With four bedrooms and two bathrooms there is ample space for a family looking for an individual home or a couple looking to make an escape to the country.

Epitomising country style, the centerpiece of the property is the wonderful, bespoke kitchen which features a range of hand built units, inset butler sink, aga and containing what is believed to be an original bread oven.

Three immaculate reception rooms provide a dual aspect sitting room with a useful small study area, a formal dining room which presents as an ideal venue for hosting family and social gatherings and then finally a snug off the kitchen which either makes for a great casual TV room or could perhaps be utilised as a play room.
