The home is situated just outside West Linton and boasts a truly tranquil location, with wonderful open views from most windows. As well as its peaceful location, the house lies within easy reach of charming West Linton and its reliable village amenities, as well as road links connecting across the county and further afield.
Entrance – A welcoming entrance to a delightful home
A quiet tarmac track, which was formerly a railway line, leads from the main road along to the driveway of White Moss, where the home’s front door opens into a practical, spacious porch with built-in storage. From here, a door leads through to an airy reception hall with plenty of space for furniture items and a wealth of built-in storage, including a large airing cupboard.
Reception rooms – Spacious areas in which to relax and entertain
The home has multiple spacious and versatile reception rooms, allowing the new owner to configure them to their own requirements and ideal for both family life and entertaining alike. The living room occupies a generous footprint and is illuminated by dual-aspect glazing capturing wonderful natural light throughout the day and framing lovely views of the garden and beyond. The room is adjoined by a snug area, perfect for display items, a study/reading nook, or a children’s play area, and it is connected to a fabulous sunroom. Here, a wealth of glazing allows natural light to flood in and French doors afford access to a deck in the rear garden, seamlessly connecting the house to the outdoors. 
The formal dining room presents the perfect setting for sit-down meals, family gatherings, and dinner parties, with ample space for at least an eight-seater table alongside additional furniture. The room has been extended by the current owner to include a box window, which now bathes the space in natural light and creates a wonderfully light and airy ambience. 
Perhaps one of the most impressive rooms in the house is the magnificent drawing room on the first floor, which is perfectly positioned to enjoy far-reaching views encompassing the garden and its wealth of tall mature trees, the land beyond, and the hills in the distance – undoubtedly breathtaking as the landscape changes throughout the seasons. The room is filled with natural light through triple-aspect windows, and a fireplace surrounds a warming log-burning stove, creating an ideal focal point around which furniture can be arranged. 
Breakfasting kitchen – A well-equipped cooking zone with a casual eating area
The kitchen (by Wren Kitchens) was fitted in 2017 and comes well-appointed with a wide range of wall and base cabinets, as well as a central island, and spacious quartz worktops. Neatly integrated appliances comprise twin Neff combination ovens, a warming drawer, a five-ring Neff induction hob with an extractor hood, a Bosch fridge/freezer, and an AEG dishwasher. A fitted table, attached to the island, creates a perfect space for enjoying morning coffee, casual weeknight meals, and socialising while cooking, and the kitchen is supplemented by a spacious utility room with additional cabinetry and workspace and space for laundry appliances (as well as an additional fridge/freezer). The utility room is adjoined by a boot room with a shower room (ideal for rinsing off after muddy winter walks) which affords access to a practical rear porch with space for coat and shoe storage and a door leading out the garden. 
The kitchen is also adjoined by a good-sized study, perfect for those requiring a quiet space to work or study from home. 
Bedrooms – Five versatile and tranquil bedrooms, ensuring a peaceful night’s rest
The home boasts five well-proportioned and airy double bedrooms, with three on the ground floor and two on the first floor. The ground-floor bedrooms offer excellent flexibility and options for use, and two are accompanied by built-in storage, with one also featuring a charming window seat. Two of the bedrooms here also share a Jack-and-Jill en-suite bathroom. The two first-floor bedrooms are approached via a staircase and a wonderfully spacious landing with a study area and a large linen cupboard. Both triple-aspect rooms occupy particularly generous footprints, with ample space for bedroom furniture and lounge areas if desired, as well as being accompanied by walk-in wardrobes/dressing rooms and eaves storage. The principal bedroom has the additional benefit of an en-suite shower room, whilst the other neighbours the first-floor shower room. 
Bathrooms – Five well-appointed washrooms, perfect for family life
The ground-floor Jack-and-Jill en-suite bathroom comprises a bath with an overhead shower and a glazed screen, a wall-hung basin, a WC, and a tall towel radiator. The utility room’s shower room comes complete with a corner shower enclosure, a WC-suite, and a towel radiator, whilst a four-piece family bathroom completes the ground-floor washrooms, replete with a freestanding bathtub, a large shower enclosure, a WC-suite set into vanity storage, and a chrome towel radiator. Upstairs, the principal bedroom’s en-suite comprises a corner shower cubicle, a basin set into a vanity storage unit, and a WC, and the final shower room is equipped with a shower enclosure and a WC-suite. 
The home is kept warm by a combination of oil and LPG-fired central heating (with the Worcester gas boiler replaced in 2017), and the windows are all double glazed. 
Gardens, land, and parking – Delightful, mature gardens, acres of protected land, and excellent private parking
The home is set in approximately 45 acres of land. This includes about an acre for the house and its lovely gardens, two paddocks occupying about an acre and a half combined, with the rest of the land consisting of extensive peat bogs, which is all protected land that can’t be built on and is a local biodiversity site. 
The gardens are beautifully maintained, with spacious, well-kept lawns, a wealth of mature, tall trees, leafy shrubbery, and planting, two characterful follies, and several decked areas for outdoor dining furniture and summer barbecues. The gardens will undoubtedly keep those with green fingers very happy and busy throughout the year, and the outdoor space is sure to appeal to those with children and animals. The paddocks (one with a stable) create an exciting opportunity to keep various types of animals, with the current owners having had a diverse range over the years, including rescue donkeys, ducks, and ponies, offering a unique and exciting lifestyle opportunity. There is also a large outbuilding offering extensive storage/workspace. 
To the front of the house, a large driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles. 
Extras: All fitted floor coverings, window coverings (except selected curtains), light fittings (one current light fitting will be replaced with a different one), and integrated kitchen appliances will be included in the sale.
