Description
The main house offers five bedrooms and three bathrooms on the first floor and three reception rooms, welcoming hallways, farmhouse kitchen with twin fuel Aga and a boot room and guest cloakroom on the ground floor. Particular attention should be paid to the folding doors between the living room and kitchen, perfect for entertaining with one sociable open space with doors to the rear garden or two more cosey rooms in the winter months with an open fire.
Externally the property occupies a plot of 0.47 of an acre with manicured and wonderfully private lawned gardens at the heart of the village and a gravel driveway offering parking for many vehicles. A garage block with car port and outbuilding extends to over 536 sq.ft and the final piece of the jigsaw is a stunning contemporary detached art studio with two floors of open plan space and a bathroom lending itself to so many uses.
Viewing is essential to appreciate the ‘complete package’ nature of this magical family home and its highly desirable location.

WHY WE LOVE THIS HOUSE...
"It’s a great place to live! We are right in the heart of the village yet the house is very private. We aren’t overlooked at the side or the back of the house and it is set back enough from Main Street not to be bothered by any traffic at the front. It’s been a great place to bring up our family. lots of space for our girls and their friends. Its central position makes it very safe for children to come and go to school buses, meet friends etc. It’s a great party house! We have had so much fun over the years with friends and family at numerous celebrations big and small. We designed the ground floor of the extension so that folding doors can open to create a really large space. There are plenty of rooms to host guests. We have put folding beds into living rooms so many people can stay! It’s a very versatile house; for 3 years our elderly mother lived in the 2 rooms at the front of the house. We have even had a film made in the house (our daughter filmed her award-winning short, Period Drama) accommodating the sets and several of the actors and crew!"
