For those who enjoy contemporary living, the open-plan kitchen diner is a standout feature. Bathed in natural light from its dual-aspect windows, it offers ample space for family breakfasts or casual dining, while a substantial utility room ensures the kitchen remains clutter-free and functional. The versatility continues with a third reception room overlooking the lawn - whether used as a playroom, home office, or snug, this room adapts effortlessly to your needs. A thoughtfully positioned cloakroom completes the ground floor, adding to the home’s practicality.
Ascending the first floor, you are greeted by a grand galleried landing that amplifies the sense of space and elegance. The accommodation boasts six bedrooms, each offering a haven of comfort. The master bedroom enjoys the luxury of its own ensuite, while the sixth bedroom, an extraordinary 24 feet in length, offers endless possibilities—whether as a hobby room, studio, or retreat. A practical family shower room provides the perfect finishing touch to this floor.
Stepping outside, the grounds are beautifully divided into three distinct areas to suit every lifestyle need.
The mature lawn, bordered by established trees, creates an idyllic space where children can play freely in nature.
The courtyard, with its flower-draped timber pergola, sunken goldfish pond, and steps leading to an additional lawn, is perfect for relaxing afternoons, alfresco entertaining or unwinding with your favorite tipple on a warm summers evening.
Completing the outdoor garden experience is a natural pond area, a haven for wildlife and a peaceful spot for quiet reflection adding an enchanting touch to the grounds.
A sweeping shingle driveway accommodates multiple vehicles, leading to a spacious double garage with an attached workshop—perfect for hobbies, storage, or additional utility.
