Berkham Ridge, a spacious and light-filled residence originally constructed in the 1960s, has since undergone significant extensions and enhancements. The current owner has taken notable strides in improving the property's energy efficiency, including the addition of an electric car charging point, cavity wall insulation, and solar panels. These solar panels yield approximately £2,500 annually, paid back to the homeowner in quarterly instalments and indexed for another 12 years. They also provide free electricity throughout the property and to the swimming pool.
Spanning an impressive 2,261 square feet, the accommodation offers versatility, with the potential for a self-contained annex. The ground floor encompasses a welcoming reception hall, a stylish sitting room boasting a stone open fireplace, a generously proportioned dining room, a versatile fifth bedroom or study, and a substantial kitchen/breakfast room featuring a range of eye and base level John Lewis units. Additional conveniences on this level include a utility room, cloakroom, conservatory, two spacious ground-floor double bedrooms, and a convenient shower room. The first floor is home to a fabulous principal bedroom suite with a dressing room and full en-suite bathroom, along with a second double bedroom and a separate shower room.
Outside
Berkham Ridge enjoys a private setting well set back from the road within its own grounds, extending over approximately one-third of an acre. A tarmac driveway offers ample parking space and provides access to an attached garage, with side access leading to the rear garden. The substantial rear garden is a tranquil oasis, featuring scenic views across open fields. The garden is primarily laid to lawn and boasts a generous walled patio area with outdoor lighting adjacent to the house. Within the garden, a well-insulated and soundproofed garden room offers versatility and can serve as a home office or entertainment space.
At the rear of the garden, a heated swimming pool, powered by an air source heat pump and boasting a new liner installed in October 2022, is complemented by an ample patio area and a changing room with WC and shower. The outdoor amenities also include a koi carp pond with a water feature, a greenhouse, a garden shed, and additional storage located at the rear of the garage. This property offers a harmonious blend of spacious living, energy efficiency, and outdoor enjoyment in a picturesque setting.
