At the front of the property there is the first of three reception rooms, currently laid out as the formal dining room, which boasts a feature fireplace, high ceilings and a large bay window to the front. Just off of the dining room is a multi-purpose room which currently is used as a craft room, however in previous years it has been an occasional bedroom or fourth reception room. Back across the hallway is the second of the reception rooms, being a delightful breakfast room which is a wonderfully bright room and boasts a feature decorative traditional bread oven alongside useful fitted storage cupboards. Next is the gorgeous kitchen which lives up to its name as a the heart of the home, having been fitted to a very high standard with modern wall and base units, breakfast bar and integrated appliances including two eye-level ovens, five-ring gas hob, fridge and a dishwasher. An opening leads from the kitchen through to a sizeable utility room which provides space for washing machine, tumble dryer and a free-standing fridge/freezer. Double doors also lead from the utility room directly into the rear garden. Adjacent to the breakfast room is a rear lobby space which the current owners use as their main entrance. This lobby boasts a large storage cupboard and door to the side of the property. Double doors lead into a room with a real wow-factor; the impressive living room. Previously a dance studio for a former owner, the living room is a large space with room for an abundance of sizeable furniture and is perfect for entertaining. With feature parquet flooring, a wood-burning stove and double doors leading directly into the rear garden, this room really does have it all. Taking the stairs to the first floor, a central landing space gives access to the accommodation on this level, including four double bedrooms, modern family bathroom and a separate modern shower room. One of these bedrooms has been converted into a large dressing area with an opening to the master bedroom, creating a truly excellent master suite. A second staircase then rises to the converted loft space which is currently set up as a second home office, however could have a multitude of uses and provides access to the attic space.
