Accommodation Details - Ground Floor - The main entrance door opens into a welcoming entrance hall, from which the ground floor accommodation unfolds in a particularly spacious and versatile arrangement. To one side is the dining room, a generous reception space measuring approximately 22'0" x 10'11", with door opening directly onto the rear garden. Its proportions allow ample room for both dining and additional seating, making it equally suitable as a more informal family room if preferred.

The adjoining kitchen is another particularly large room, extending to approximately 22'0" x 15'3". It is fitted with an extensive range of wall and base cabinetry, substantial work surfaces, a central island/breakfast bar and space for a range-style cooker. The size and layout provide excellent space for day-to-day family use and entertaining.

Across the property, the living room measures approximately 24'4" x 14'6" and is a notably generous main reception room. It has windows to more than one elevation, creating a triple-aspect arrangement, while a substantial fireplace with inset stove provides a natural focal point. The proportions allow considerable flexibility in furniture layout.

A further hall leads through to the practical ancillary accommodation. The utility room, approximately 14'6" x 10'3" maximum, is unusually spacious and fitted with additional storage, work surfaces and twin Belfast-style sinks, together with plumbing for laundry appliances. It also has external access, making it especially useful for family life, pets or muddy boots. Alongside is a separate ground-floor WC.

First Floor - Stairs rise to a central landing giving access to five bedrooms and the principal bathroom. The main bedroom is particularly spacious, with ample room for a full range of bedroom furniture, and is complemented by its own en-suite shower room.

There are four further bedrooms, with bedrooms two and three both offering good-sized double accommodation. Bedrooms four and five provide further versatility and could readily serve as children's rooms, guest accommodation, a home office or dressing room depending upon requirements.

The accommodation is completed by the family bathroom, fitted with a bath, wash basin and WC. Together with the principal en-suite and ground-floor WC, the layout is well suited to a larger family household.

Outside - The property occupies a generous overall plot, set well back from Ravenstone Road behind an extensive block-paved frontage providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles. The broad frontage is softened by established planting, hedging and a mature tree, while gated access continues alongside the house.

To the rear is a substantial garden, predominantly laid to lawn with paved seating areas adjoining the house and established planted borders. A particularly appealing addition is the detached garden room, positioned towards the rear of the plot and finished with a covered decked veranda. Internally, it provides a comfortable and versatile extra space, well suited to use as a home office, studio, games room or garden sitting room.

Beyond the garden is an open aspect towards neighbouring fields and countryside, which gives the rear of the property a more spacious and semi-rural feel.
