5 bed detached house for sale

Main Street, Hethe OX27

A pretty period house which has been thoughtfully designed and well maintained by the present owner with views over open fields, bridge and village stream leading to the River Ouse. The porchway to the front of the house leads through to the main sitting room which has retained many original features including wooden floor boards, an open fireplace and alcoves. The study has stone flooring, an open fireplace and views over the fields to the front.
The modern kitchen has been beautifully transformed into the hub of the house ideal for family living. Whilst retaining many original features there is an aga in the brick fireplace, integrated appliances and a breakfast island. The open plan kitchen has the added benefit of leading through to the orangery allowing for good natural light and ample space for a table and chairs or a further seating area. From the orangery there are bifold doors leading out to the patio and parking area. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.
On the first floor there are four bedrooms all with their own individual characteristics. The two bathrooms are modern with roll top baths, showers and wooden floor boards. Overall a very comfortable house.
The annexe, at present used as further accommodation, has an open plan sitting room, bedroom and shower room.
