Description
This four-bedroom home is generous, totalling, in all, 3,013 sq. ft. A charming welcoming hallway provides an inviting entrance, where original wooden doors add character and are indicative of the accommodation to come. A useful CLOAKROOM/POWDER ROOM is close to hand, and the SITTING ROOM lies ahead. In this very pleasant room, views out to the garden are through the double doors, the cosy wood-burner adding character and is perfect for the cooler months. Double doors lead to the GARDEN ROOM, which provides a good view out to the garden and offers immediate additional entertaining space via double doors to the garden and patio. The DINING ROOM stretches out from the kitchen and also has doors out to the garden and large windows drawing the natural light in. It is a fine room, which can easily accommodate a sizeable table, its tiled floor and red brick fire surround hint at the Arts and Crafts influence in design. The adjacent KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM is very much a 'country kitchen' with the Cooking Range taking centre stage. The UTILITY/BOOT ROOM is of considerable size and has a sink, plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher, and plentiful space for additional electrical appliances and coats etc. A convenient door gives access outside.
From the hallway - which also has a STUDY with pretty views out to the garden - stairs rise to the FIRST FLOOR landing, where there is access to the FOUR BEDROOMS, and FAMILY SHOWER ROOM.
The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM has a dressing area and ensuite facilities and far-reaching views out to the gardens. The remaining bedrooms comprise two double rooms with fitted wardrobes and a pretty smaller double bedroom too.
Outside
Holdfast enjoys just the most private setting, with grounds extending to approx. 1/3 of an acre offering complete privacy and including areas of grass and simple established planting. A terrace enjoys a splendid warm and sunny position.
The house itself, is set within its grounds, with a driveway leading to the house and a DOUBLE GARAGE with light and power. There is a GREENHOUSE for the gardeners and space for a chicken coup too.
