A very versatile and attractive property with further scope if required.
This property would suit a range of buyers as it has bedrooms and a bathroom on the ground floor, but it also extends to the first floor and there is potential for more accommodation upstairs if desired. The gardens are private, and the setting is very quiet.
Accommodation
The front door opens to a welcoming central hallway, the accommodation radiates from here. To the left is a generous sitting room with log burning stove and a dual aspect. This leads to a dining room, which is open to a sunroom with French doors to the rear garden. On the left of the dining room is a conservatory which is a recent addition, it is heated so you can enjoy it throughout the year.
The kitchen has fitted units with space for a tumble dryer, washing machine, fridge/freezer, and cooker. There is an attractive view over the rear garden and space for a breakfast table and chairs. A large airing cupboard accommodates the boiler and has shelving for linen.
A door opens to a utility room which has space for a washing machine and an external door leads out from here to the garden.

Stairs rise from the study to the first floor where there are 2 further bedrooms, one has a sink, the other has a shower room with w.c..
A door leads to a loft space which could easily be converted into accommodation plus there is significant eaves storage in the bedroom.
Outside
The house feels connected with the community and yet enjoys great privacy. Surrounded by mature hedging, shrubs and trees the gardens wrap around the house, giving a sense that you are enveloped by nature.
Both the front and back gardens are enclosed, perfect for dogs and children. A gate opens at the rear to a sliver of land that runs along the river. This is part of the garden and could be embraced as a feature if desired.
There is parking for at least two cars on the drive and the garage is an excellent size with a workshop at the far end. There is also a timber tool shed in the garden.
