The Property
Apple Tree House
Apple Tree House is one of a handful of prestigious family homes
recently constructed in the grounds of this former country hall.
The development is exclusive and sought after which is apparent due
to the excellently maintained appearance of the communal gardens. A
wrought iron gate leads on to a block paved drive in turn leading
up to the main entrance to the dwelling. The front door leads into
a pleasant reception hallway central to the accommodation on the
ground floor, to the left is a stunning formal reception room with
deep bay window to the rear and French doors leading out on to the
terraced patio beyond. The focal point of this room is a large cut
stone fire place with living flame gas fire. To the right of the
hallway is an impressive breakfasting kitchen providing a range of
base and wall mounted storage units topped in granite concealing a
full range of appliances together with a free standing, plumbed
American style fridge freezer. The room is L shaped and provides a
spacious area for informal dining. Off the kitchen is a utility
room providing further work surfaces and storage cupboards together
with space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble drier.
Double doors open in to a generous dining room with a deep bay
window matching that of the master reception room. This too has
French doors which open out into the beautiful rear garden and
patio. Central to the property is a good sized study ideal for
those wishing to work from home. The ground floor is mainly laid to
a solid oak flooring with the exception of the kitchen breakfast
room which is laid in a neutral ceramic tile. From the hallway a
staircase rises to the first floor where there is a galleried
landing area. The second reception room of equal proportions to
that of the ground floor, provides a more informal family room,
though is flexible, and could be used as a large bedroom suite, and
again is complemented by a cut stone fireplace housing a living
flame gas fire. To the far end French doors open out on to a
balcony from which to enjoy the views over the surrounding
countryside. To the rear of the property is the smallest of the six
bedrooms, though this is still of excellent proportions and
accommodates a king size bed and furniture with comfort, the
landing area leads round to provide access to the master suite,
this benefits from a separate walk in dressing room fully fitted
wardrobes to one wall together with a luxurious, neutral stone
effect tiled en suite comprising double shower, WC and pedestal
wash hand basin. Again from this bedroom French doors open out on
to a balcony overlooking the garden. The passage leads round
providing access to a family bathroom and into the guest suite
which is a second large double bedroom with south and west facing
windows meaning it is filled with natural sunshine throughout the
day and on into the evening, this room is complemented again with
an en suite shower room with WC and pedestal wash hand basin.
Moving to the second floor, the galleried landing provides access
to a large bedroom to either hand set within the eaves. Both rooms
feature seating areas situated in the dorma windows taking in
stunning views to the rear of the property. The right hand of the
two bedrooms is again complemented by an en suite shower room with
WC and pedestal wash hand basin.

French doors in the reception rooms lead out on to. There is a
raised lawn here bounded by flower beds and the original brick wall
