Upon entering, the spacious L-shaped hall welcomes you, setting the tone for the home’s inviting atmosphere.

To the left, you’ll find a bright and airy dual-aspect lounge with a striking carved wood fireplace as its centrepiece. French doors open onto the rear terrace, bringing the outdoors in. Adjacent to the lounge is a cosy snug, ideal for relaxing, which leads to a unique study or fifth bedroom with an en suite shower room, perfect as a self-contained annex or a private retreat.

The dining room, just off the kitchen and breakfast area, is a light-filled space with French doors opening onto the garden and a large skylight that floods the room with natural light. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring a range cooker, sleek white cabinetry, and durable work surfaces, with integrated appliances like a dishwasher and freezer. The adjacent utility room ensures everything has its place and adds to the home’s practicality.

Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to a modern family bathroom and four generously sized double bedrooms, each offering beautiful rural views. One bedroom includes built-in wardrobes, another offers dual-aspect views, while the main bedroom is a luxurious retreat with a walk-in wardrobe/dressing room and an en suite shower room.

The expansive rear garden is a true haven, mostly laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs, and backs onto peaceful paddocks. The wraparound terrace is ideal for entertaining, while a potting shed and storage shed provide practical outdoor solutions. A detached summer house/workshop adds a touch of versatility—it’s fully insulated, with electricity and lighting, making it perfect for a creative studio, hobby space, or a quiet getaway.

This home truly offers the best of both worlds: modern luxury and the serene beauty of country living. Please call Miles and Barr to arrange all viewings.
