Description
Livingroom is privileged to offer this magnificent six-bedroom family home to the market as Sole Agent. Elevated above Kings Mills and West coast beaches, whilst immersed in the epitome of Guernsey countryside, Silver Sixpence is a rarely found gem. Discreetly located behind electric gates and mature planting, you may never have noticed this handsome house before yet once within the grounds, you become aware of the marriage between an imposing West-facing Victorian Villa and a carefully conceived farmhouse barn extension that softens the house into the landscape with great success, creating a peaceful and private courtyard and connection to the gardens. The climbing roses and verdant planting guide you towards the two storey glazed entrance with beautiful views over the grounds, pool, kitchen garden and meadow. The kitchen, at the heart of the house is the epitome of family living supported by an adjacent utility/boot-room; a great entrance for children, dogs and shopping to be decanted. The ground floor continues to a dining room, study/lobby, cloakroom and vast double reception - spanning the entire width of the original house. No family member is forgotten, there’s even a gated area/kennel to ensure your beloved dog lives in the lap of luxury. The first floor is a triumph for family living with study, four en-suite bedrooms (including a large primary suite) all situated off the same landing whilst two staircases then offer the ideal next generation of life with two further en-suite bedrooms/reception spaces as required - including one with vaulted ceilings and stunning, exposed beams. These rooms offer privacy and flexibility for older children, a home office, guest suite, games room, cinema - the choice is yours. The surrounding grounds continue the feeling of abundant space with 2.45 acres of both domestic and agricultural land. The South-West entertaining terrace (accessed directly from the kitchen) leads to the swimming pool and further to a kitchen garden and formal garden bounded with pear, apricot, peach and kiwi trees - in addition to mature raspberry, artichoke, fennel plants and various herbs. Meandering paths lead to a large, level area that suggests the ideal venue for a marquee, family celebrations or a variety of sports or activities. Beyond is a gorgeous and highly private orchard with historic apple, pear and quince trees and a mature meadow bustling with insects and flora and fauna - all subtly bounded by fencing that surrounds the entire perimeter of the property. The entrance courtyard offers an oak framed car-port for three vehicles and further storage room, extensive parking and sheltered seating areas. Silver Sixpence is an inspiring and beautifully appointed home seeking its next chapter. Internal viewing essential.
