Rivendell Pages.indd 5 01/07/2015 13:03 vendor “The house was about 5 years old when we first saw it,”remembers Elaine, and from the outset we were impressed by its charm and also by its location. Being stone-built, the house blended naturally into its setting, encompassed by trees and with lawns on three sides., and having both a large secure garden and spacious rooms, it seemed the perfect place to bring up our family. The schools have proved to be excellent and we’ve been here now for around 20 years.” Rivendell Pages.indd 6 01/07/2015 13:03 “The house grew with the family, In 2005, we extended to the rear, increasing the size of the kitchen and by going up a deck we added a fourth bedroom with an en suite shower room above. insight At the same time, we constructed a single storey utility room to the side. We used reclaimed local stone so that the extensions matched the house exactly. Four years later we built a south facing orangery to the rear, adding an extensive patio to provide plenty of space for entertaining, barbecues and sitting out.” Rivendell Pages.indd 7 01/07/2015 13:03 Rivendell Pages.indd 8 01/07/2015 13:03 “The orangery and rear patio look out towards Brow Grains Dike on the southern boundary, which has small waterfall; we enjoy the restful sound of the water and watching the variety of wildlife that the water attracts. It is a wonderful space in which to relax, read, paint or simply just enjoy a coffee” Rivendell Pages.indd 9 01/07/2015 13:03 Rivendell Pages.indd 10 01/07/2015 13:03 “Other improvements have been the refurbishment of the two en suite shower rooms, the family bathroom and the ground floor cloakroom,” says Elaine. “We also upgraded the kitchen work surfaces to granite and refurbished the utility room with tiled work surfaces and a Belfast sink. The lounge has a lovely large open inglenook fireplace with a flagstone hearth in which we installed a multi-fuel burning stove; we also added a feature fireplace with a gas stove to the dining room. Other recent improvements have included re-carpeting throughout and installing a new boiler. Rivendell is in an excellent location, a 5 minute walk and we are within easy reach of all Meltham’s many amenities, which also includes a golf club.
