Description
Set back from the road, the property benefits from a large private driveway providing parking for several vehicles, while the elevated position to the front allows for particularly attractive views across the fields. The combination of the peaceful setting, single-storey accommodation and private outdoor spaces makes this an appealing property for those looking to downsize, retire or simply enjoy village life.
The accommodation currently provides a flexible one to two-bedroom layout, with the second bedroom presently being used as a dining room. The room is, however, perfectly suitable for use as a second double bedroom, giving prospective purchasers the opportunity to adapt the property to suit their individual requirements.
The good-sized kitchen is positioned to the front of the property and is fitted with a range of modern wall and base units, complemented by a useful breakfast bar providing seating for two. A side door provides direct access to the side of the property.
The living room is a pleasant and naturally light space, with French doors opening directly onto the private rear courtyard/garden. This provides an excellent extension of the living space during warmer months and is designed for relatively low-maintenance enjoyment.
The principal bedroom is a generous double and is positioned to the rear of the property, overlooking the garden. There is also a second room, currently arranged as a dining room, which could readily be utilised as a further double bedroom if required.
The bathroom is fitted with a shower, WC and wash hand basin, with two useful storage cupboards providing additional household storage.
Externally, the property benefits from a number of particularly attractive features. To the front is a substantial driveway, with ample space for multiple cars. The property's position set back from the road also contributes to the feeling of privacy.
The front aspect is a major selling point, with the property enjoying lovely open views across neighbouring fields and the surrounding countryside.
To the rear is a private, low-maintenance courtyard garden, accessed directly from the living room via the French doors. To the side of the property is a further garden/seating area, providing an ideal space for a table and chairs and outdoor entertaining. The side garden also benefits from a separate door providing access into the house.
