The kitchen is complemented by a large utility room and boot room. There is also a cloakroom W.C. and a useful understairs study nook. At first floor level are four bedrooms, the largest of which has an en-suite shower room. Two more are comfortable double rooms and the fourth a very large single/small double. The family bathroom has a freestaning bath. All of the rooms are set off the large landing which is flooded with light thanks to the vast picture window on the stairs. Externally the property sits within approximately two acres and is approached from the road by a sweeping tarmac driveway. Ample parking is provided to the front and side, with a large detached hayloft at the rear having a double carport below and a spacious multipurpose storage room above. There is a large and private paved patio at the rear of the property with the benefit of some smaller outdoor stores and an area of raised beds adjacent to a small orchard. The real highlight though is the large L-shaped paddock and stable which sits to the rear of the property. Currently a registered smallholding, the property is ideally suited to those with an equestrian interest or those looking to keep animals.
