BUYERS who can't make up their mind between a modern property and one with period charm need not compromise at all with Wrenfield, a light-filled and spacious family home that ticks all the boxes.
Briefly, its accommodation comprises a double height entrance hall with floor to ceiling windows and a feature oak staircase; guest shower room with an adjacent bedroom – which could be used as an additional reception room if desired; a study, and a character-filled lounge with exposed vaulted oak beams, solid oak floor, an open fireplace housing a wood burning stove above a wood storage area, and two pairs of double wooden French doors which open onto an outside terrace entertaining area.
One of the highlights of Wrenfield is its substantial living family kitchen, which is home to generous cooking, living and dining spaces with double natural wood French windows which open onto the garden and outdoor entertaining space.
The kitchen has bespoke granite-topped wood cabinetry, an Ilve gas and electric range, a double Belfast sink, double built-in Smeg ovens and a walk-in shelved pantry. There is a large utility/boot room off the kitchen with an additional Belfast sink, wooden work surfaces and cabinetry and a trap door to an underground wine cellar. Off this room – with provides access to a double integrated garage, is a cloakroom.
Upstairs, off the galleried landing which is large enough to be used as an additional setting area and significant shelving for storage, are a family wet room with bath plus four bedrooms. Included in these is the master suite, with a vaulted ceiling with exposed oak beams, a luxury en-suite wet room with freestanding bath and a large private balcony which offers views over the private south-facing garden and surrounding open countryside.
A large boarded loft currently used for storage, could easily be made into additional living space subject to obtaining the necessary consents.
