The Property

The current owners have transformed this property from its previous neglected state into a beautifully renovated home, finished to a high standard throughout. With a background in both gardening and professional cooking, their attention to detail shines—particularly in the kitchen and garden.

The kitchen is truly a standout feature. Thoughtfully designed for both function and style, it boasts a high-spec Samsung smart oven and induction hob, sleek quartz worktops, and premium cabinetry. The layout makes cooking a pleasure, and its connection to the garden—through a large window above the sink and double doors—creates a seamless indoor-outdoor flow.

The garden is a real sanctuary. Lovingly curated and southeast-facing, it offers multiple areas to relax, dine, and enjoy at different times of day. Fruit trees including plum and apple, raised beds bursting with vegetables like courgettes, green beans, corn, and chard, and a vibrant mix of flowers make it a truly special space. Despite its abundance, it still offers room to sit back with a coffee or entertain outdoors.

Inside, the entire house has been meticulously updated: fully replastered, with new windows and shutters, modern flooring, contemporary fixtures and fittings, and reinsulated roof rafters for comfort and efficiency. Tastefully decorated throughout, this is a warm, stylish, and practical home—perfect for a couple or young family looking for a move-in ready property with heart and soul.
