Description
A substantial five-bedroom family home, constructed with beautiful locally quarried stone and finished to a high specification. This impressive property offers spacious open-plan living areas, private gardens, off-road parking, and garaging, all set within a select development in the historic village of Barleythorpe.
Accommodation - The spacious ground floor opens into a welcoming entrance hall, leading to a generous open-plan living kitchen with a walk-in pantry. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, this expansive space features bi-folding doors that open onto the garden, flooding the interior with natural light and creating a seamless connection between indoors and out. From the kitchen, a door leads to the main reception room, which also enjoys direct garden access through another set of bi-folding doors. Together, these areas form an exceptional, sociable living environment perfectly suited to modern family life. Practicality has been carefully considered, with a large utility/boot room providing access to the integral garage. There will be a useful study with a window overlooking the rear garden and a cloakroom completing the ground floor.
Upstairs, the first floor offers five generously proportioned double bedrooms, all fitted with built-in wardrobes. The primary bedroom suite is particularly impressive, extending to approximately 350 sq. ft., and includes a spacious bedroom area, a dressing room/walk-in wardrobe, and an ensuite bathroom. One further bedroom benefits from an ensuite shower room, while the remaining three bedrooms share a family bathroom.
This exceptional home strikes the perfect balance between luxury, functionality, and energy efficiency, thoughtfully designed to meet the demands of modern living while providing the warmth and character expected of a high-quality family home.
Outside - To the front of the property, a gate opens onto a large private driveway with ample off-road parking and direct access to the triple garage.
