The property
Crofters Lodge is an attractive family home constructed in 2006 offering more than 2,200 sq. ft. of light-filled flexible accommodation arranged over two floors. Configured to provide an ideal family and entertaining space maximising the far-reaching views over neighbouring countryside, the ground floor accommodation flows from a welcoming part-double height reception hall with wooden flooring, galleried landing over and modern cloakroom. It comprises a large 23 ft. rear aspect reception room with feature fireplace and French doors to the rear terrace, and two further well-proportioned reception rooms, currently used as dining and family rooms, the latter with a modern wall-mounted fire. To the rear is a spacious kitchen with a range of contemporary wall and base units incorporating a large central island with breakfast bar and two built in freezer units, complementary contrasting worktops and splashbacks, modern integrated appliances and a neighbouring fitted utility room with a door to the side aspect.

On the first floor is a generous principal bedroom with French doors to a private decked balcony enjoying panoramic countryside views, fitted dressing room and modern en suite bathroom, and an additional double bedroom with built-in storage and modern en suite shower room. Two further well-proportioned double bedrooms and a contemporary family shower room with fully tiled high-end walkin shower and quality fitments complete the facilities.

Outside
Set behind a walled front garden, the property is approached through high double electric wooden gates with intercom doorbell/entry system, over a low maintenance lawned and gravelled front garden. A block-paved side and front driveway offers private parking for several vehicles and gives access to the detached double garage. The garage benefits from internal stairs rising to a generous first floor, suitable for a variety of uses including as an office or annexe, if required. Accessed through two attractive lockable metal gates to either side of the property, the well-maintained rear garden is laid mainly to gently sloping lawn interspersed with low-maintenance gravelled beds and bordered by mature shrubs and features a split-level decked seating area and a generous part-covered paved terrace, both ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining and enjoying far-reaching views over neighbouring countryside.
