Ground Floor

Entering the property through the main central doorway into the spacious inner hallway, giving access to the ground floor rooms and the first-floor staircase. Receptions rooms are found both to the left and right and bring multiple uses to them. A downstairs WC and under-stairs storage are useful additions.

The spacious kitchen area has all the facilities one would expect in this type of home and has room for further potential. A further separate utility room completes the ground floor, also giving access to the side of the home.

SELLER INSIGHT

Beautifully positioned on the edge of the sought-after village of Doveridge is Meadow View, a large and extremely attractive five-bedroom family home that boasts substantial gardens both front and back. “The house was built by a local developer back in 2007,” says the owner. “He actually designed it for himself, so the overall quality is outstanding, but his circumstances changed and so he decided to sell it instead, and therefore I was lucky enough to be able to buy it from new.”

“In terms of what attracted me to it, there were a whole host of things: It’s rather unique in terms of its design, so there’s nothing else like it in the local area, and it’s beautifully positioned in a very peaceful spot on the edge of the village. It’s set way back from the road, which is very quiet, and it backs onto a pretty meadow – hence the name – so the outlook is just lovely. It’s a place where one can enjoy a superb degree of peace and privacy, and yet I’ve never felt isolated. It takes just a few of minutes to walk to the paper shop in the village, and for everything else I can drive a couple of miles down the road into the lovely market town of .”

“In terms of the house itself, internally there’s lots of space for a growing family especially with teenagers or having guests staying in comfort and the layout has been designed extremely well. The hub of the home is one huge open-plan kitchen-and-living space that runs right the way across the back of the house, which is ideal because while dinner is cooking, the children can be playing at the other end of the room and there are two sets of French doors so everyday life can spill out onto the patio. There’s also a separate good-sized dining room and a lounge at the front with a wood burner, so that’s a very cosy space when it’s cold and miserable outside and of course, all of the bedrooms are also really nicely proportioned.”

“There’s also a vast amount of space outside,” continues the owner. “The house sits on a very generous plot so I have a huge front garden and ample parking for numerous cars, and to the rear I have a lovely big open lawn, a large patio, plus I’ve planted a number of fruit trees and also created a little kitchen garden so not only is it very pretty, but it’s also really quite productive. I love the fact that I can come home, shut the front gate and feel totally away from it all. Security is important for me and the gates and remote access CCTV provide a good balance of simple security in what is already a very safe village.”

“The open-plan room is a fabulous space for the family, but my favourite would probably be the front lounge. When it’s cold outside I can sit in front of the wood burner, cosy and warm, watching TV… On a winter’s evening there’s nowhere I’d rather be, surrounded by family in the comfort of the lounge.”

“Doveridge is a real hidden gem. There are lots of beautiful homes in the village, including some rather charming painted cottages so it’s all very pretty. When I walk down for my paper on a sunny morning there’s almost a holiday atmosphere so I could be forgiven for thinking I’m in a pretty village in Cornwall or Devon. It’s also a really friendly place; everyone says, ‘hello’ as you pass them by.”

“The house was beautifully designed and built, and all to an extremely high standard, but during my time here I’ve done a lot to enhance it further. I’ve added solar panels on the garage roof, which make the house more economical to run; I’ve installed lots of low energy external lighting, CCTV and improved the drainage in the gardens both front and back, and I’ve also added a lovely little summerhouse.”

“What will I miss when I move? Absolutely everything,” says the owner. “The house is just too big for me now, but I’ve thoroughly enjoyed every minute of my time here.”*
