Set in the heart of a thriving village, this is a home that understands family life. School transport collects and returns children directly from the village, easing the morning routine, while a well-stocked village shop, traditional butcher and lively village hall sit at the centre of a close-knit community with a calendar full of events.

The house itself has been sympathetically extended to create substantial, flexible living space. Outside, there is off-road parking, an attached garage and the rare benefit of front-to-rear access, ideal for gardeners, cyclists and practical minds alike.

Inside, quality is immediately apparent. Bespoke woodwork features throughout, from ledge-and-brace doors with wrought-iron latches to built-in wardrobes and crafted storage. The entrance hall is finished with flagstone flooring, while a staircase with carpet runners and classic stair rods adds quiet elegance.

The principal reception room is warm and inviting, with French doors opening to the rear garden and an inglenook fireplace housing a wood-burning stove. A tucked-away office sits just off this room, ideal for home working without isolation. The dining room, with its own stove and solid oak flooring, offers a more intimate setting.

To the rear, the dining kitchen forms the sociable heart of the home, while a well-appointed ground-floor shower room completes the layout.

This is a home with substance and permanence. Built for family life, it offers not just space, but a way of living.
