Another charming inglenook fireplace adds to the sense of history and character. Ornate French doors open through to the sitting room, a beautifully inviting dual-aspect reception room filled with natural light. A fireplace forms the focal point of the space, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere, while further French doors open directly onto the patio, allowing the room to connect effortlessly with the garden and making it ideal for both everyday relaxation and entertaining. Stairs rise to the first floor, where there are four well-proportioned double bedrooms. Two benefit from built-in cupboard space, and exposed beams continue the characterful feel found throughout the property. The principal suite is a true sanctuary, generously proportioned and enhanced by a high ceiling, which gives a wonderful sense of space and light. Enjoying a dual aspect, the room also benefits from a Juliet balcony, creating an elegant focal point and a pleasant outlook. A dedicated dressing room provides excellent storage, while the en suite is well appointed with a bath, separate shower, wash basin and WC.. The remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom, fitted with a bath with shower over, wash basin and WC, while also housing a useful airing cupboard.

Outside, the property enjoys an enclosed rear garden, thoughtfully arranged to make the most of the space and setting. Steps lead up to a generous lawned area, edged with decorative herbaceous borders and mature planting, creating a private and attractive backdrop. Beyond, a gravel seating area provides a pleasant spot for pots and outdoor furniture, while the summer house, fitted with power and lighting, offers a lovely place to sit, relax or enjoy the garden throughout the seasons. A children’s tree house adds further charm and family appeal, and the garden enjoys views across neighbouring fields, enhancing the sense of space and countryside outlook.

Identity Verification
To ensure full compliance with current legal requirements, all buyers are required to verify their identity and risk status in line with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations before we can formally proceed with the sale. This process includes a series of checks covering identity verification, politically exposed person (PEP) screening, and AML risk assessment for each individual named as a purchaser. In addition, for best practice, we are required to obtain proof of funds and where necessary, to carry out checks on the source of funds being used for the purchase. These checks are mandatory and must be completed regardless of whether the purchase is mortgage-funded, cash, or part of a related transaction. A disbursement of £49 per individual (or £75 per director for limited company purchases) is payable to cover all aspects of this compliance process. This fee represents the full cost of conducting the required checks and verifications. You will receive a secure payment link and full instructions directly from our compliance partner, Guild365, who carry out these checks on our behalf.
