EPC Rating - Band D

Approached via a large private courtyard, the home instantly endears with its rustic stone exterior and pantile roof. An entrance porch welcomes you inside, offering space for coats and muddy shoes and leading straight into a living room. Here, the combination of neutral décor and an earthy-toned tiled floor creates an ideal backdrop for characterful exposed stone walls and a rich ceiling beam, adding traditional charm to the room, which offers fantastic flexibility for numerous furniture layouts. One of the stone walls frames a Jotul wood-burning stove, flanked by two large recesses for log storage. Two handy built-in storage cupboards complete the room, which affords access to a conservatory through double doors, offering a fabulous open space for everyday family life and entertaining alike and extending onto the garden beyond.

The conservatory captures tranquil views of the garden as it changes through the seasons with swathes of glass allowing an abundance of natural light to stream in throughout the day. The living room flows through to a spacious kitchen. Exuding country charm and similarly-styled to the reception room with a further stone wall, the kitchen is beautifully-appointed with a wide range of cream-coloured, farmhouse-inspired cabinets, accompanied by warmly-toned wood worktops, a Belfast sink, stylish splashback tiling, and coordinating
dove-grey décor. A rich-red Rayburn stove adds a splash of colour to the space and creates a beautiful focal point, whilst a number of appliances are neatly integrated, and an adjoining utility room (with garden access) offers further cabinetry and space for freestanding goods. The generous space in the kitchen allows for a large central dining table and chairs ideal for family meals, entertaining, and socialising. A door from the kitchen leads through to a hall, which in turn affords access to the first of five double bedrooms on offer, a study, and a bathroom.


The master suite is presented with gleaming white floor tiles, neutral décor and a chic grey feature wall, and has the added benefit of a built-in wardrobe and its own deluxe en-suite shower room. The shower room comes complete with a luxurious walk-in enclosure with a rainfall showerhead, Jack-and-Jill sinks with illuminated mirrors, a WC, a large storage unit, and two chrome towel radiators. The study is perfect for working from home, and the family bathroom comes complete with a bathtub, a basin atop a storage unit, and a WC.



Separate staircases from the hall and living room lead to two landings on the first-floor, both affording access to two bedrooms each. The sunny sleeping areas all enjoy their own unique, tasteful décor, capture natural light throughout the day, and one has the luxury of an en-suite shower room, replete with a cylindrical cubicle with a rainfall showerhead, a wall-mounted basin, a handy storage unit, a WC, and a chrome towel warmer. The smallest two bedrooms also benefit from built-in storage. The home is efficiently heated by a gas central heating system and all windows throughout are double-glazed.

Externally, the wonderful home is accompanied by vast, delightful gardens to the rear, with sprawling, manicured lawns bordered by neat hedgerows and interspersed with mature trees and leafy shrubbery, secluded patios, a chipped childrens play area, a charming play house, and a shed for handy external storage. This fantastic outdoor space lends itself perfectly to family living and is ideal for alfresco gatherings, parties, and barbecues during the warmer months. The private front courtyard offers outstanding private parking for multiple vehicles. The current owners have also purchased a driveway to the rear of the property.
