Offered for the first time in over four decades, it offers excellent potential for modernisation and extension (subject to the necessary permissions) to create a remarkable forever home.
A welcoming porch opens into a generous entrance hallway with an under-stairs storage cupboard and cloakroom with wc. The light-filled living room enjoys triple-aspect windows, a charming inglenook fireplace, and double doors into the conservatory, which overlooks the garden. The dual-aspect dining room, also with a feature fireplace, is positioned at the front of the property, while to the rear, the kitchen offers ample space for a breakfast table, fitted cabinetry, worktops, and some appliances, all while enjoying a delightful garden outlook.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom has been combined with the fourth bedroom to create a spacious dressing room/walk-in wardrobe. A second double bedroom and further single are served by a modern, re-fitted shower room.
