Description - A well-proportioned family home with rendered elevations beneath a tiled roof situated in this excellent village location. This property offers generous and versatile accommodation, particularly to the ground floor where the heart of the house is an impressive L-shaped open-plan kitchen/dining room opening to a courtyard garden.

The main entrance is approached from the driveway, with a glazed front door flanked by side windows that fill the space with natural light. This opens into a practical boot room, complete with a fitted bench and cupboards beneath, providing excellent storage. From here, doors lead to the kitchen/dining room and to the utility room - formerly the garage, now a large utility space with excellent storage.

The kitchen/dining room is a standout feature: spacious, bright, and sociable. French doors open onto a private courtyard garden, while multiple windows ensure a sunny aspect throughout the day. The kitchen is well fitted with a range of wall and base units, integrated fridge-freezer and dishwasher, and space for a range cooker with bottled gas connection. From here, doors lead to both the study and the sitting room.

The sitting room is a welcoming space, featuring a brick fireplace, fitted shelving, and a front-facing window. It opens into the front hallway, which provides a secondary entrance to the house, along with a cloakroom.

A staircase rises from the front hallway to the first-floor landing, giving access to four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a light-filled dual-aspect double with built-in wardrobes and French doors opening onto a superb large balcony measuring a wonderful space for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The second bedroom is another generous double with built-in wardrobes, front-facing window, and an en-suite shower room . The third bedroom is also a double with built-in wardrobes and a front aspect, while the fourth bedroom, a single, enjoys views across the balcony. The family bathroom completes the accommodation.

Outside - The property is set back from the lane, approached via a shingle driveway that provides off-road parking for two to three vehicles. This leads to a south-east facing sandstone patio, creating a pleasant seating area. From the kitchen/dining room, French doors open to a courtyard garden, also laid with sandstone, which flows through to the main garden at the front of the house.
