A handsome and beautifully appointed individual detached family house standing close to the heart of the village in landscaped grounds of about a quarter of an acre. The house is believed to date from 1932 and has been sensitively extended and improved to provide a bright and spacious village home. The well-appointed and versatile living accommodation is ideally suited for a family and includes a sitting room, dining room and adjoining library with double doors opening out to the rear garden. The house has a number of characterful features including fireplaces with wood burning stoves to the sitting room and dining room. The property also has the considerable benefit of a second sitting room/playroom. Importantly, there is also a very useful and flexible home office/hobby room. The generous accommodation is complemented by a large kitchen / breakfast room with a glass lantern and double doors opening out to the garden. The kitchen is fitted with a range of cabinets, pan drawers, integrated dishwasher, larder cupboard and a 6-ring gas range. The addition of a fixed glass roof over the adjoining area of decking has created a perfect outdoor dining area. Of note, the ground floor accommodation also includes a shower room and utility / boot room. There are four well-proportioned bedrooms with an en suite shower room to the principal bedroom and a family bathroom to the first floor.

The garden is a very special feature of the house with a variety of areas of interest.
