Description
The accommodation begins with an enclosed porch leading into a welcoming entrance hall, enhanced by a stained glass window, a useful under stairs storage cupboard and a convenient guest WC. To the front, the lounge provides a cosy retreat, featuring a charming open fireplace and a bay window.
Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the stunning previously extended open plan kitchen, dining and family room, designed to offer an exceptional social and entertaining space. This impressive, versatile area can be zoned to suit individual needs and is currently arranged with a lounge area centered around a wood burning stove with alcove shelving to either side. The dining and kitchen area sits beneath a striking vaulted ceiling with three Velux windows, while bi-folding doors span the rear. The stylish kitchen is fitted with a breakfast island, quartz worktops and a range of integrated neff appliances, with the added benefit of an adjoining utility room. The bi-folding doors, which include a practical built-in ‘dog door’ within the glass pane, open up the entire space to create a superb indoor-outdoor living experience.
Upstairs, the first floor offers two generous double bedrooms with space for wardrobes, alongside a well proportioned single bedroom. These are served by a modern, refurbished family bathroom.
Outside
Externally, the property enjoys a beautifully landscaped south easterly rear garden, featuring a decked seating area, a lower level lawn with a block paved pathway to the side, and well stocked planted borders.

Gated side access runs along the house, and to the front, a substantial block paved driveway sits behind a wooden five bar gate, providing ample off road parking.
