Description
Occupying a superb elevated position at the far end of an exclusive cul-de-sac on sought-after Tickenham Hill, Il Sogno is a substantial detached family home enjoying wonderful views, exceptional privacy and beautifully established gardens. Approached via a gated driveway, the property immediately conveys a sense of exclusivity and seclusion, with ample parking, a double garage and mature landscaping combining to create a striking first impression.

Stepping through the front door, a welcoming entrance hall forms the heart of the home and provides access to the principal reception rooms. To one side, the generous living room is a wonderfully light-filled space extending to over 21 feet in length, with ample room for both formal and informal seating arranged around a feature fireplace. Large windows capture attractive views across the garden and surrounding landscape, while doors lead into the superb 19'1 conservatory. Flooded with natural light, this exceptional space spans much of the rear elevation and enjoys delightful views over the gardens, creating a wonderful setting for relaxing, entertaining or simply enjoying the changing seasons. The conservatory provides a seamless connection between the principal accommodation and the beautiful outdoor space beyond.

Returning to the hall, the formal dining room offers an elegant setting for family meals and entertaining, conveniently positioned adjacent to the well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room. Undoubtedly the hub of the home, this impressive room extends to over 22 feet in length and features extensive cabinetry, generous preparation space and ample room for everyday dining. A separate utility room keeps the practical aspects of family life neatly tucked away. Completing the ground floor is a cloakroom off the hall as well as in the garage.

The first floor continues the theme of generous proportions. The principal bedroom enjoys a peaceful outlook and benefits from en suite facilities, creating a private retreat away from the main living spaces. Three further bedrooms, one with en suite are all excellent doubles, offering well-balanced accommodation for families of all ages, while the fifth bedroom can equally serve as a dressing room or office if required. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, with many of the rooms enjoying attractive views over the gardens and surrounding countryside.

Outside, the gardens have clearly been nurtured and enjoyed over many years. Expanses of lawn are complemented by mature shrubs, established trees and colourful planting, providing year-round interest and a high degree of privacy. There are numerous areas in which to sit and enjoy the tranquil setting, together with a greenhouse, summer house and garden shed. Beneath the conservatory, an extensive undercroft offers valuable storage. The substantial double garage and generous driveway parking further enhance the practicality of this impressive home.
