Accommodation The property is entered via a generous and welcoming entrance hall, an impressive space that provides access to the principal ground floor rooms as well as stairs rising to the first floor.

The vaulted sitting room is a particularly striking reception space with excellent proportions and enjoys lovely views over the gardens. The dining hall provides an ideal setting for entertaining and connects well with the rest of the living accommodation.

The kitchen/breakfast room has been thoughtfully designed to create a spacious and practical environment, fitted with a range of high-quality wall and base units providing excellent storage together with generous work surfaces and a range oven. Adjacent is a useful utility room and cloakroom with WC.

In addition to the main reception rooms there are two further versatile rooms on the ground floor, which could easily serve as guest bedrooms, a study, snug or playroom, depending on requirements. 

First Floor A spacious landing with a galleried void overlooking the dining hall creates an attractive sense of space and light.

There are two further double bedrooms served by a well-appointed family bathroom.

The principal bedroom suite is an especially impressive room featuring exposed beams, fitted wardrobes and Velux windows which flood the space with natural light. The suite also benefits from a luxury en-suite shower room and a charming Juliet balcony. 

Outside The property is set well back from the lane and approached via a shingle driveway providing ample off-road parking and access to a substantial barn building, currently used for storage but equally well suited for garaging or workshop space.

The grounds extend to just over an acre and have been thoughtfully landscaped to create a highly attractive outdoor environment. Immediately adjoining the house is a delightful terrace ideal for outdoor dining, leading onto lawns and garden areas.

A particularly special feature is the purpose-built natural swimming pond, complemented by a timber summer house with decking overlooking the water.Beyond this lies the recently upgraded tennis court, finished in classic Wimbledon colours, providing an exceptional recreational facility within the grounds.
