Beautifully presented throughout and offering an outstanding level of versatile accommodation, this impressive home combines spacious family living with a highly successful self-contained annexe, making it perfectly suited to growing families, multi-generational living or those seeking an additional income stream.
From the moment you arrive, Bay Tree House immediately impresses. Double timber gates open onto a generous paved driveway providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles, whilst the attractive wrap-around gardens create a wonderful first impression and provide a superb degree of privacy.
Stepping inside, you are welcomed by a bright entrance porch leading into a magnificent reception hallway. This impressive space sets the tone for the rest of the property and is flooded with natural light, offering the perfect spot for a reading area or home office, whilst also benefiting from useful under-stairs storage.
The beautifully appointed kitchen has been thoughtfully refitted by the current owners and is undoubtedly the heart of the home. Offering an excellent range of contemporary cabinetry, generous worktop space, integrated appliances and space for a Range-style cooker, it has been designed with both practicality and entertaining in mind. There is ample room for informal seating or a breakfast table, making it the perfect place for family life to unfold. Complementing the kitchen is a useful utility room, providing additional storage and laundry facilities whilst helping to keep the main living areas beautifully organised.
The living accommodation is equally impressive. The dual-aspect living room is an elegant and wonderfully spacious reception room, flooded with natural light and enjoying patio doors opening directly onto the gardens. This superb room offers ample space for both relaxing and entertaining and flows effortlessly into the formal dining room via an attractive archway. The dining room itself provides an excellent setting for family meals, celebrations and dinner parties, comfortably accommodating a large dining table. Completing the ground floor is a stylish cloakroom.
To the first floor, a spacious galleried landing enjoys delightful views towards the surrounding countryside and provides access to the generous bedroom accommodation.

Bedroom two is another generous double room enjoying attractive countryside views and also benefits from its own en-suite shower room.
Bedroom three is particularly special, featuring patio doors opening onto a superb tiled balcony with contemporary glazed balustrading. From here, you can enjoy far-reaching views across the beautifully maintained gardens and rolling countryside beyond, creating the perfect setting to enjoy a morning coffee or unwind as the sun begins to set.
Bedrooms four and five are both excellent-sized rooms and provide complete flexibility for growing families, guest accommodation, nurseries or dedicated home office space. These are served by a beautifully appointed four-piece family bathroom incorporating both a separate bath and shower.
A standout feature of Bay Tree House is the beautifully appointed self-contained annexe, an increasingly sought-after addition that enhances both the flexibility and long-term appeal of this exceptional home. Whether used for multi-generational living, independent accommodation for a relative, luxurious guest accommodation, a home business or studio, or continued as a thriving holiday let, the possibilities are endless.
The annexe has been thoughtfully designed to provide complete independence whilst remaining seamlessly connected to the main residence. The ground floor offers a spacious open-plan living, kitchen and dining area, creating a bright, welcoming and sociable environment. Upstairs, a generous open-plan double bedroom is complemented by a contemporary en-suite shower room, providing stylish and comfortable accommodation for family members or guests.
The current owners have enjoyed considerable success operating the annexe as a holiday let, providing an attractive supplementary income whilst maintaining the privacy of the main residence. This rare combination of an executive family home and an established income-generating opportunity makes Bay Tree House an incredibly desirable proposition for a wide range of purchasers.
Outside, the property continues to impress. The wrap-around gardens have been beautifully landscaped to create an oasis of tranquillity, offering a wonderful balance of open lawn, mature planting and carefully positioned seating areas that follow the sun throughout the day. Whether hosting summer barbecues on the generous patio terrace, watching children and pets enjoy the gardens, or simply relaxing with a book surrounded by birdsong, the outside space perfectly complements the lifestyle this outstanding home provides.
