A fitted air conditioning unit provides added comfort. A luxury En Suite Shower Room complements this Bedroom perfectly. Another of the Bedrooms also has the benefit of an En Suite Bathroom.

This property is a truly exceptional home, combining space, style, and versatility in a sought-after village setting and it is without doubt that you will find a home of this size and calibre which offers buyers the opportunity of owning a home that they can literally, open the door, place their furniture and enjoy village life immediately.

Outside
The property has a generous driveway approach with wooden double entrance gate with parking and turning area, allowing parking for numerous vehicles or motorhomes. Whilst there is large attached Garage 23’4” x 13’8”, there is still scope to build a further detached double or triple garage to the front garden subject to any necessary consents. The gardens to the front are lawned, with well stocked, colourful flower beds and borders and a variety of mature trees. Being south facing, there are several patio and seating areas to the front and complete privacy. To one side is a block built detached workshop/store, timber garden shed and an area which had previously been used as a chicken run. To the other side is a greenhouse and following this path around to the rear there is a large patio area ideal for outdoor dining and socialising. Again with ample lawned areas, colourful flower beds and mature trees.

Agents Note:
In addition to Ellislake, there is an available separate building plot that the vendors may sell. This additional plot would be acquired through separate negotiation, providing a unique opportunity for buyers seeking expansion or investment potential. Prospective buyers interested in this plot should engage in separate discussions to agree on terms and conditions specific to this additional purchase.
