Bickerton House is a beautifully presented property. It was constructed in 2006 and purchased by the current owners who have carried out numerous improvement projects both to the interior and the gardens and grounds. The result is a stunning home which sits comfortably in carefully designed and very well-maintained gardens.
Beyond the immediate grounds are railed paddocks and a stable block, with separate access onto the land, offering equestrian or hobby farming opportunities.
The gravel drive leads via electric gates to a parking and turning area at the front of the house and beside the garage block. The front door opens into a vestibule which in turn reveals a stunning reception hall and a bifurcated staircase with wrought iron bannisters.
The ground floor comprises spacious light rooms neatly balanced between impressive entertaining rooms and day to day living space. It incorporates high quality technology including C Bus computerised lighting and CCTV system with 14 cameras. There is underfloor heating to all the three floors and the flooring on the ground floor is in engineered light oak with porcelain tiles in the kitchen, utility room and office.
Double doors from the hall open into a drawing room with a fireplace and French windows opening onto the garden patio.
At this end of the house is also a library and cloakroom and the drawing room also links to an orangery/family room. Beyond is a recently upgraded kitchen with a central granite island and an excellent range of fitted storage units with high quality fittings including Miele appliances. Double doors lead out, onto a composite wooden terrace. A laundry/boot room and office complete the ground floor accommodation.
