Inside

Welcome to Brookfield, an enchantingly located house in an elevated position overlooking water meadows towards open countryside and woods at the rear: the perfect place to watch the sun rise and simply enjoy the quiet pleasures in life. Part of a warm and embracing community, Tolpuddle is a special village in which to live.

Constructed in 2006, it was bought as new by the current owners who immediately fell in love with the extraordinary view and south-facing position. Over the years, the interiors have been stylishly updated and the result is a beautifully presented, extremely light, family home.

The accommodation, with solid oak flooring, is approached by an enclosed PORCH with useful fitted cupboard. The HALLWAY provides plentiful space for greeting guests and there are enticing glimpses of the view beyond. An understairs cupboard provides handy storage. A GUEST CLOAKROOM lies to one side and has a modern contemporary suite providing a WC and wash-hand basin. Adjacent to this is an additional RECEPTION ROOM which could suit a variety of uses, be it a playroom, music room or additional guest bedroom; French doors give access to the garden beyond. A separate STUDY lies adjacent and both these rooms could easily be made as one if required. Within the study a large built-in cupboard houses the boiler and immersion tank. To the rear the SITTING ROOM is a wonderfully light room with mesmerising views of the water meadows and countryside beyond. With French doors to two sides, it has dual access to the extensive terrace which creates a wonderful space for entertaining. In the cooler months, there is a cosy wood burner within the inglenook fireplace. Definitely a room for all seasons!

The KITCHEN/DINING ROOM has a natural stone floor supplied by Mandarin, with underfloor heating which beautifully offsets the hand-built cabinets which provide considerable storage and incorporate attractive display units. It is a handsome room which is both practical, but equally stylish for entertaining with French doors leading out to the terrace for outside dining in the warmer months. On a practical note, appliances include an integrated dishwasher, washing machine and Rangemaster dual fuel cooker fitted within an ‘inglenook’, reflecting an overall country theme. An internal door gives easy access to the adjacent garage where there is a utility area at the rear complete with space for a tumble dryer.

Stairs rise from the hallway to the FIRST FLOOR where the windowed landing is bright and airy. A door leads to the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM where the vaulted ceiling and extensive picture window creates a wonderful sense of space and light. One cannot help but be drawn to the heady views of the water meadows and from this elevated position, they are truly enthralling. The perfect room to enjoy the sun rising. This room also has an ENSUITE SHOWER ROOM with underfloor heating, double shower, WC and wash-hand basin. The REMAINING THREE BEDROOMS are all double rooms. Bedroom Two has a door to the loft area over the garage: ideal as an extensive walk-in wardrobe, or, subject to any permissions required, potential perhaps for a further bathroom. The MAIN BATHROOM has also been beautifully modernised with ceramic tiled floor which has underfloor heating, offsetting the bath with central taps, vanity unit with overhang wash-hand basin, close coupled WC and walk-in double shower. A window from the bath takes full advantage of the view.

Outside

The whole plot measures approx. 0.183 acres. The smart resin driveway provides space for several vehicles and also leads to the SINGLE GARAGE, which has an electrically operated door, and rear personal door to the terrace. It also has a utility area with sink, and space for a tumble dryer. An internal door leads into the kitchen. There is a gated side access to the rear garden. An extensive terrace is a particular feature of the house as it undoubtedly offers the best vantage point and from where you can see for some distance across the water meadows beyond. Being south-facing it is extremely sunny, but is also very sheltered. The gardens stretch down to the winterbourne stream at the bottom, and along the way there are various seating areas designed to enjoy the outlook from different times of the day. There is also a raised vegetable area. It is a truly delightful area from which to enjoy this special spot.
