Description
The house is deceptively spacious and has been extended to the rear, offering about 1800 sq ft of space over two floors. The layout is very versatile, with four reception rooms offering plenty of scope for home offices, snugs, children’s play rooms or an occasional bedroom – there are two formal spaces in the original part of the house, a sitting room to the rear and a dining room off the stylish farmhouse-style kitchen, which has a coveted AGA and a good amount of storage. The ground floor also has a side entrance onto a utility area, which leads to a kitchen and a bathroom. Upstairs the split-level landing opens to a principal bedroom with a balcony overlooking the rear garden, two further bedrooms and a shower room.
To the rear of the garage there is a self-contained annexe, perfect for older children, an au pair or as a holiday let. It comprises a good size sitting room lit from above by a fabulous roof lantern, a kitchen, bedroom and en suite bathroom.
Outside
The outside has been as well cared for as the interiors, with the house set in gorgeous, well established gardens featuring a host of plant and tree varieties. The property feels feels very private, with a small front garden set behind a high hedge and a picket fence, and a gated entrance opening to a gravel driveway and the detached garage gated entrance opening to a gravel driveway and the detached garage and office. The rear garden is an excellent size and is laid mostly to lawn, with a traditional brick terrace around the house for garden furniture and a separate decking area under a pergola. The garden looks out over unspoilt countryside, with far reaching views.
