About
Set within the highly regarded village of Downham and enjoying open views across farmland to the front, this substantial detached residence offers approaching 3,000 sq ft of versatile accommodation, positioned well back from the road behind a generous carriage driveway.
Having evolved over time through significant extensions, the house now provides expansive and adaptable living space suited to modern family requirements.
A welcoming entrance hall leads to a large principal living room and a further separate sitting room sits overlooking the rear garden, offering flexibility for both formal and informal entertaining.
The standout Amdega orangery provides an impressive additional reception area, drawing in natural light and creating a strong connection to the garden.
The kitchen/breakfast room is well-proportioned and practical, and to the first floor are five/six bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en suite facilities, alongside a family bathroom.
The sixth bedroom offers flexibility as a study or dressing room if required. Externally, the carriage driveway provides extensive parking and provides a sense of arrival.
The rear garden is mature and established, with excellent privacy and a sunny, west facing aspect. A substantial village home with further potential. Kindly enquire for further information.
