GROUND FLOOR
Enter through the spacious rear entrance hall, where exposed stone walls immediately set a warm, cottage-style tone. This area is wonderfully versatile, functioning as a room in its own right with the added benefit of a practical under-stairs storage cupboard. The olive-green, wood-panelled chimney breast serves as a striking focal point, bringing character and warmth to the space. From here, step into the beautifully presented farmhouse-style open-plan dining kitchen and living area — truly the heart of the home. Brimming with character, it features polished stone floors, exposed timber beams, and French doors opening out to the garden. Perfect for both everyday family life and entertaining, the kitchen is fitted with traditional shaker-style units, solid wood worktops, a ceramic sink with side drainer, and a large Rangemaster cooker with extractor. There’s space for appliance and generous storage including a wine rack. The space flows effortlessly into the adjoining sitting area, where a feature fireplace sets the scene for relaxed evenings, while a single rear door opens out to the private courtyard. A separate large utility room adds further practicality, continuing the polished stone flooring and shaker-style cabinetry with solid wood worktops. This space provides room for a washing machine, dishwasher, and fridge freezer, and also houses a stainless-steel sink with mixer tap, along with a convenient downstairs WC. A window to the rear aspect with fitted blinds ensures the room is both functional and bright. Completing the ground floor is a breathtaking extended living/dining room which is the focal point of the property. With its high vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, and skylights, the room is bathed in natural light. To the rear, a dedicated dining space complements a spacious yet cosy seating area at the front, centred around a large log burner set on a stone hearth with rustic lintel. Modern anthracite bi-fold doors open onto the mature, tranquil garden, enhancing the sense of space and connection to the outdoors. As well as the skylights the dual-aspect windows ensure this versatile room feels light and airy throughout the day, making it the most enjoyed space in the home.
FIRST FLOOR
A generous landing leads to three double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite, and a stylish house bathroom. Bedroom One A bright and spacious double bedroom with light décor, offering ample room for large wardrobes. A wide window frames views over the beautiful, expansive rear garden, creating a serene backdrop. This room benefits from a private en-suite shower room. The en-suite is accessed via a sleek sliding door and designed in a modern wet-room style, fully tiled to the walls with a practical non-slip floor. It features a contemporary wash basin with chrome mixer tap, a corner shower with glass sliding doors, and a W.C. Cleverly designed shelving and inset wall storage provide both convenience and style. Bedroom Two A well-proportioned double room, currently accommodating a double bed with space remaining for a bedside table and wardrobes. A front-facing window, fitted with blinds, brings in natural light, making this an inviting and versatile room. Bedroom Three Another light and airy double bedroom with a window overlooking the rear garden. With scope for fitted wardrobes and potential to extend into the landing if desired, this room offers excellent flexibility for growing needs. House Bathroom The house bathroom is finished with a slate-effect floor and tiled walls to wet areas. It includes a white wood-panelled bath with shower over, a wash basin, and W.C. An opaque front-facing window with roller blind provides natural light while maintaining privacy.
OUTSIDE
The gardens are a true highlight of this property – beautifully established and thoughtfully landscaped over decades to create a private, tranquil retreat. A manicured lawn is framed by mature trees, flowering shrubs and vibrant planting, ensuring year-round colour and interest. Meandering pathways guide you through hidden seating areas, perfect for enjoying the sunshine or a quiet moment of relaxation. Two feature ponds, including one stocked with koi carp, sit amongst lush greenery, enhancing the sense of calm while attracting an abundance of local wildlife. A raised Yorkshire stone terrace provides an ideal setting for alfresco dining, while a charming stone-paved courtyard at the front offers a warm and characterful welcome. Established hedging encloses the garden, creating excellent privacy and a natural sense of seclusion. Practical features are seamlessly integrated: a spacious garage for storage, along with a beautifully crafted sun room featuring Yorkshire stone flooring and olive-green frames that blend harmoniously into the garden setting. Complete with a log burner, this versatile space can be enjoyed all year round and could also serve as a substantially built garden room with home office potential if required. The property also benefits from solar panels, discreetly installed and generating an annual return of approximately £2,000–£2,500. Parking is well catered for, with a driveway and two private garden parking spaces (with capacity for more vehicles if desired). Please note, however, that access down Prospect Place, a private road leading to the property, is narrow and most suitable for small to medium-sized cars. Larger SUVs may find access limited.
