The current owners of this delightful, charming, and charismatic property have lovingly maintained their home to a high standard throughout whilst respecting and accommodating many of its original features. The house is positioned on a plot of approximately 0.6 acres with unobstructed views of farmland to the front, side and rear. The character and style of this property captivates as soon as you step into the entrance hall, with its original hand-crafted doors and custom-designed stained-glass window inserts which bring natural sunlight in; the spacious accommodation consists of:

An entrance hallway with three doors; firstly, to the left, a ground floor bedroom with a large window, making this a bright and airy double bedroom, to the right, a relaxing lounge area with a multi-fuel stove, offering the perfect place to seek comfort and relaxation of an evening. From here double doors open to the large, timber framed conservatory facing East, South, and West; a room of ample space and light where you can entertain friends and family whilst taking in views of the garden. LED lights in the windowsills impart a soft warm glow during the evening. A second set of double doors open through to the kitchen, which boasts several eye-level and base units, butler sink, plumbing and space for utilities and an Aga ‘Dual’ electric oven; this is a kitchen perfect for baking your favourite cakes or cooking food for your family and friends.

The third door in the entrance hall leads into the internal hallway, or dining room. This gives access to a multi-function room which could be used as a fifth bedroom, pantry, or office. Next door to this room, there is a ground floor family bathroom with its original fixtures. The rear stable door opens to a covered passageway perfect for additional storage; from here, a door opens to a timber-constructed, insulated outbuilding, which is currently fitted out as an office space, perfect for those who work from home, but who want to maintain separation between work and family life.

On the first floor, the landing area has a large storage space in the eaves, accessible by two sets of hand-crafted doors. From here you access all three first floor good-sized bedrooms, with two of the bedrooms having en-suite facilities.

Outside, the property is approached via an in/out driveway, offering a large amount of off-road parking for numerous vehicles.
