Pantiles
Pantiles is a wonderfully presented Grade II listed village house with colourwashed elevations under a pantiled roofline. The accommodation extends to approximately 1639 sq.ft. Since the current owners purchased the property they have erected the cart lodge, replaced the kitchen, replaced the front windows with double glazed hardwood frames and installed a new boiler and oil tank. Of particular note is the sitting room with a wonderful inglenook fireplace with barrel vaulted brick surround and wood burner on tiled hearth. The ground floor also comprises a useful hall currently used as a snug area, a dining room, downstairs shower room and a wonderful kitchen/breakfast room. From the hall/snug a staircase (with built in cupboards to one side) leads up to the first floor landing where access is given to three good sized bedrooms and the bathroom. Both the bathroom and one of the bedrooms have vaulted ceilings. From the landing an additional staircase leads up to the second floor where there are two good sized attic rooms both currently used as bedrooms. There is clear evidence of a heavy timber frame at the property with exposed timbers throughout.

Outside
Pantiles is approached over a gravelled driveway giving access to the two bay cart lodge. (It is understood that the timbers and substructure for the cart lodge are all in place for an additional floor subject to any necessary consents). There is a large terraced area ideal for al fresco dining and barbecues. Of particular note in the garden is the detached garden room with two stores and a workshop. This room provides an ideal opportunity for a variety of uses subject to any necessary consents. There is also an additional timber framed shed and a useful brick outbuilding currently used as a washhouse which has plumbing for a washing machine. The gardens at Pantiles are predominantly laid to lawn with a mixture of wonderful mature trees and shrubs and for a village house the gardens are surprisingly large extending to approximately 0.29 of an acre (s.t.s).
