4 bedroom detached house for sale

A stunning four bedroom country home brimming with period charm and character in the lovely rural village of Rolleston.

From the effortlessly sophisticated sitting and dining room, with its log burning stove, to the solid french oak floors and theatrical exposed beams in the original 18th century section of the property, this house is full of period character and warmth. The homely solid oak kitchen is a lovely central family hub and the inviting den provides a space to cosy down in.

Upstairs does not disappoint, at the top of the traditional wooden staircase is a particularly large open landing with elegant seating area. There are four bedrooms including a spectacular master bedroom with handsome ensuite and a beautifully finished main bathroom.

This charming property sits on an enviable plot with a pretty south westerly facing garden, large dining patio, elevated seating area and attractive wooden summerhouse.
