With its original stone walls and beamed ceilings, the home exudes timeless elegance, while modern additions like the garden room and updated kitchen cater to today's lifestyle.
Inviting Entrance
A welcoming oak porch with a glazed roof provides a sunny entrance, perfect for storing boots and coats after a countryside walk. Step into the hallway where the original stone wall serves as a gentle nod to the property's rich history.
Elegant Dining Room
The dining room, once the original kitchen, now serves as an excellent space for entertaining. Featuring oak flooring and a charming powder-blue Rayburn, it offers a formal dining experience with a touch of rustic charm. Adjacent to the dining room are a convenient WC and a utility room housing the boiler and laundry facilities.
Cosy Living Room
Located in the oldest part of the house, the living room boasts original stone walls and a cosy fireplace. Built-in bookshelves and ample space for sofas make it an ideal spot for relaxing evenings.
Sunlit Garden Room
Bi-fold doors open into the garden room, where natural light floods the space through expansive glazing and a roof lantern. This versatile area seamlessly connects to the kitchen, creating an open-plan environment perfect for family gatherings and entertaining. During warmer months, the double doors lead to a south-facing terrace, blending indoor and outdoor living.
Heart Of The Home: The Kitchen
An archway from the garden room leads into the kitchen, the heart of the home. East-facing windows allow morning sunlight to pour in, illuminating the white shaker-style units topped with granite worktops. A double Belfast sink is strategically positioned to take advantage of the magnificent views. The kitchen is equipped with an American-style fridge freezer, built-in wine rack, integrated dishwasher, and a Lacanche range-style electric double oven with an induction hob. A door from the kitchen leads back into the front hallway, offering a lovely flow through the house.
Comfortable Bedrooms
Ascending the stairs to the first floor, you'll find the principal bedroom—a peaceful haven with outstanding views across the vista. The luxurious en-suite bathroom features a free-standing bath, wash hand basin, WC, and a large walk-in shower with a drying area. A smaller bedroom, accessed from the landing by a few steps, serves as a dressing room with built-in wardrobes and space for a dressing table.
The second bedroom offers two windows overlooking the views, a built-in wardrobe, and an en-suite shower room, making it an ideal guest room. Another smaller bedroom on this floor serves as a lovely home office space with fitted bookshelves but could also function as a sixth bedroom if required.
On the second floor, there are three spacious bedrooms, each taking full advantage of the fantastic views with window seats or space to position a desk. A bathroom with a shower, wash hand basin, and WC serves the bedrooms on this floor.
Enchanting Outdoor Spaces
The south-facing terrace is perfect for enjoying long summer afternoons with panoramic views as a backdrop. Tiered lawned areas feature mature flower-filled borders, established trees, and impressive Rhododendrons and Camellias. A pond attracts a wide variety of insects and wildlife, and a vegetable plot allows you to grow your own produce.
