3 5 2

A superbly appointed, executive, family home occupying a quiet, cul-de-sac setting in the highly desirable village of Draughton offering spacious living accommodation, unrivalled views, manicured gardens, generous parking and double garage.

Formerly the home of world-renowned golfer Colin Montgomerie, West Beech needs to be viewed first hand to fully appreciate the extent and quality of the stylish, contemporary accommodation on offer here. Over recent years our clients have undertaken a substantial programme of improvement and as can be seen from the accompanying photographs, the living space over the two storeys is of an exceptional standard. To the ground floor are four substantial reception rooms. A solid timber door opens into a porch with timber flooring, which in turn through a glazed door leads into a spacious reception hallway - an ideal environment in which to greet friends and family. One enters a large, through living dining kitchen fitted with a comprehensive range of high-quality, bespoke base and wall units having a full complement of Neff appliances. One's eyes are immediately drawn to the picture windows, which frame what can only be described as arguably the best views in the area - breathtaking, uninterrupted views over to Embsay Cragg. The charming Embsay to Bolton Abbey heritage steam railway runs along the bottom of the valley creating wonderful feelings of nostalgia, you can imagine just sitting here at any time of the year watching the weather and the world roll by, a truly calming experience. A glazed door opens onto the rear patio and garden beyond. From the kitchen a lobby gives access to the rear garden, the garage and spacious, family room again enjoying the stunning views. From the hallway stairs lead to the first floor and there is a useful cloakroom/w.c. A half-glazed door opens into a formal dining room benefitting from the views - an ideal formal entertaining space. Double doors and a further door from the hallway open into the lovely, through sitting room with central fireplace housing a multi-fuel stove and windows continue the beautiful aspect.
Return stairs to the first floor give access to a bright and spacious landing where one finds five bedrooms, the master with an en-suite bathroom and a house bathroom.
