From here, a delightful RECEPTION ROOM, currently arranged as a study, features a charming bay window overlooking the rose beds, attractive built-in open shelving with glazed cupboard doors, and wood flooring. This versatile space would equally make a wonderful formal DINING ROOM.

Opposite, the SITTING ROOM enjoys views to both the front and rear and is centred around a wood-burner, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Wood flooring enhances the character of the room, while French doors open onto the patio seating area with its electrically operated awning, a perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining.

At the heart of the home lies the spacious KITCHEN, a natural gathering place for everyday living. Laid with tiled flooring, it is fitted with wood laminate worktops, a Rangemaster™ double oven, integrated dishwasher, and space for a large freestanding fridge freezer. Generous cupboard storage and a timber breakfast bar make the room both highly functional and sociable. Above the sink, a bi-fold window opens directly onto the patio seating area, particularly useful when entertaining during the summer months.

Glazed doors lead through to the light-filled, vaulted GARDEN ROOM/DINING ROOM, a superb entertaining space with French doors opening directly onto the garden, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living.

To the rear, a characterful stable-style door opens into a practical and welcoming utility room, thoughtfully designed with built-in shelving, boot storage, coat hanging space, a sink, and plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, perfectly suited to country living and providing convenient access to the garden.

Upstairs, there are four generously proportioned DOUBLE BEDROOMS.

The wrap-around gardens are a true highlight, colourfully planted with an abundance of mature shrubs, established borders, and a beautiful rose bed to the front. Two separate patio seating areas provide ideal spaces for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing in the sunshine, with one complemented by an electrically operated awning for shade and comfort. To the rear, the garden backs directly onto open fields, where uninterrupted rural views and glowing sunsets create a picturesque and peaceful backdrop.
