oven, two traditional ovens, microwave, and a five ring induction hob with matching extractor hood. The Quooker tap gives instant boiling water, and the Miele drinks fridge keeps your favourite refreshments independent of supplies in the stand alone American style Samsung fridge freezer.

Also within the open plan living area is the garden sun lounge and the breakfast informal dining area. Both these spaces are flooded with natural light and have a stylish modern design, owing to the part vaulted ceiling, Velux windows, and extensive use of glass that again provides the desirable indoor outdoor lifestyle on sunny days, where the garden and the house blend seamlessly.

Added Practicality Further to the main living spaces, Mount House also has a large home office with bespoke oak fitted furniture, another lounge area which is suitable as a snug, hobby room or playroom, and a large utility room which houses the Worcester combi boiler, plumbing and venting for the washing machine and dryer, in addition to the good amount of extra storage and worktop space it provides.

Leisure Space As well as the great amount of living space on offer, the ground floor boasts versatility and flexibility in several rooms which the owners use for leisure and entertainment. There is a home gym exercise room with its own shower room that features a fully tiled steam shower room, wash basin with storage and WC. A set of glass doors from the gym opens to another room which is currently used as a hot tub room, featuring more glass doors onto the garden to make the most of that desirable indoor outdoor living during the summer months.

On the opposite side of the ground floor is the fun cocktail bar off the lounge, which is equipped with a mood lighting system, bar, fridges, and a large drinks cabinet wall. The vaulted Velux ceiling here gives it unique character and adds to the ambience.

The Master Suite There aren t many homes which have such a comprehensive, opulent, and impressive master suite like Mount House. Off the spacious galleried landing, a corridor connects the master bedroom area, its dressing rooms and large bathroom. The bedroom itself is an extremely generous 392 sq. ft, with ample room for an en suite seating area, a range of fitted furniture and dressing table suite. Its balcony spans the full length of the bedroom and overlooks the private garden below. The two His and Hers dressing rooms both include a generous amount of storage and fitted wardrobes, whilst the master bathroom is like that found in wellness spas or premium suites of the best hotels. The bathroom is fully tiled and fitted with Villeroy & Boch sanitaryware, featuring a five piece suite that includes a supersize walk in shower with rainfall head, tiled in bath, wall mounted WC, wall mounted bidet, wash basin, plus two integrated storage units and a heated chrome feature radiator.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms With five further bedrooms making six in total, and five en suites on the first floor, as well as the potential for a seventh, even the largest of families will have a true abundance of space at Mount House. The second bedroom is presented to modern standards and like the master also features a Juliette balcony overlooking the garden below. The bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes and offer scope for modernisation in places, as does the four piece family bathroom, with bath, wash basin, WC and bidet. The upstairs sitting room with cantilever balcony is alternatively well suited for use as another bedroom, kids TV or games room, or perhaps even a second office study if there are a few people working from home. Continuing the opulent feel, the gallery landing is incredibly spacious with a balcony and bespoke downlighting.

Outside Space & Storage The long tree lined driveway affords Mount House a great deal of privacy and seclusion. A new owner may choose to fit electric gates as part of their own enhancements. The driveway approach opens onto a courtyard style drive outside the house which is comfortably large enough to accommodate a whole fleet of cars.

To the rear, the mature, sunny, south facing garden is a tranquil green haven where all one can hear is the soundtrack of the local birdsong and the subtle trickle of the waterfall feature in the wildlife pond. From the garden lounge, the French doors open onto a large sun soaked patio that s large enough and perfect for both outside dining, lounging in the sun, and socialising with family and friends. A selection of mature plants and small trees surround the pond and rockery, the huge lawn gives heaps of space for the little ones to play safely, and the super high, mature hedgerows ensure complete privacy all year round.

Mount House isn t just a beautiful home; it is a practical sanctuary with plenty of room for storage too. As well as the large integral garage and two loft spaces within the house, there is also an integrated garden store which has power, lighting, and is accessible from an external door on the other side of the pond handy for extra storage or perhaps as a workshop if dad likes to tinker.
