A solid oak door enters the charming reception hall which has part vaulted ceilings, arch topped oak windows, herringbone brick flooring and views to the grounds and river beyond. A square arch opens to the kitchen/breakfast room which has an Aga set within a tiled recess, a range of oak units, an island unit and a porcelain sink. Attractive open studwork leads to the stairwell and brick steps access the dining room.
The dining room is charming and has beams to the wall and ceiling, a brick floor, views to the garden and an open fire flanked by a large cupboard. Steps then rise to the sitting room which has French doors to the garden, an attractive bay window to the front, beams to the wall and ceiling, and a red brick fire with a wood burner and bressummer beam above. The study/fourth bedroom can be accessed via the kitchen and offers useful quiet space, and has a large storage cupboard.
The remainder of the ground floor comprises a large summer kitchen/utility room which is extensively fitted, has a row of wall to ceiling cupboards, plumbing for a washing machine, stainless steel sink and oak effect flooring. Beyond this is a useful boot room which has a door to the garden, a Belfast sink, tiled floor, a cloakroom and a shower.
The first floor is equally charming, with a large landing which has exposed beams and views to the garden. The principal bedroom is especially impressive and has a part vaulted ceiling and views to the pool and terrace, directly adjacent is a large dressing room with a range of bespoke wardrobes. There are two further generously proportioned bedrooms, both of which have exposed beams to the walls and ceiling, one a well-appointed en-suite shower room, the other with a vanity unit, and both have fitted wardrobes. These bedrooms are both served by a recently refurbished bathroom which has a shower over the bath, a rectangular sink on a vanity unit, matching wc and a linen cupboard.
Outside
The property is approached via twin gates and a picket fence, beyond which are attractive dwarf red brick walls with lighting. An extensive parking area leads to a detached double cart lodge and wood store, adjacent to this is a shaped raised brick border which is extensively stocked with a range of shrubs and plants to provide year-round colour. A side gate affords access to the rear garden by the cart lodge.
The rear garden is a true delight and provides complete privacy with mature boundaries on all sides, and rolls down to the river on the westerly aspect which provides a beautiful back drop. There is an abundance of mature specimen trees throughout which include ash, horse chestnut and a monkey puzzle tree. Large expanses of lawn are interspersed with well-stocked herbaceous borders and areas of spring bulbs which provide colour and focal points. There are two foot bridges over the stream which lead to a meadow which has neatly clipped box hedgerows. There is a substantial outbuilding which has power and light and provides useful storage.
The stunning pool area is situated behind the house and is partly walled with raised brick planters, which have a variety of plants and an impressive climbing rose. There is a substantial terrace around the swimming pool, and a summer house which has a westerly outlook.
In all about 1.35 acres (sts).

Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
