This individually designed home sits prominently down a herringbone design block paviour drive offering parking for a dozen or so vehicles.

The colour washed rendered elevations are offset by Anthracite coloured double glazing all under slate roof. Behind the front door you are greeted by a most welcoming 16' reception hall, with under stair storage, and from here you get a glimpse and understanding of what owning Allacott House is all about as the straight run of stairs with glass balustrades leads up to the first floor and the honey oak doors with contemporary satin door handles, that lead you into the rooms.

The drawing room is fine 20' double aspect room benefitting from the South easterly sun, sliding doors overlooking and opening onto the terrace and grounds and, a feature fireplace with a 'Rais' log burner sat upon a slate hearth under a Derbyshire stone lintel.

Across the hall is one of the real wow factors of the house being a 30' triple aspect kitchen/breakfast/dining/family room again with sliding doors leading out on to the extensive terracing being an ideal place for al fresco dining or to just sit and enjoy the surroundings. Along one wall is found a super sleek 'Charlton and Jenrick' modern electric fire featuring real flame technology and LED mood lighting controllable via a handset.

At the opposite end of the room is the bespoke designed 'Sheraton' handleless kitchen which is in slate grey with contrasting quartz work tops offering an extensive range of floor, drawer and wall units with concealed lighting and soft close hinges and oversized central island with breakfast bar area.

Found within the kitchen is an induction hob with ceiling extractor and mood lighting above, double ovens, fridge/freezer, dish washer, wine fridges and recycling drawers. Leading off the kitchen is a good sized utility room again fitted with 'Sheraton' units, with concealed lighting including tall larder style cupboards with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. Doors lead to the stylish cloakroom, the garage and outside.

The first floor landing, having access to the loft area, is bathed in natural light having large windows on two sides and the glass balustrades adding to the feel of space and airiness.

The double aspect 17' main bedroom suite is a palatial room, with a walk in dressing room/closet, floor to ceiling doors on one side with Juliet balcony giving a lovely outlook across the lawns to the woodland beyond. The en suite is stylishly finished having a twin headed shower, wash hand basin with waterfall spout above a vanity unit, close coupled WC and heated towel rails.

The second suite again a double has an equally well equipped en suite shower room. The remaining two bedrooms are both double aspect one being some 18' in length. Rounding off the accommodation is the well proportioned family bathroom which comprises a double ended free standing bath with floor mounted bathroom taps with hand held shower attachment, a large corner shower with twin shower heads and along one wall in part is found a set of bathroom cabinetry with inset wash hand basin with waterfall tap. Twin heated towel rails complete the room.

Outside
As previously mentioned there is an extensive parking area, with double garage which has an electric up and over door and plant room set to one side.

A number of external power points and external water taps are found around the house.

Grounds
Without doubt these play a major role in the life to be enjoyed by owning such a property and around the house on two sides is extensive terracing in slate grey which compliments the external elevations and provides for ample areas to entertain or to just sit and soak up the surroundings.

Sweeping away from the house the lawn leads down to a wonderful woodland studded with mature trees and this area provides a wonderful haven for wildlife and in one corner is found the remains of a former swimming pool, previouslypart of the Shebbear College facilities. A small stream forms the boundary on one side of the grounds whilst at the front terraced natural stone curve walling with extensive gravel beds provide a blank canvas to create what the new owner requires.

All in all, a home of this quality and stature does not often come to the market and having planning could provide for something even more exceptional.
