The approach is via a long, sweeping private driveway leading to a generous gravelled parking and turning area, with mature shrub borders and outside lighting.

From here, steps rise to a landscaped garden featuring a large pond with willow trees, a raised terrace, and a decked area adjoining the lounge—perfect for outdoor entertaining and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Beyond the formal garden, a paddock extends to the rear, bordered by mature hedging, and a useful barn and adjoining store offer potential for further development, subject to the necessary consents.
Inside, the accommodation is both spacious and versatile. The entrance hall leads to a study, cloakroom, and the kitchen/breakfast room, which features a painted pine cupboard range, Belfast sink, and a brick fireplace recess with an electric Aga. A practical utility room houses the LPG boiler, sink, and storage, while the lounge/dining room features part-timbered walls, a raised slate hearth with wood-burning stove, and double-glazed French doors opening onto the terrace.
The first floor comprises four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys a Velux rooflight and far-reaching views, while the bathrooms combine panelled and tiled finishes, with both baths and walk-in showers. A second-floor sitting room is a light-filled retreat with vaulted ceilings, exposed timbers, a wood-burning stove, and access to a terrace, offering a quiet space to relax and enjoy the outlook.
