Description

Situated in the sought-after village of Great Glen, this beautifully and thoughtfully restored four-bedroom detached property perfectly balances historical charm and modern day comfort. Built circa 1700 and having Grade II listed status, this home offers a peaceful retreat in a convenient village setting. The property is presented and maintained to a superb standard throughout and includes all the features you would expect from a property of this age, and more recent additions such as an AGA and multi-fuel burners to the reception rooms.
The accommodation comprises a central entrance hallway that leads to the ground and first floor living accommodation. The dual aspect living, dining, kitchen area is an inviting space that lies at the heart of this lovely home, complimented by two reception rooms and a garden room that provide flexible living accommodation and a comfortable space to relax and entertain.
To the first floor are four generously proportioned bedrooms including a master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, whilst a refitted shower room serves the remaining bedrooms.
Outside, there is a landscaped west-facing walled garden that features a paved patio with a raised koi pond – ideal for enjoying the outdoors in privacy. A lawned garden with established planting leads to a second paved terrace with an orangery that provides the perfect setting for outdoor entertaining. Electric gates lead to a gravelled driveway that provides secure off-road parking for several vehicles and leads to a double carport, part of which is currently sectioned off to create a storage space for gardening equipment but could easily be reverted to provide cover for two vehicles.
