ACCOMMODATION
The house was originally built in 1580 and much of its Tudor charm remains. It was extended in Victorian times and again more recently and now combines exceptional character with practical and generous accommodation throughout.

The ground floor begins with an elegant lobby with a vaulted stair case. The Tudor parts of the house are accessible from here and include a stunning double aspect dining hall with imposing fireplace and exposed beams. The living room is a large space with triple aspect windows and plenty of characterful features including a huge fireplace with original bread oven. These two reception rooms are connected by their own communicating lobby. Off the main entrance hall is a guest w.c. along with plenty of storage options for coats and shoes. The kitchen was built in Victorian times. It has been well equipped for modern requirements and include a central island with 5-burner gas hob, triple oven and built in appliances. There is a separate fridge freezer room and an additional large pantry. From the kitchen, the 'tradesmen' entrance leads to the driveway and front of the garage. A flight of stairs leads up to the sitting room, a bright room with glazed French doors on to the garden. A second set of stairs rises to the final reception space. This is an exceptionally spacious double reception room, perfect for a home office or study. It could also be used a sixth bedroom. It has patio doors to the raised terrace, giving it its own entrance, if required. Finally, there is a utility room located off the garage, which also includes a door to the garden and a fitted shower room.

Upstairs, the bedroom accommodation is split over two floors. There are five double bedrooms and family bathroom with a separate w.c. The main bedroom benefits from an ensuite bath and sink as well as double aspect windows. The two first floor guest bedrooms also include a traditional sink. The second floor bedrooms stretch into the eaves and offer fabulous views over the town and beyond.

The property is 'chocolate box' pretty and reached via a private drive shared with just two other properties. Parking can be in the double garage with electric up and over door or the space in front. At the rear, the gardens wrap around the house, creating various private spaces. There is a lower terrace which can be accessed via the living room and has steps up to the pool area.
