This individual detached house occupies an enviable elevated location above New Mill with pleasant views over its generous gardens and beyond. The property has been tastefully extended and modernised in recent years combining quality modern fittings with more traditional features. It enjoys spacious well-presented accommodation which includes a superb open plan living / dining kitchen and 4 good sized bedrooms.
Overview
This individually designed detached house originally dates back to the 1930s and is of traditional stone and half rendered construction under an attractive rosemary tiled roof. It has been extended to two elevations and features accommodation that is larger than first expected. The property sits within generous grounds with extensive lawns and generous parking.
The day to day entrance to the house is via a porch area accessed from the driveway. At either side of this entrance area there is a downstairs wc and a good sized utility room. A further door leads into the main hallway which features cloaks storage area, staircase to the first floor and a further side entrance door to the gardens. Each of the downstairs rooms can be accessed from here.
The standout room is the magnificent open plan living room and dining kitchen. The living room area features a chimney breast with log burning stove and glazed double doors opening to the garden and enjoying the views. Wood flooring runs through into the open plan dining kitchen area. This is fitted with a wonderful Tom Howley kitchen with composite worksurfaces and an island unit.
The ground floor also features a separate living room with bay window enjoying the views and a fireplace with multifuel stove. There is also a study – being the perfect space for working from home.
Upstairs, the landing area features an original wooden handrail around the stairwell. The principal bedroom suite is simply one of the best that we have seen in a property of this value. It is a good sized double room with a recessed walk in wardrobe area, fitted out with wardrobes, cupboards and drawers. There is also a large walk in dressing room with built in rail and a door leading through to the stunning en-suite bathroom which has a free standing bath, separate shower and large vanity washbasin.
There are 3 further bedrooms, all are of a good size and are able to accommodate double beds. They are served by a house bathroom and separate wc. The property is well maintained and presented to an excellent specification with quality fittings throughout. It has a gas central heating system and sealed unit double glazed windows throughout.
In recent times, the grounds surrounding the house have been the subject of a high quality development with 3 quality homes built in front of the house – the design and terrain of the site is such that views are retained over the rooftops of these houses. A further detached house is in the course of construction on the opposite side of the driveway.
Three Valleys has its own private driveway, off the driveway for the development. This provides generous parking and access to the integral garage. There is an ornamental garden area above the driveway and alongside Cold Hill Lane. Further larger gardens are to be found on the lower side of the house and driveway, these feature lawns and paved seating areas.
