The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to include a small orchard area for home grown apples and plums, productive allotment beds and multiple seating areas, making this an idyllic setting for both entertaining and everyday enjoyment.
The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hallway, complete with a useful storage cupboard, doors to all principal ground-floor rooms and stairs rising to the first floor. The living room is a standout space, featuring a south-facing square bay window overlooking the garden and a wood-burning stove that creates a warm and inviting focal point.

The bathroom has been stylishly upgraded to provide a modern four-piece suite, including a large walk-in shower, bath, wash basin and WC. A double cupboard discreetly houses a practical utility space.
Completing the ground floor is a highly versatile additional room, filled with light from its triple-aspect windows and featuring French doors opening directly onto the garden. This space could be ideal as a garden room, home office, bedroom or snug.
Upstairs, the property is crowned by a luxurious principal suite, incorporating a dressing area, a sleek en-suite shower room and dual-aspect windows with leafy outlooks, creating a calm and private retreat.
Externally, the home benefits from a private driveway with parking for three vehicles, along with a freehold garage located opposite in a block, fitted with an electric roller door and power.
