Overview
For discerning house buyers who wish to “get away from it all” look no further. Mullen Rhenass House is located in an idyllic rural setting within mature grounds containing lawned areas, established shrubberies, mature evergreen and deciduous trees complete with abundant wildlife including tame pheasants and the usual wild birds. The accommodation is surprisingly spacious and has undergone a programme of updating works and valuable additions to provide superb contemporary living but with a good degree of character. In addition the windows are double glazed, the oil fired central heating has had an energy efficient replacement condenser boiler, there is a comprehensive Megaflo hot water system and this is supplemented from modern fitted solar panels all connected by a passive Wi-Fi system which allows control via the internet to laptop or mobile phone etc.
The accommodation briefly comprises: wide enclosed entrance porch, snug/office, lounge, dining room, atrium style Everest uPVC double glazed conservatory, re-fitted breakfast kitchen with adjoining matching utility room, hobbies/games room, ground floor family bathroom, 5 first floor bedrooms of which 2 have en-suite shower room facilities with the master bedroom also having an en-suite dressing room and there is also a nursery bedroom/dressing room inter-connected to one of the other bedrooms. High quality fittings and finishes include Karndean flooring to most reception rooms, Villeroy & Boch sanitary ware with Hansgrohe designer chrome fittings, In-toto refitted kitchen and utility room complete with polished granite worktops to the kitchen and utility room along dispensing filtered boiling water and chilled water.
To complete this rural package there is also 25 acres of land owned by Mullen Rhenass House which is only a short walk up the lane from the property. The majority of land is suitable for horses and we understand that livery is available from Ballahimmin which is close by.
Mullen Rhenass House is approached across its own private bridge which has ornate railings and matching double gates leading onto an extensive front forecourt and additional courtyard parking from upper and lower level driveways. The lower level driveway also provides access to the integral garden machinery store to the garage block. The front forecourt parking area is ideal for guests visiting whilst the side courtyard parking area is adjacent to the substantial newly constructed detached garage block. A fenced area is adjacent to the rear of the property suitable for young children/dogs etc. Adjacent to this is a fenced vegetable garden and a detached greenhouse. A limestone chipped hardstanding area leads to a timber decked hexagonal pagoda which also has a substantial freestanding gas barbecue.
As previously mentioned the property stands within extensive mature lawned grounds which contain established shrubberies and mature evergreen and deciduous trees. There is a large ornamental lily pond containing established planting. The pond can be filled from the nearby stream from an installed submersible pump for which piping has been laid under the garden. On the edge of the pond is a timber decked sitting area and also a timber footbridge. To the upper level of the garden is a large caged poultry run with a weather proof hen house but this caged area could also be used as a soft fruit garden if required. Additional outbuildings include a summerhouse and some sheds.
