The kitchen
The heart of daily life features fitted base and wall cabinets and runs of worktop incorporating a freestanding oven. A stainless steel sink sits beneath a rear facing window with tiled splashback. Two store cupboards adjoin the space and a door links to the hall, ensuring practical circulation.

The dining room
As a dedicated space for family meals, the dining room benefits from a wide front facing window that floods the room with daylight. A covered chimney breast provides a natural focal point for a future fireplace. The room connects neatly with the hall and lies adjacent to the kitchen for ease of service.

The living room
Serving as the primary reception space, the living room spans the depth of the house to provide a generous area for relaxation. A boarded fireplace offers potential and a broad window frames views across the front garden, while a second window and door to the hall enhance the flow.

The primary bedroom
The primary bedroom enjoys the largest proportions on the first floor and features a characterful sloping ceiling. A deep set triple casement window looks over the frontage, with the room being convenient for both the landing and bathroom.

The second bedroom
The second bedroom is well sized for double occupancy, with a dormer window set into the roofline offering far reaching views and a deep windowsill. Exposed floorboards add warmth and the sloping ceiling creates a cosy corner for a desk or seating. Lying opposite the landing, it is within easy reach of the bathroom.

The third bedroom
The third bedroom provides a versatile single or study, distinguished by its angled ceiling and recessed window set beneath the eaves. Space is available for shelving or storage, and the proportions allow practical everyday use.

The fourth bedroom
The fourth bedroom occupies a corner position and would suit use as a family or guest bedroom or home office. A built in corner cupboard provides integrated storage, while a window frames views across the adjoining fields. The sloping ceiling and timber floorboards define the character of this versatile space.

The bathroom
The bathroom is fitted with suite comprising a panelled bath with an electric shower above, a pedestal wash basin and a WC. Tiled walls around the bath make for easy maintenance and a window provides natural light and ventilation. An extractor vent supplements airflow and helps to keep the space fresh.

The garden
The rear garden is a standout feature, stretching to an impressive length and mainly laid to lawn. Fenced and hedged boundaries enclose the space, while established shrubs border the lawn. Near the house is a paved terrace and timber outbuilding, and beyond the lawn open fields create an uninterrupted rural backdrop. There is ample scope for landscaping or a vegetable plot.

The driveway and parking
A gravel and paved driveway flanks the side of the house, providing off road parking for multiple vehicles and access to the rear. The front garden is laid to lawn with hedging and a central path to the front door.

Reservation Fee - refundable on exchange

A reservation fee, refundable on exchange, is payable prior to the issue of the Memorandum of Sale and after which the property may be marked as Sold Subject to Contract. The fee will be reimbursed upon the successful Exchange of Contracts.

The fee will be retained by Andrew Grant in the event that you the Buyer withdraws from the purchase or does not Exchange within 6 months of the fee being received other than for one or more of the following reasons:

1. Any significant material issues which individually are more than 1% of the agreed purchase price and are highlighted in a survey and were not evident or drawn to the attention of you, the Buyer, prior to the Memorandum of Sale being issued.
2. Serious and material defect in the seller’s legal title.
3. Local search revealing a matter that has a material adverse effect on the market value of the property that was previously undeclared and not in the public domain.
4. The vendor withdrawing the property from sale.

The reservation fee will be 0.5% of the accepted offer price for offers below £800,000 and 1% for offers of £800,000 or over. This fee, unless specified otherwise, is payable upon acceptance by the vendor of an offer from a buyer and completion of an assessment of the buyer’s financial status and ability to proceed.

Should a buyer’s financial position regarding the funding of the property prove to be fundamentally different from that declared by the buyer when the Memorandum of Sale was completed, then the Vendor has the right to withdraw from the sale and/or the reservation fee retained. For example, where the buyer declares themselves as a cash buyer but are in fact relying on an unsecured sale of their property. The reservation fee will not be refunded where there is an inability on the part of the Buyer to raise any required mortgage after the Memorandum of Sale is completed.

Once the reservation fee has been paid, any renegotiation of the price stated in the memorandum of sale for any reason other than those covered in points 1 to 3 above will lead to the reservation fee being retained. A further fee will be levied on any subsequent reduced offer that is accepted by the vendor. This further fee will be subject to the same conditions that prevail for all reservation fees outlined above.
