The galleried landing leads to the first-floor bedrooms, each of which enjoys far-reaching views over the garden and surrounding countryside. The principal bedroom is a generous dual-aspect suite with built-in wardrobes and a private balcony, offering an idyllic retreat. Two further well-proportioned bedrooms feature Juliet balconies and fitted storage, while the luxurious family bathroom boasts a large walk-in shower with body jets, a freestanding bath, and twin floating basins, combining elegance and practicality in equal measure.

On the second (top) floor, a superb loft bedroom is complemented by Velux and circular picture windows, offering elevated vistas of the gardens and countryside beyond. Ample eaves storage adds practicality without compromising the sense of space and light.

The property sits within beautifully landscaped grounds of approximately 0.38 of an acre. The southerly aspect ensures maximum sunlight throughout the day, while the garden itself is designed for both beauty and enjoyment. A swimming pool with sandstone terrace, barbecue area, koi pond, and expansive lawn provide a versatile outdoor space for entertaining or relaxing in privacy. A sweeping horseshoe gravel driveway, bordered by mature shrubs and trees, creates a grand approach to the property and leads to a garage with electric doors to both front and rear.
