An immaculately presented and extended modern detached family home, full of character and charm, offering spacious and flexible living accommodation throughout. Located on a quiet no-through road in the heart of this picturesque village, the property has been sympathetically modernised to an exceptional standard.
The home is approached via a gravel driveway providing off-street parking for several vehicles, with gated side access leading to the rear garden.
A storm porch leads to the reception hall, where stairs rise to the first floor. The hallway offers a deep understairs storage cupboard and a modern cloakroom. The living room, with its exposed beams and fireplace featuring an inset wood-burning stove, provides a cosy atmosphere for autumn and winter evenings. Bi-folding doors open into the expansive, open-plan kitchen and dining room.
The kitchen has been beautifully refitted with high-quality wall and base units, ample stone countertops, and integrated appliances. The exposed beams add character, while large doors and windows flood the space with natural light. The adjoining dining area, with a feature panelled wall, leads through to a games room with secondary stairs accessing the first floor. Additionally, there is a further reception room at the front of the house, currently used as a gym, and a utility room with extra storage, a sink, and a boiler, with a side door leading outside.
The first floor is served by two staircases, creating flexible living spaces. The main staircase leads to the master bedroom with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite featuring a modern three-piece suite. Two additional bedrooms and a high-quality family bathroom are located in this area.
The second landing, accessed from the games room, serves two further double bedrooms and a stylish shower room. These rooms benefit from vaulted ceilings, exposed brickwork, oak flooring, and modern tiling, making this section perfect for guests or family members seeking a private space.
The rear garden is fully enclosed, providing a private outdoor area for entertaining. It features a raised artificial grass area with a sunken trampoline, mature hedging, and a discreet oil tank area, backing onto open fields and gardens.
Agent’s Note: The current owners have extended and modernized the property to a high specification, blending character features like exposed beams with modern touches, including inset lighting, plantation shutters, and premium floor finishes.
