INTERNAL
The welcoming entrance hall, with a cloakroom/WC and useful under-stair storage cupboard, opens into a generously proportioned formal dining room enjoying dual-aspect, south-facing valley views and providing internal access to the double garage. Throughout the property, traditional mullioned windows have been sympathetically upgraded with double glazing, retaining the character of the home while improving comfort.
The heart of the home is a spacious farmhouse kitchen breakfast room featuring a decorative stove set within an impressive Yorkshire stone fireplace, extensive cabinetry and integrated appliances. A practical adjoining utility room is fitted with a Belfast sink, additional storage cupboards and provides direct access to the gardens via a stable door.

Adjoining the kitchen, the sitting room extends from front to rear with exposed beams, mullioned windows to three elevations and a substantial Yorkshire stone fireplace with an open fire creating a superb focal point. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a delightful library with a vaulted ceiling, bespoke oak shelving and fitted desk, enjoying views across the front gardens and wildlife pond as well as the private gardens to the rear.
To the first floor, a spacious landing features an entire wall of bespoke fitted shelving with integrated lighting and leads to a dedicated double-aspect home office with bespoke fitted furniture together with six well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal suite is particularly impressive, boasting triple-aspect windows and an en-suite shower room. Four further double bedrooms, including one with a wash basin, two with original alcove wardrobes and one with a large walk-in wardrobe, are complemented by a comfortable single bedroom. Many of the bedrooms retain attractive exposed stone features, while the rear-facing rooms enjoy delightful views across the landscaped gardens, winding stream and surrounding wildlife. A four-piece family bathroom and an additional separate shower room serve the remaining accommodation.

A fully boarded loft, accessed via a fitted ladder and complete with lighting and power, provides extensive and easily accessible storage.

EXTERNAL
Set within grounds extending to over an acre, the mature gardens wrap around the property creating an exceptional sense of privacy and tranquillity. The front gardens extend beyond the sweeping in-and-out driveway, cascading down the hillside with established lawns, mature trees and colourful planting that provide an impressive approach to the house. To the rear, beautifully landscaped gardens offer a series of patios, seating areas, a barbecue terrace, productive kitchen garden, greenhouse and a variety of well-stocked flower beds. Two wildlife ponds and winding streams attract an abundance of local birdlife, creating a peaceful setting to enjoy throughout the seasons.
A substantial stone outbuilding benefits from Listed Building Consent for conversion into additional living accommodation, presenting exciting potential for an annexe, home office or holiday let. Consent has also been granted for the installation of a rooflight above the entrance hall and solar panels within the rear garden.

An integrated double garage with an electric door is complemented by ample off-road parking on the in-and-out driveway, positioned at the top of the impressive front gardens.
