Set on a gently sloping sight, this home offers the best of both worlds with accommodation, both on the ground floor and the first floor and the conversion and the creation of an annexe to one side, which is ideal for a relative suite or suddenly looking to work from home.
The sitting/dining room is a fine room with door opening onto a generous sized decking at the front to take full advantage of the rural outlook beyond. The kitchen/breakfast room has been re-equipped with an extensive range of units, worktops in a u-shape, space for fridge, freezer and range cooker. A good size utility room offers access out to the rear gardens and links with a fabulous conservatory again, taking full advantage of the rural views and having double doors out into the garden and the adjacent car parking. The annexe is found adjacent and comprises a sitting/dining room, double bedroom with built in cupboards and ensuite shower room with wheelchair access.
Further, accommodation of the ground floor comprises a double bedroom on the western side with an updated shower room beside, and a former bedroom, which is now a through room, with storage cupboards and stairs that lead to an enormous main bedroom suite on the first floor with eaves storage and walk in clothes cupboard. A huge picture window on the western side offers a wonderful rural outlook. Completing the accommodation up here is the ensuite bathroom.
Outside
There is parking for several cars adjacent to the property whilst a farm track runs along the boundary up which the vendors have access. Gates open onto a concrete yard with parking for several vehicles which in turn gives access to the oversized workshop which would be ideal for someone wanting to restore classic cars or vehicles or such likes as there is plenty of height. From up this part of the garden, you can look back over the bungalow to the rural scene beyond - quite delightful.
The gardens are laid principally to lawn with well stocked beds and borders and have several areas to sit, to just take in the surroundings and enjoy the views. Under the vendor's guidance, there is a productive vegetable plot, several fruit trees, including Peach, Pear, Cherry plums, Apple - both cooking and eating, and such like. For somebody wanting the facilities of a popular village nearby yet having a rural surrounding.
Agents note
The lane to the side is owned by the farm behind and the agents are advised the Vendor has right of access across it to the workshop/back garden
