The Gatehouse is a substantial detached family home, which has highly attractive and flexible living accommodation, in a popular village location. The property offers five bedrooms and spacious, airy reception rooms with high-quality fittings throughout.
There is a welcoming reception hall, which greets you upon entry with its wooden parquet flooring, French doors opening on to the rear gardens and staircase leading to the galleried first floor landing. Off the reception hall, the main reception room is the approx. 26ft, triple aspect sitting room at the rear with its handsome brick-built fireplace, which is fitted with a wood burning stove. The ground floor also includes a formal dining room and a useful private study for home working, while the kitchen and breakfast room offers further social space for everyday living. It includes shaker-style units, a central island with a breakfast bar, an Aga and integrated appliances by Miele, as well as a walk-in pantry and space for a breakfast table.
Upstairs there are five well-proportioned double bedrooms, including the generous principal bedroom with its dressing room and luxury en suite bathroom with dual washbasins, a bathtub and a walk-in shower. One further bedroom has an en suite shower room, while the first floor also has a family bathroom with a separate shower unit.
At the front of the property there is a spacious block-paved driveway with ample parking for several vehicles, as well as access to the integrated double garage, which can offer additional parking, or be used as storage and workshop space. The gardens are mostly to the side and rear, and feature patio areas and timber decking for al fresco dining, with an expanse of level lawn beyond, which is bordered by mature trees and timber fencing. The gardens also include a timber-framed storage shed and gated access at the rear, on to a further gravel parking area.
