The welcoming entrance hall, finished with engineered wood flooring and underfloor heating which extends throughout the ground floor, sets the tone for the quality found throughout the home.

Outside, the south-west facing garden enjoys a pleasant outlook towards the surrounding countryside, framed by an attractive dry-stone wall along the rear boundary. A generous paved terrace provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, with external power and lighting enhancing the space, while the brise soleil complements the contemporary design and provides practical shade from the afternoon sun.

Approached through remotely operated gates, the property benefits from a generous gravel driveway and secure undercroft parking with space for multiple vehicles. Further features include an EV charging point and a secure illuminated cycle and bin store.
