A fantastic opportunity to purchase a spacious and tastefully appointed brick and pantiled former threshing barn which offers an excellent level of versatile accommodation occupying what is a pleasant, established, gated plot that extends to in excess of 0.3 of a acre.

This delightful home boasts two well proportioned reception areas encompassing an impressive central hallway with split level staircase rising to a galleried landing above and full high vaulted ceiling, flooded with light with the glazed threshing barn opening overlooking the garden. In addition there are five bedrooms, two with ensuite facilities, and separate main shower room all of which have been tastefully updated, combining both traditional and modern elements.

The kitchen is an attractive feature of the property, being of generous proportions and beautifully appointed with a range of built in units finished in heritage style colours with quartz preparation surfaces and integrated appliances including a Quooker boiling tap. The majority of the rooms offer their own elements of character with exposed beams and timbers and attractive fireplaces which combine to create a wonderful family home within this small hamlet setting. As well as the main accommodation the former garage has been converted to create an initial storage area which links through into a spacious boot room/utility but, for those requiring garage space, this would potentially be relatively straightforward to convert back.

The property occupies a delightful plot screened from the road behind and established hedge frontage with electric gates leading onto a substantial parking area providing more than adequate off road car standing. This in turn leads out onto a mainly lawned garden which offers an excellent degree of privacy and catches the majority of the day's sun.

Overall viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
