Thoughtfully modernised throughout, the property combines contemporary open-plan living with a wealth of natural light and a wonderful connection to its surroundings. The principal living space has been reconfigured to create an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, designed to maximise the outstanding outlook. Triple-aspect windows frame the surrounding scenery, whilst a wood-burning stove provides a warming focal point.

Opening directly onto the Indian sandstone terrace, creating a seamless connection between the house and garden, and providing an ideal setting for entertaining, relaxing and enjoying the far-reaching views.

Further ground floor accommodation includes a separate sitting room, together with a versatile ground floor bedroom or study served by an adjacent shower room. This arrangement provides excellent flexibility for visiting guests, home working or multi-generational living.

The first floor has been thoughtfully remodelled to create a contemporary bathroom and two particularly generous double bedrooms.

Outside, the gardens have been carefully landscaped to take full advantage of the property's enviable setting. Arranged with Indian sandstone terraces and seating areas, the garden provides a wonderful environment for both entertaining and relaxation, complemented by an area of lawn, mature planting and established specimen trees.

To the front of the property, a sunken seating area provides a delightful spot to enjoy the morning sunshine, ideal for breakfast or a quiet coffee. Driveway parking for two vehicles leads to a substantial garage, detached from the house, which is currently utilised as storage, workshop and studio space, offering excellent versatility for a variety of hobbies and practical uses.
