General Description
Enjoying a picturesque setting surrounded by open countryside and nestled within breathtaking gardens, Castle House in the tranquil village of Ceres presents a superb opportunity for peaceful rural living. With its charming mid-terrace stone-built façade, the front door opens into a welcoming entrance vestibule and hallway. To the right, a generously proportioned dual-aspect living and dining room awaits, bright, inviting, and seamlessly connected to the kitchen and the east-facing rear garden via chic French doors. This space exudes a rustic yet refined ambience, with handsome wooden flooring, a cast iron fireplace set within an oak mantle, built-in shelving, and a warm colour palette. The bespoke kitchen with exposed brickwork is thoughtfully designed, separated from the dining area by a peninsula counter that doubles as a breakfast bar perfect for casual dining or morning coffee. Aesthetically appealing, the kitchen features dark blue base cabinetry with gold-effect hardware and sleek white marble-effect worktops. High-spec integrated appliances include a five-ring gas hob set into a central island with a ceiling-mounted extractor hood and an eye-level double oven. A separate utility room and a well-appointed guest WC lie just beyond. To the front of the property, a versatile and sizeable playroom provides excellent flexibility ideal as a comfortable double bedroom or additional living area. Upstairs, accessed via the original staircase, the large principal double bedroom enjoys abundant natural light and features wooden flooring and an open fireplace. Two further bedrooms offer versatility for family life or working from home, one currently arranged as a study. A true highlight is the luxurious family bathroom. Framed by panoramic countryside views, it provides a serene sanctuary complete with a freestanding bath, a black grid walk-in shower enclosure, a countertop washbasin, WC, and towel radiator.
