A Truly Enviable Lifestyle Awaits
Set in the heart of the Elham Valley's rolling hills, Usan is a unique and elegant residence offering spacious living, breathtaking views, and immediate move-in convenience with no onward chain. This substantial 4-bedroom detached family home combines character, craftsmanship, and scope for future potential - all nestled within approximately 1.2 acres of landscaped gardens, entertainment terraces, and private woodland.

Approached via a sweeping horseshoe driveway encircling a manicured front lawn, the home's impressive brick exterior makes a grand first impression, with ample parking and a sense of privacy and space throughout.

Craftsmanship and Comfort in Every Detail
Step through the oak storm porch into a warm, parquet-floored entrance hall, setting the tone for the quality found throughout the home.

The generous double-aspect dining room features French doors opening onto the garden and flows seamlessly into a bright living room with additional French doors leading to the raised front terrace. A fireplace with a gas-fired wood-burning stove creates the perfect setting for cosy evenings or elegant entertaining.

At the heart of the home, the bespoke “Thoroughly Wood” kitchen offers handcrafted cabinetry, quality fittings, and a built-in breakfast area. Adjacent is a cleverly designed bootility room, combining utility and practicality with space for white goods, a sink, and ample storage.

Bedrooms with Views, Luxury and Storage
Upstairs, the landing leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms:

• Bedroom One is a true sanctuary, enjoying magnificent valley views, built-in wardrobes, and a luxuriously appointed walk-in wardrobe, fully fitted with custom woodwork by “Thoroughly Wood”, together with a stylish en suite shower room/WC.
• Bedroom Two also benefits from an en suite shower room/WC.
• Bedrooms Three and Four both feature built-in wardrobes, with Bedroom Three also offering useful eaves storage.
• A family bathroom and separate WC complete the upper floor.

Exceptional Gardens, Entertaining Areas and Future Potential
The gardens at Usan are every bit as impressive as the interior.

To the front, the expansive horseshoe driveway surrounds a central lawn, offering ample parking and access to a detached garage via a five-bar gate.

To the rear, you'll discover a beautifully arranged series of sun terraces, decked entertaining spaces, and a raised barbecue terrace with balustrade, all taking full advantage of the glorious Elham Valley views.

The elevated decked area houses an inset hot tub and swimming pool (currently requiring refurbishment) - a fantastic opportunity to reinstate a luxury leisure zone or reinvent the space as a stylish outdoor entertaining hub.

A large cabin at the rear offers flexible accommodation, currently including a sink with mixer tap, shower room/WC, and a storage area - ideal as a home office, studio, or guest retreat.

Beyond, the sweeping lawn extends to a peaceful woodland area, offering privacy, nature, and tranquillity. There is potential to explore planning permission and even purchase adjoining land to create access or develop an additional dwelling (STPP), presenting exciting long-term opportunities.
