Inside The Home

Combining the charm and character of a traditional period property with beautifully designed modern living spaces, this truly individual home offers an inspiring lifestyle for growing families, professionals and those seeking versatile accommodation. Having undergone an extensive programme of renovation and improvement, including substantial double-storey side and rear extensions, this impressive property offers a wonderful blend of character, comfort and contemporary style.

Entry is via a recently installed double-glazed front door, opening into the spacious lounge. The current owners have thoughtfully removed the dividing wall between the former lounge and dining room, creating a generous, open reception space that feels both welcoming and sociable. A beautiful box bay window draws in natural light, while a striking log-burning stove provides a cosy focal point, complemented by a further open chimney breast that retains the property's traditional appeal. The result is a lovely balance of period character and modern styling, with a relaxed, almost rural feel. The real heart of the home is the impressive rear extension, where a stunning open-plan kitchen/diner provides the perfect setting for modern family life. The contemporary kitchen features stylish cabinetry, extensive worktop space and attractive under-cupboard lighting, creating a practical yet elegant environment for cooking and entertaining. Skylights enhance the natural light, while sliding doors open directly onto the rear garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. A further log-burning stove adds warmth and atmosphere, making this a wonderful space in which to cook, dine, entertain, play or simply relax together. Accessed from the lounge, the ground-floor side extension provides a beautifully presented double bedroom, complete with patio doors opening onto the front garden. A modern en-suite shower room adds convenience and flexibility, making this an ideal space for guests, older relatives or those seeking ground-floor accommodation. Further practical features include a useful utility room on the first floor, providing dedicated space for laundry appliances and everyday household essentials. The property also benefits from a cellar which has been damp-proofed, offering valuable additional storage.

The first floor of the original house retains three bedrooms, comprising two doubles and a single, offering flexibility for families of all sizes. Whether required as children's bedrooms, a home office, a dressing room or a dedicated playroom, these rooms provide plenty of scope to suit individual needs. A family bathroom serves this part of the accommodation and comprises a three-piece suite. The double-storey side extension continues upstairs to an exceptional master bedroom suite. Beautifully designed to create a light and tranquil retreat, this generous double bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and an impressive en-suite bathroom. A freestanding bath sits beneath a large skylight, flooding the space with natural light, while a separate shower adds everyday practicality. The contemporary finish and thoughtful design create a luxurious sanctuary away from the main living areas.

The renovation has been extensive, with improvements including updated electrics, boiler, plumbing and roofing, alongside underfloor heating to the kitchen/diner.
