Accommodation

On the ground floor, there are two bedrooms, one to the front overlooking the Mill Pond and the other to the rear overlooking the garden. Both are connected by a very useful and spacious central area, which could easily be used as a study area/home office.

There is a fully fitted shower room, plenty storage and a partially glazed door to the garden.


The staircase rises to the first floor and to the centre of the open-plan kitchen/dining/sitting room.

The kitchen is to the back of the house with views over the garden, and is fitted with a range of cream coloured gloss units under cream Corian worktops and has a range of Neff appliances including an electric oven and hob with extractor over, integrated fridge/freezer, dishwasher and bin store.

There is ample space for a dedicated dining area.

The sitting room, which is front facing, has sliding glass doors with a Juliet-style balcony and provides pleasant views out over the Mill Pond. A wonderful spot for watching the variety of birds often on show.


The central staircase rises further to the second floor where there is a third bedroom with fitted ensuite shower room and large front and rear skylights.


Outside
From Bridgefoot Path steps rise to a central pathway leading to the front door and a gate into the back garden. There is a elevated courtyard at the front of the house, an ideal spot for relaxing and watching life out on the pond or enjoying the evening sunset.

The garden to the rear of the house is terraced on two levels and mainly laid to patio with shrub borders. This is perfect for following the sun or shade, whichever is your preference.

At the top of the garden, the converted garage is now a detached annexe/studio with shower room, electric heating and wooden flooring. This offers a variety of uses such as a home office, hobbies room or even a teenager's den. There is private parking area at the rear of this building.
