Description

Fir Tree House is a detached property with an attractive double fronted main elevation of chequered brick under a slate roof. The character of the property has been preserved and enhanced with sash double glazed windows, oak doors and flooring and fireplaces.

The two reception rooms are at the front and both have fireplaces and are double aspect. The focal point in the house is the rear extension with an impressive kitchen/family room, a triple aspect room with bi-fold doors to the garden and terrace. It is well appointed with a double oven and six ring hob Rangemaster and an American style fridge freezer and dishwater.

On the first floor are four well proportioned bedrooms and the principal bedroom has double fitted wardrobes with views over the rear garden and paddock beyond. To the side of the property are wrought iron gates which open onto parking and turning area and a large double garage. The garden is laid to lawn with an attractive mixture of specimen trees including walnut, oak and apple.

The paddock is situated to the rear and is in permanent pasture and benefits from vehicular access off a side lane.

In all, the gardens and paddock extend to some 1.91 acres.
