Beyond the gravelled driveway, the front door reveals a sanctuary of calming and welcoming that immediately leave one feeling they can decompress and leave the stresses of the outside world at the door. Whilst carrying a timeless and historic appeal, the home cleverly retains the versatility to accommodate the ever-changing demands of a modern family life. The sociable kitchen/dining room is well-equipped and perfectly balanced by the separate living room, ideal for cosy winter nights by the fire.
An ornate timber staircase leads to the first floor, home to two double bedrooms including the magical principal suite; a wonderfully proportioned room enjoying all the warm character of the exposed timbers and original brick fireplace. A beautifully curated en-suite bathroom serves this bedroom and completes a superb bedroom suite. The spacious second bedroom is well-served by the central family bathroom.
Rising to the second floor, two brilliantly versatile rooms are found. Equally capable as serving as charming bedrooms or additional receptions/studies or even hobby rooms, these top floor rooms are a wonderful space in which to make this house your home.
In addition to the driveway and front courtyard, a splendid secret garden awaits behind a handy outbuilding/store. The garden is a true delight and a hidden gem. It is elevated and south facing with views over the church and river, providing a delightful area for relaxing and entertaining. There is also a further shed with mains power and lighting.
