Snowdenham Lane, Bramley

This charming four-bedroom detached family home sits in an enviable semi-rural position within the Thorncombe Valley. With generous ground floor reception space, mature gardens and a covered swimming pool. In all 0.8 acres.

Orchard Cottage is a superb family house positioned in a peaceful yet accessible location where a private driveway with ample parking leads up to the house.

The brick-built entrance porch gives access to the main reception hallway. Leading from the hallway is a generous-sized sitting room which enjoys a view of the front garden. Leading from the sitting room is a conservatory that enjoys a sunny south-westerly aspect and doors to the rear garden.

The study/music room is partially open plan to the main reception hallway. Further along the hallway you will find the cloakroom and kitchen/dining room. The kitchen is beautifully fitted with dual tone cabinetry in a shaker style, fitted range style cooker and fitted dishwasher. Ample eye and base level units provide a significant amount of storage. The kitchen area is separated from the dining area by a breakfast bar with glass display cabinets below.

At one end of the kitchen are a wide range of floor to ceiling cabinets, larder and airing cupboard. The utility/boot room is also accessed from this area and has a doorway to the garden.

The first-floor accommodation is equally impressive. The principal bedroom suite has a terrific dressing room with fitted wardrobes and drawer units. The full en suite bathroom is of a generous size and hosts not only a large corner bath but also a separate shower cubicle. The bedroom area enjoys views to the rear across the gardens and rural landscape beyond with an equally charming outlook to the front.

Three further double bedrooms and two well-appointed family shower/bathrooms complete the first-floor accommodation.

The gardens of Orchard Cottage are simply stunning. A large south-west facing terrace adjoins the house, with a few steps leading up to the fully enclosed garden. The lawn is edged with a variety of mature flower boarders, herbaceous planting, mature shrubs, and many specimen trees. The gardens continue up to the covered swimming pool. This clever domed building has several double width sliding doors to give the inside/outside feel to the pool. A timber built outbuilding offers changing facilities.

A range of other timber-built garden stores are also found in the garden, along with a vegetable garden, greenhouse, composting area and secondary patio. The main double garage is integral to the house, with a second single garage accessible from both the rear garden and the main driveway. There is a gated side access to the front of the house.
