"The extension is what changes this house. It gives the kitchen enough room to become a genuine family space, with distinct areas for cooking, eating and sitting, all opening directly onto a very private garden." - Andy Moran Chantries and Pewleys

The Kitchen & Family Space
The extension has transformed the ground floor, creating a 24-foot kitchen/family/breakfast room that has become the natural centre of the house.

The kitchen is arranged around a large island, with Shaker-style cabinetry, timber worktops and a range-style cooker. Beyond, the extended area creates clearly defined places to dine, sit or work, with exposed brick, timber beams and rooflights adding character.

Glazing wraps around the rear of the room and doors open directly onto the patio and garden. It gives the whole space a strong connection outside and allows the dining area to work particularly well when the doors are open.

Living Spaces
There is still plenty of separation when it is wanted. The sitting room has a wood-burning stove and its own doors onto the garden, while the substantial dining room provides another completely separate reception space.

A study/bedroom four adds further flexibility on the ground floor, whether used for working from home or as additional bedroom accommodation.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms
Upstairs are three bedrooms, with the main bedroom positioned at the rear overlooking the garden. It has its own walk-in dressing room and en suite shower room.

Two further bedrooms share the family bathroom, while the ground-floor study provides the fourth bedroom when required.

The Garden
The privacy and depth of the rear garden are a significant part of the property.

A broad patio sits immediately outside the house, with a raised lawn beyond framed by mature planting. Further into the garden, a newly created patio and pergola provide a second seating area away from the house.

To the front, resin off-road parking creates a smart approach to the house.
