Yaxley Road, Mellis, IP23 8DP

Set back from the road, approached via a long drive and electric gates sits this substantial, individual 5 bedroom house set in just under one third of an acre.

This tremendous setting has fields adjoining across which views towards Thornham can be enjoyed.

Hunters Moon has for many years been the family home of the current owners during which time the house was enlarged beyond that built by its original builder/owner.

Extending to a little over 2800 square feet, the house offers extensive living space and presents an imposing presence upon arrival.

The property represents an ideal opportunity to create a statement home worthy of these current times following selective updating.

The internal layout includes two well-proportioned reception rooms along with kitchen breakfast room and study, all off a central initial reception hall.

Upstairs, an undeniably large master bedroom has an equally roomy en suite bathroom with shower along with a balcony taking full advantage of the southerly views.

It is preceded by a fitted out Dressing Room complete with floor to ceiling wardrobes. Each of the remaining four bedrooms are all double in nature with Bedroom 2 being en suite with shower room.

Integral to the design of the house is the double garage along with an office and utility room.

Outside, the driveway provides parking for numerous vehicles and being l'shape in design, allows for parking of cars to be tucked away to one side so as to not spoil the approach to the house via the electric gates.
