This stunning living area seamlessly connects to the garden through two tri-folding doors that open onto the side terrace, creating a perfect indoor-outdoor flow. French doors at the rear of the room provide another entrance to the beautifully landscaped rear garden.
As you enter the older section of the cottage, you will discover a charming snug with a beautiful inglenook fireplace, complete with a wood-burning stove, flagstone hearth, beamed ceiling, and surround sound system. The adjacent downstairs bedroom, with its own entrance from the front of the property, boasts an ensuite bathroom featuring a luxurious roll-top bath.
Descend into the basement to find a state-of-the-art cinema room, soundproofed and equipped with Dolby Atmos technology. The projector, amplifier, and subwoofers can be included in the sale through separate negotiation.
Located on the first floor are four bedrooms, one of which offers space for an en-suite bathroom that has been partially converted with a vaulted ceiling and exposed brickwork. The front bedrooms provide a stunning view of the sunrise. Additionally, there is a luxurious family bathroom that services the other three bedrooms. The landing is bright and airy, thanks to the four Velux windows, and also features a convenient linen cupboard.
Outside
The property can be accessed via a gravel driveway that offers ample off-road parking for several vehicles in addition to the attached garage which could also be a studio. Additionally, there is a convenient wood store and raised bed located at the front of the property. The garden surrounds the house, with the main garden situated at the rear and side.
A spacious deck extends from the kitchen living space, providing a lovely outdoor area to relax. The deck overlooks a small pond and a well-maintained lawned area. The rear of the property features a larger lawn with beautifully planted beds, mature trees, and hedging. An outdoor sauna and office are also located on the property.
At the end of the garden, there is a shed; however, it is currently outside the property's registered title, as indicated below. The property borders Woodland owned by Christchurch College, and a portion of the garden extends beyond the current registered title. Discussions are underway regarding a boundary agreement involving all parties.
