Brook House surpasses all expectations of floor space and head height suggested by its quaint chocolate box façade. Purchased as a project, it has been meticulously restored and remodeled to create an attractive, practical, and contemporary living space that makes the most of its inglenook fireplace, beams, and vaulted ceilings. The two main living areas downstairs, the kitchen/dining room and the sitting room, enclose the courtyard garden on two sides. The 40ft kitchen and dining room boast vaulted, beamed ceilings, with slate tiles running the length. The kitchen is equipped with an electic array of warm wooden units, space for an Aga and fridge/freezer, and plumbing for a dishwasher. Additional appliance space and storage can be found in the storeroom/garage, accessed from a rear lobby off the dining area.

Perpendicular to the kitchen is the sitting room, featuring an inglenook fireplace at one end and a bespoke brick-built fireplace at the other. A central, ornate, reclaimed iron staircase divides the room into two inviting seating areas, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Upstairs, the two double bedrooms both have vaulted ceilings, built-in storage, and ensuite shower rooms. Additional rooms include a downstairs bathroom, a rear lobby, and a fully decorated loft space/hobby room/study with windows opening onto a balcony.

Services: Main electric, oil central heating, mains drainage and water.
