ACCOMMODATION - Ground Floor
With just under 3,000 sq ft of accommodation, Oriel House has spacious and well-proportioned rooms on three floors. The hub of the home is the kitchen/breakfast room fitted with high gloss cabinets, Corian worksurfaces, Miele appliances including an induction hob, two full size ovens, microwave, steam oven, two warming drawers, two large fridge/freezers and two Siemens dishwashers and a Quooker boiling water tap. There is a large central island with breakfast bar and bi-fold doors from the family room to the terrace and garden. There is also a utility room and a larder. To the front of the property is a study and a cloakroom and shower room which could be used as additional en-suite guest accommodation. From the family room, an open ballustraded staircase leads to a galleried landing and the main sitting room, a lovely light room with a wood burning stove, windows to the front and back and French windows to the terrace and garden.
ACCOMMODATION - First floor
On the landing is an unusual Oriel window, after which the house is named, a type of bay window often found in classical architecture. On the first floor, the master bedroom is a superb triple aspect room, with fitted wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite shower room. The guest room also has fitted cupboards and an en-suite bathroom. There are two further bedrooms and a family bathroom with freestanding bath and a separate shower cubicle.
OUTSIDE
The property is approached from the private, unmade road via a gravel driveway leading to a parking area. The front garden is planted with shrubs and hedges giving privacy and seclusion. A gate leads to the back garden which is mainly laid to lawn and is again very private.
