The Property

A generous reception hall creates an impressive sense of arrival, with stairs rising to the first floor and access to a ground floor cloakroom.

Casement doors open into a superb double aspect lounge, a beautifully proportioned room with tall ceilings and a built-in wood burning stove, creating an elegant yet comfortable principal reception space. A separate snug/family room sits to the front of the property and enjoys a charming bay window, providing further versatility for both formal and informal living.

The open plan kitchen/breakfast room is well appointed with an excellent range of fitted base, wall and drawer units, complemented by ample work surfaces. Integrated appliances include two electric ovens, an electric hob and dishwasher, while there is plenty of space for a table and chairs, making this a natural everyday hub of the home. A separate utility room provides additional storage, together with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. This is complemented by an adjoining boot room and wall-mounted gas boiler supplying the central heating and hot water.

To the rear, the conservatory offers a further living area, enjoying views across the garden and providing a pleasant connection with the outside space.

From the main entrance hall, a wide staircase rises to a spacious first floor landing with a large airing cupboard. There are four generously sized bedrooms on this level, two of which benefit from built-in wardrobes. The accommodation is served by two modern and stylish shower rooms. A study to the front aspect provides an ideal work-from-home space.

A further staircase leads to the second floor, where there is an additional bedroom fitted with built-in bedroom furniture and served by its own en-suite bathroom, finished with a modern three-piece suite.

Outside

The property is approached by a long sweeping drive which leads to a large parking forecourt. Double gates at the side lead to a side courtyard with additional space suitable for a motor home or trailer. There is also a double length garage. The rear gardens are mainly laid to lawn with boundaries formed by mature hedging. There are some flowering borders and some small ground covering plants and shrubs and a terrace which lies adjacent to the rear of the property.
