Accommodation

Stepping inside, the accommodation has plenty of storage on both the ground and first floors with cupboards and a small boot room which has wall-mounted shower ideal for washing the dog.

The living space is accessed off the hallway with tiled floor and this includes a cosy, double-aspect sitting room with wood burning stove and stairs to the first floor, and a delightful double-glazed conservatory with French doors opening to and overlooking the adjacent garden, a radiator allowing for year-round use. Also off the hallway is a useful ground floor WC. The real hub of the house is the fabulous farmhouse-style kitchen/diner with plenty of cupboards and drawers attached and a touch of quality by way of solid surface granite countertops. There is a heritage style range (similar to an Aga) which is oil fired and is only used for cooking with two hot plates and three ovens, rather than firing the central heating system and hot water system, making it far more controllable than an Aga.

On the first floor, there are four bedrooms and a smart modern family bathroom with white suite. The principal bedroom is a real feature of the house with balcony overlooking the gardens and onto countryside and an up to the minute en-suite shower room/WC with mirror panelling adding a touch of glamour.
