Description

The Accommodation

In detail the property comprises a part-glazed main entrance door opens into a central hallway, where a staircase ascends gracefully to the first floor. To the left is a dual aspect reception room which boasts exposed ceiling timbers, a charming feature fireplace with an open fire and French doors opening into the garden room. The garden room, a later yet sympathetic addition, features natural stone flooring with underfloor heating, a bespoke handmade media unit, a vaulted ceiling, and French doors that open seamlessly onto the rear patio and garden.From the hallway, there is also access to the cellar, a convenient cloakroom, and the kitchen. To the right, the snug provides a cosy retreat with stripped wood flooring, exposed ceiling timbers, front-facing views, and a redbrick fireplace with an inset wood burner. Double doors lead from the snug into the formal dining room.

The kitchen/breakfast room is a superb space, featuring high ceilings and the continuation of the stripped wood flooring. It has been fitted with bespoke wall and base units, a central island with granite work surfaces, an Aga, and integrated appliances. A small adjoining hallway provides access to a separate utility room and boot room, which benefits from direct access to the driveway.

A gracefully turned staircase leads to a bright first-floor landing, which includes a cosy seating area and doors to the stunning principal bedroom. This dual-aspect room features a vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers on both walls and ceiling, and continues the stripped wood flooring, creating a warm and inviting space. Steps rise to a Jack and Jill cloakroom, which also provides access back to the landing. From the landing, a door opens into bedroom two—another beautifully appointed room with high ceilings and charming garden views. Steps descend from here to a Jack and Jill bathroom with a separate shower, which connects to Bedroom three, complete with a side-facing window, dressing area, and built-in wardrobes.  Bedroom four is positioned at the front of the house, offering a generously proportioned double room filled with character. A spacious family bathroom, including separate shower facilities, completes the accommodation on this floor.

Outside

To the side of the property, a set of electrically operated gates opens onto a smartly paved driveway, providing access to the rear garden, a detached garage, and further parking. 

Adjoining the garage is a private entrance leading to a staircase that rises to a versatile studio or home office—ideal for those seeking separate work or creative space.

The rear garden is a particularly attractive feature: beautifully private and predominantly laid to lawn, it is framed by a variety of mature trees, well-stocked flower beds, and established shrubs. A stream meanders along the bottom of the garden, adding to the sense of tranquillity. Immediately to the rear of the house, a generous paved terrace provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.
