Within the kitchen there is a large island with solid wood top, a bespoke light fitting above and space for seating around. In addition, there is space for a Rangemaster electric range cooker (with an extractor hood in place above), an integrated dishwasher and wine cooler, plus a recess for a freestanding fridge/freezer. Accessed from the kitchen is a rear porch leading out to the courtyard and a door into an adjoining utility room/WC. This useful space has further storage, a Belfast sink unit and a low level WC.

Completing the ground floor accommodation is a delightful sitting room, which is spacious and also includes a stone chimney breast with inset wood burning stove. The sitting room then has a door leading back to the hall.

On the first floor, a central landing with a large walk-in cupboard gives access into three generous bedrooms, all of which has fitted storage. The smartly presented family bathroom has been newly fitted in a traditional style and comprises a freestanding roll top bath with mixer taps, a low level WC, a separate shower cubicle with modern tiling and a pedestal wash hand basin.

OUTSIDE
At the front of the property is a stone-chipped driveway providing off-road parking for several vehicles. This leads to an enclosed, double-gated section by the main entrance, also laid to stone chippings.

To the rear of the house is a gated courtyard seating area, which is accessed via a right of way across the neighbouring property. The property benefits from part of a stone-built building behind, providing some useful storage.

Opposite the house is a separate section of ground which runs down towards Emborough Pond. A blank canvas for a purchaser to work with, it offers a wonderful space to transform into an additional garden, seating areas or to be landscaped.
