Description
A most attractive detached country house located in an idyllic rural setting, with stunning rural views towards Mayfield village and church. The beautifully presented property is unlisted and has been sympathetically refurbished to retain all the period character, yet blending perfectly with modern day convenience such as underfloor heating in the kitchen as well as the en suite and family bathrooms.
The well-proportioned reception rooms include a useful home office/study, a TV room and a sitting room with French doors to the rear terrace and gardens. There is also an impressive living room with a magnificent inglenook fireplace. The fabulous kitchen/dining room has a vaulted ceiling, modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, central island and a Range cooker. It also benefits from large French doors leading out to the lawned gardens and floor to ceiling windows affording amazing views to Mayfield village and church.
From the kitchen, stairs lead up to a first floor family room with vaulted ceiling. There is also a useful utility/laundry room to the rear of the house.
On the first floor, the spacious principal bedroom is double aspect and has a well-appointed en suite shower room. There are three further good sized bedrooms, overlooking the front, as well as a family bathroom and a shower room. All bedrooms have views over the garden and fields towards the village.
Outside, the house is approached over a driveway leading to the detached double garage. Stairs lead up to a first floor studio/office. To the rear of the house, there is a paved terrace with steps leading down to the lawned gardens which include various seating areas and mature trees and shrubs. The gardens lead on to low maintenance fields and in all the property extends to about 12.16 acres.
There is a public footpath across fields (just outside the property’s boundary), leading to the village.
