Description
This exceptional and unique former Station House was constructed in the mid 1800's, providing accommodation to the Station Master before the trainline was decommissioned. The property occupies a private, edge of village position with spacious, private gardens, from which there are attractive and far reaching countryside views.
Approached via a private driveway, lined with a mixture of mature trees, the driveway arrives to the front of Station House, which provides parking for several vehicles and access to the property via the front door.
Lower Ground Floor
The current owners use the back door for every day use, which is accessible via the side stairs. Glass panelled doors open into a welcoming rear entrance hall, complete with exposed brick flooring. Leading straight into the kitchen/dining room, this fantastic space provides a ‘hub of the home’ room which has ample space for a informal dining table for everyday living. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall units, complete with a Rangemaster oven and space for standalone appliances.
This area has been opened up by the current owners, to lead into a cosy snug, complete with an exposed brick, feature fireplace and useful storage room currently used as a playroom. French doors open onto the terrace, providing the perfect spot for alfresco dining and entertaining.
Accessed via French doors, the sensational orangery provides a spaciously-proportioned reception room, enjoying the far reaching rural views over neighbouring farmland. This 2015 addition is used by the current owners as a formal dining room and sitting room with French doors opening onto a wraparound terrace, providing a fantastic flowing space for family life and entertaining. Completing the lower-ground floor is a spacious utility room which provides additional storage and space for appliances, and a downstairs W.C.
Ground Floor:
Stairs ascend from the Lower Ground Floor's rear hallway to the ground floor, where the current owners have exposed the original timber floorboards. The original front door to the house provides a secondary access to the driveway, whilst the floor also provides the principal bedroom, a spacious home office and a formal sitting room.
The principal bedroom occupies the rear of the property, enjoying the sensational rural views. The bedroom is well-proportioned and flooded with natural light, complete with built in storage, whilst the en suite bathroom is stylishly appointed, with a roll topped bath, separate shower and Burlington sink and sanitary wear, with a heated towel rail.
The office has a fitted suite, that provides ample work and storage space, with fitted units, including above the fireplace. However, this room could also adapt into an additional bedroom, or playroom, to meet buyers' requirements.
Completing the ground floor, the formal sitting room, offers a more intimate and cosy space from which to relax, or to enjoy the views over the garden. The original fireplace provides a centre point for the room, complete with further fitted storage.
