Property description

North Densome House is a truly stunning country home with over 3000 sq. ft. of exceptionally appointed and designed accommodation constructed approximately 5 ½ years ago, set amidst enchanting gardens and grounds of nearly 4 acres, which have themselves been transformed by the owners.   

Holding an elevated and commanding position, this contemporary home has been individually designed to take full advantage of extraordinary views across its own land. The rooms are of excellent proportions and provide sophisticated and elegant accommodation over four floors. The main reception rooms offer a comfortable mix of formality and informality boasting many characterful features to include attractive architraving, cornices, luxury en-suite facilities to all bedrooms and vaulted ceilings with exposed beams. The bedrooms are well balanced and sizeable to offer a high degree of flexibility for modern family living.   

The layout is carefully designed with the Kitchen/Breakfast Room, Utility Room, Dining Room and Plant Room on the lower ground floor providing direct access to the gardens and grounds. The ground floor then offer a glorious formal Drawing Room with French doors leading to an entertaining terrace, Library/Study and En-Suite Guest Bedroom all with commanding views of the grounds. More sleeping accommodation is then split over the next two floors with the magnificent Master Suite found on a half landing and boasting a beautifully appointed En-Suite, Dressing Room and walk-in wardrobe.

Properties of this calibre are rarely available, and a viewing would afford those wishing to combine the benefits of rural living whilst being able to access all the amenities of a thriving village.
