Description
Built by the current vendors during 2019, Highfields is a wonderfully spacious four double bedroom modern and energy efficient house in an elevated position within the popular and accessible village of Parham. Being a self-build property, Highfields was designed and finished to the vendors own requirements, resulting in a wonderfully light house of nearly 2,600 sq. ft in all and with the addition of the cart lodge nearly 2,900 sq. ft in all. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, 21’ sitting room, 24’ open-plan kitchen and dining room, snug/study and cloakroom on the ground floor, together with a principal bedroom with dressing room and en-suite shower room, guest bedroom with en-suite bathroom, two further double bedrooms and a large bath/shower room on the first floor.
The superb, open-plan kitchen and dining room is undoubtedly the ‘heart’ of the house, and provides a wonderful, multi functioning room that links wonderfully well with the landscaped, terrace garden at the rear. The sitting room offers a more formal reception room, that benefits from French doors which open onto the rear patio and garden, whilst there is also the snug, that could be utilised as a study if required.
All of the first floor bedrooms are of very good sizes, and the dressing room and en-suite shower room that serve the principle bedroom, together with the family bathroom, are all generous in their proportions. The two bedrooms that do not have en-suite facilities do, however, benefit from built-in storage facilities.
Outside
The gardens and grounds have been landscaped, with a block paved driveway for the parking and turning of several vehicles, together with a double cart lodge that incorporates a secure storage area.
The rear garden is delightful, and facing in a westerly direction enjoys the sun during the second half of the day and into the evening. This comprises a substantial patio area with terraced borders containing a variety of specimen flowers and shrubs, together with steps leading up to a lawn with a decked seating area that has fantastic views to the east, across the top of the house towards the open countryside beyond.
