Description
Beech House is a substantial, individual detached house accompanied by 2 acres of garden and paddock land. Enjoying a peaceful position, the property lies within a small close of executive style country homes quietly located in the very pretty and rural hamlet of Upper Wraxall. Constructed around 16 years ago, the superb configuration offers generous room proportions ideal for family life enhanced further by the addition of a oak-finished garden room. Arranged over two floors, the accommodation extends in all to 3,324 sq.ft.
At the heart of the home lies the excellent kitchen/family room offering fashionable open plan living comprising a dining area, kitchen and the garden room. The country style fitted kitchen is equipped with an Aga, dishwasher, oven and microwave-combi oven. The stunning garden room features underfloor heating and bi-fold doors spilling out to the garden. Across from the entrance hall, there is a dual-aspect living room filled with natural light and a cosy snug off. Completing the ground floor there is a side entrance lobby with built-in storage, a utility room, and downstairs WC.
Upstairs, there are five double bedrooms in all. The principal bedroom suite is a particular feature accompanied by a dressing room, full en-suite bathroom, and a balcony overlooking the grounds. Two of the bedrooms share a Jack and Jill style en-suite shower room, whilst there is also a family bathroom.
The property is approached through timber gates leading to a gravelled forecourt providing plenty of private parking. A double garage has a useful and versatile room above with the potential to be converted into ancillary accommodation (subject to planning). The 2 acres of grounds are arranged to the rear of the house comprising a large formal garden and a paddock beyond with a small copse. The whole benefits from a great degree of privacy and adjoins open countryside for a lovely outlook. The adjacent farmland is owned by Dyson with excellent land management of only arable crops. The grounds and countryside surrounds afford an extraordinary amount of wonderful and diverse species of birdlife.
