This is an outstanding opportunity to acquire a high-specification family home in a pretty and well-positioned village.

Extending to approximately 2,234 square feet (including the garage) and with gas central heating and uPVC double glazing throughout, expect to find immaculate internal living space.

The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, a w.c., a bay-fronted sitting room and a separate family room. To the rear is a wonderful, fitted kitchen, opening into the dining room with a lovely South facing bay window and a fully glazed garden room with underfloor heating and an insulated roof, giving excellent inside/out living and views across the rear gardens. There is also a utility room and a separate boot room. Laid around a central landing are no less than five bedrooms. Four are large doubles, and a beautiful newly fitted family bathroom exists. The principal bedroom also has en-suite facilities.
