The kitchen/dining room lies to the rear extending to over 10 metres in length and is fitted with a range of modern base and wall units containing several integral appliances. Bi-folding doors flow out to a courtyard and an opening leads through to the downstairs sleeping accommodation, comprising three bedrooms, a shower room and separate WC. The layout is conducive to several different uses and multiple generational living. Upstairs is a large landing, two generous double bedrooms and a three-piece Jack & Jill bathroom.

The property is situated on a no through road enjoying an elevated position overlooking open countryside.

The property is approached off a quite country lane over a gravel drive which rises, flanked on either side by lawned gardens. The drive leads to a parking and turning area for several vehicles to the rear of the house which also gives access to a detached Dutch barn with lean-to. The barn is currently pending planning for residential consent (37/26/00008) but could also be utilised for garaging, workshops, gym, home office or other alternative uses subject to any necessary consent.
