Astley Cooper Place, Brooke

SUMMARY

Set within a cul-de-sac in the popular village of Brooke, the property is a substantial detached home offering an outstanding balance of space, versatility and sustainability. The ground floor centres around a beautifully proportioned kitchen/diner, created by combining the original dining room and utility area into one expansive family space with direct garden access. The former kitchen now provides a versatile study, while the impressive dual aspect lounge stretches over 26' and enjoys a bay window to the front and French doors to the rear.

Upstairs, 5 bedrooms branch from the landing, with 4 comfortable doubles and a 5th bedroom currently used as a study. A contemporary family bathroom is complemented by a separate shower room, making busy family mornings effortless. Further benefits include a utility/storage area and excellent broadband connectivity.

What truly sets this home apart is its remarkable energy efficiency. A large solar array, extensive battery storage system, air source heat pump, EV charging points and excellent insulation combine to create an exceptionally economical property, with the current owners advising that utility, heating and vehicle costs can be significantly reduced.

Offering contemporary family living, remarkably low running costs and uninterrupted rural views, this is a home that truly stands apart from the ordinary.

OUTSIDE

This substantial home enjoys an enviable position at the very end of the close and backing directly onto open countryside. To the front, a driveway provides side-by-side parking alongside the integral garage, with an attractive lawned frontage and mature apple tree softening the approach. 2 EV charging points are installed, complementing the property's impressive eco credentials.

The rear garden has been thoughtfully designed to maximise both privacy and the beautiful outlook beyond. Predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by mature hedging, shrubs and fencing, the space enjoys an exceptional sense of seclusion with no immediate rear neighbours. A generous patio spans the rear elevation, creating the perfect setting for entertaining, al fresco dining or simply unwinding while taking in the surrounding fields, while a raised decked seating area tucked into the corner of the garden offers an additional spot to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Abundant wildlife and birdsong contribute to the tranquil atmosphere, making the garden feel like a private retreat throughout the seasons.
