Description
This stunning, character-filled home perfectly blends modern conveniences with timeless charm. Beautifully extended, the property is arranged over multiple levels and boasts exposed stonework, timber beams, and a host of contemporary features.
As you step through to the entrance hallway, you are greeted by steps leading down to a well-appointed boot room, providing a practical space for outdoor storage.
Further steps guide you to the newly extended kitchen, a bright and contemporary space that serves as the heart of the home. This modern kitchen is equipped with underfloor heating and air conditioning, ensuring year-round comfort. The expansive bi-folding doors, fitted with blinds, open to reveal stunning views of the south-facing courtyard, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living.
The kitchen itself is a chef’s delight, featuring a built-in island with two separate breakfast bars, sleek quartz countertops, and state-of-the-art integrated appliances. The induction hob with a fan, double oven, and fridge freezer are perfectly complemented by integrated lighting and a large skylight that floods the space with natural light. The Belfast sink adds a touch of traditional charm, while exposed stone and timber beams enhance the kitchen’s character and warmth.
As you move through the kitchen, you’ll discover an expansive open plan dining and living area that seamlessly connects with the kitchen. This versatile space is perfect for both casual family meals and entertaining guests, with ample room for a large dining table and additional seating. The flow between the kitchen, dining, and living areas ensures a light and airy ambiance, enhanced by the natural light streaming in through the large skylight and bifolding doors.

Ascending the steps, you will find a convenient storage cupboard. The family bathroom is designed with both functionality and style in mind, featuring a bath and shower with a window that allows natural light to fill the space.
