A STUNNING, WELL CRAFTED, DETACHED COUNTRY HOUSE ENJOYING FAR REACHING SOUTHERLY VIEWS OVER ROLLING COUNTRYSDIE TOGETHER WITH A CHARMING DETACHED BARN CONVERSION, OUTBUILDINGS AND LAND EXTENDING TO THREE ACRES, IN A WONDERFUL RURAL POSITION ABOUT ONE MILE FROM AUDLEM VILLAGE DESCRIPTION Bank House is constructed of brick with part rendered elevations under a tiled roof and approached through electrically operated gates over a sweeping gravel drive to a car parking and turning area. This is a truly captivating and rare opportunity to acquire a one-of-a-kind country house - a home of high quality, complemented by a fantastic detached two bedroom barn conversion and versatile outbuildings within three acres of grounds. The key component for modern day family living is a kitchen/living/dining room and in this regard Bank House excels itself. The kitchen area by Harvest Interiors comprises a superb range of floor cupboards with granite worktops, wall cupboards, housemaids cupboard, island unit/breakfast bar and tiled flooring with underfloor heating to be found throughout the property. The room measures 43’2” x 18’5” and also features a Rangemaster Range, double integrated refrigerator and freezer and three sets of bi-folding door with internal blinds. Whilst the needs of most families will be catered for in the house itself, Bank House also has the advantage of a fabulous annexe known as Bank House Barn. This, delightful, high specification conversion extends to about 800 feet and has been successfully holiday let over the last four years producing about 25,000 per annum. The other two external features to note are the amazing far reaching rural views, which are spectacular and the land which makes Bank House an ideal home for those with equestrian or small stock keeping interests.
