A beautifully presented contemporary village home with equestrian facilities and grounds extending to around 2.5 acres
Description
Set within approximately 2.5 acres, Rutland House is an exceptional village residence occupying a delightful position on the edge of the highly sought after village of Flaxton. Finished to an impeccable standard throughout and complemented by excellent equestrian facilities, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully appointed village home that successfully combines elegant family living with an enviable rural lifestyle.
Beautifully presented throughout, this impressive home offers spacious and thoughtfully designed accommodation, ideal for growing families, complemented by a substantial garage and excellent equestrian facilities.
The property is entered via a spacious reception hall with natural stone flooring, leading through to the heart of the home, an impressive open plan kitchen, dining and family room. The bespoke kitchen is fitted with handcrafted wooden cabinetry and granite worktops, creating a timeless and practical space. Beyond, the generous dining and sitting room provide a space both living and entertaining. Two sets of French doors open directly onto the south facing gardens, allowing natural light to flood the room and creating a seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.
The elegant sitting room provides a wonderful space in which to relax, featuring detailed cornicing and an attractive fireplace as a focal point. A generously proportioned study offers an ideal environment for home working, whilst a utility room with external access and a cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
To the first floor, the delightful principal bedroom suite enjoys views over the rear gardens and benefits from a dressing area and a beautifully appointed en suite bathroom. Bedrooms two and three also benefit from en suite facilities, whilst bedroom four is served by a spacious house bathroom.
Outside, the property is approached via an electric gated driveway, providing ample parking and turning space for several vehicles, together with a double garage. The beautifully maintained gardens and grounds extend to the south of the house, extending to approximately a third of an acre and have been thoughtfully landscaped to create an attractive and private setting.
The equestrian facilities are particularly impressive, comprising a stable yard with three loose boxes and a hay barn, together with a separate potting shed providing useful storage for gardening equipment. To the rear of the property is a private lane, owned by a neighbouring property, over which Rutland House benefits from a right of access, allowing convenient access to the rear grounds and providing useful space for the storage of trailers or equestrian transport.
Beyond the formal gardens lies a paddock extending to approximately 1.7 acres of grazing land, complemented by a superb 20m x 40m riding arena, providing facilities ideally suited to those with equestrian interests.
