Description

Knoll House is a well-presented modern detached family residence offering versatile and generously proportioned accommodation, set within a substantial plot in a desirable village location.

Currently arranged as a five-bedroom principal home with an adjoining self-contained two-bedroom annexe, the property offers excellent flexibility and could be seamlessly reconfigured into one expansive dwelling, if desired.

The main house is thoughtfully designed to maximise its southerly aspect, with principal living spaces oriented to the rear to take full advantage of the outstanding views across the village and towards the rolling hills beyond. The open-plan kitchen/family/breakfast room forms the heart of the home—ideal for everyday living and entertaining—while a series of inviting reception rooms lead off, including a cosy living room with a large open fireplace. A fifth bedroom is positioned at the far end of the ground floor, adjacent to a luxurious shower room, offering potential for guest accommodation or a home office.

A central stair hall, located beside a practical boot room, rises to the first floor where four well-proportioned bedrooms enjoy elevated views and ample natural light.

The adjoining annexe benefits from its own private entrance and offers a welcoming reception hall, a well-appointed kitchen to the front, and a spacious living area to the rear with a large window overlooking the garden and countryside beyond. Upstairs, there are two generous bedrooms and a family bathroom, along with excellent storage throughout.

Externally, the property is approached via metal double gates set into a high stone wall, opening onto a tarmac driveway with ample parking and access to a double garage. The gardens are a particular highlight—extensive and south-facing, they wrap around the property and back onto open fields, providing a tranquil and private setting with breath taking views.

Knoll House presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and adaptable home in a picturesque setting, with scope for further extension and enhancement, subject to the necessary consents.
