* Viewing by Appointment 10am- 2pm - Saturday 8th February Constructed to a particularly high standard in 2020 and offering contemporary style accommodation, this magnificent two storey, five bedroomed country residence offers everything one would expect from an individually designed new home with real touches of class and elegance. Almost the whole of the ground floor has traditional Cotswold limestone flooring creating a partially open plan area which flows naturally from the kitchen through the central dining area to a welcoming snug with an elevated real fire and south facing patio doors. The whole of the ground floor has under floor heating with separate heating controls. There is a conventional radiator central heating system on the first floor. The kitchen has natural granite worktops. All units by Laura Ashley with integrated Neff and Rangemaster appliances. All rooms have solid, medium oak stained doors infusing their own character and at first floor level, there are en-suite facilities to the two main bedrooms, complementing the stylish family bathroom, all of which have rain shower heads and hand held sprays. Externally the property has a large driveway with off street parking for around four vehicles in addition to a double garage over which there is a studio/fifth occasional bedroom suitable for a variety of uses with its own en-suite washroom. The piece-de-resistance however is the rear courtyard designed for summer entertaining with doors opening from the kitchen and the snug to an area that would take the largest of dining tables and with a lions head fountain from which the property takes its name. The elevated rear garden contains natural screening of mature trees. The property is protected with large oak remote controlled gates with an intercom system in the house and therefore making it as safe as possible. The property is also covered with a build zone warranty.
