Inside


The accommodation begins with an inviting entrance, leading into a spacious ground floor where traditional features and generous room proportions provide an excellent foundation for modern family living. The oak kitchen has stood the test of time, offering a wealth of character and a practical setting for everyday cooking, while the adjoining dining room provides a natural space for family meals and entertaining. Beyond, the substantial lounge centres around a fireplace, creating a welcoming focal point for relaxing evenings and time spent together.

To the rear, an impressive conservatory extends the living space considerably, offering a versatile additional reception area complete with air conditioning. Whether imagined as a relaxed family room, an entertaining space overlooking the garden or a peaceful retreat to enjoy throughout the seasons, it adds another dimension to the home's flexible layout. A separate utility area and boot room further enhance the practicality of the ground floor, ideal for busy households, muddy countryside walks and the everyday comings and goings of family life.

There is also considerable scope to reconsider the arrangement of the ground floor, potentially creating a more contemporary open-plan environment or adapting the existing rooms to better reflect individual needs, subject to the relevant consents. For those looking to take the property further, the generous footprint offers the prospect of extending the accommodation, subject to planning permission.

Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation for family members and guests alike. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite, while the distinctive split staircase adds an appealing architectural feature and character to the first-floor layout. With space to accommodate growing families, visiting guests or a dedicated home-working environment, the property offers flexibility to evolve alongside its next owners.
Outside


The gardens are a particular highlight, offering a generous outdoor space with a variety of distinct areas to enjoy and develop. Rather than a single expanse, the garden lends itself to different uses, whether that means creating productive vegetable patches, establishing dedicated seating areas for summer entertaining or introducing a garden office or studio to provide a separate space to work, create or unwind, subject to any necessary permissions. There is plenty of room to explore different ideas while retaining space for children to play and for enjoying time outdoors.

To the front, a driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles and leads to a detached garage, offering valuable storage, workshop potential or space for hobbies. Together, the substantial garden, practical outbuildings and generous parking complement the spacious interior, completing a home with considerable appeal today and exciting possibilities for tomorrow.
