Description
Originally dating back to the 1700s, the oldest part of the home is steeped in character and heritage, whilst thoughtful extensions and improvements have created a superb blend of period charm and modern family living.
The property is approached via an attractive in-and-out driveway providing extensive off-road parking for numerous vehicles, alongside a single garage. From the moment you enter, the home immediately impresses with its welcoming entrance hallway and stunning oak staircase, setting the tone for the quality and character found throughout.
The spacious living room is centred around a beautiful exposed brick fireplace, creating a warm and inviting reception space ideal for both relaxing and entertaining.
At the heart of the home is the superb kitchen dining room, thoughtfully designed in a timeless country style and complemented by elegant stone worktops. The dining area enjoys an abundance of natural light from the roof lantern and French doors which open directly onto the gardens, perfectly framing the surrounding countryside views.
A particularly versatile ground floor room is currently utilised as a home office but could equally serve as a playroom, snug or fourth bedroom, benefitting from a beautifully appointed en-suite shower room.
To the first floor are three generous double bedrooms, all enjoying delightful outlooks, alongside a beautifully appointed family bathroom featuring an original Victorian bath, traditional sink, and separate shower enclosure, with a separate WC completing the layout.
Externally, the property continues to impress with its beautifully maintained gardens, offering a wonderful degree of privacy and tranquillity whilst enjoying stunning panoramic views across open farmland.
