Upon entering the property, the welcoming entrance space offers immediate access to the main living areas, setting the tone for the spacious and bright interiors that are found throughout the home. The layout of the ground floor is open and flows effortlessly from room to room, combining a sense of connectivity while maintaining distinct areas for relaxation, dining, and daily living.
The hallway flows naturally into the kitchen, which is a beautifully modern yet rustic-inspired space. The shaker-style cabinetry is finished in a soft, neutral tone, perfectly paired with countertops that provide ample workspace. The kitchen area opens into the dining area which is a highlight of the home. This spacious area is perfect for hosting meals with family and friends, enhanced by the large bi-fold doors that open directly onto the garden. These doors create an inviting indoor-outdoor flow, ideal for summer gatherings or simply enjoying the view while dining. The natural light pours into the room, making it a bright and inviting space all year round.
The living room boasts large, double-glazed windows that stretch across the room, allowing natural light to flood the space, creating a bright and airy feel. The contemporary neutral decor is complemented by high-quality wood effect tiled floors, which add warmth and character to the space. At the centre of the room is a rustic wood-burning stove, framed by an original stone fireplace with chunky wooden lintels. This focal point gives the room a cosy, traditional charm, ideal for gatherings. The room is generously sized and can comfortably accommodate multiple seating arrangements, making it perfect for both casual lounging and more formal entertaining. The room continues seamlessly into an additional sitting area, which can be used as a snug, family room, or even a home office. This versatile extension of the living room provides a great space for those who need flexibility in their living areas.
Also to the ground floor is a fully tiled wet room, which features a rainfall showerhead, combining both style and functionality. The minimalist white sanitaryware is paired with matte black fittings, giving the bathroom a modern yet timeless appeal. A heated towel rail and ample storage ensure the space remains practical.
Heading upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to three generously sized bedrooms.
The principal bedroom offers a window which overlooks the garden, allowing for peaceful views and plenty of light. The room is decorated in soft, neutral tones.
The second bedroom is equally charming, with its feature exposed stone wall, which adds character and texture to the room. This room benefits from a large window, similar to the principal, allowing natural light to filter in. The space is flexible and can be used as a guest bedroom or secondary master suite. The rustic charm of the stone wall pairs beautifully with the modern design elements, offering a unique blend of old and new.
The third bedroom is bright and cheerful, with a large window offering views of the garden, and its layout can accommodate various furniture arrangements, including a double bed or twin beds, alongside storage.
The family bathroom combines rustic charm with modern luxury. A freestanding bathtub sits beneath a large frosted window, creating a bright yet private space. The walls are tiled in sleek grey porcelain, accented with a wooden strip for warmth and texture. A floating basin with matte black fixtures and an illuminated mirror adds a contemporary touch, while the walk-in shower, enclosed by glass, continues the minimalist aesthetic. The rustic wooden door with a black latch ties together the room's blend of modern and natural elements.
