The good sized sitting room has a large square bay window overlooking the front garden, stairs rising to the first floor and door to the study. There is also a stone fireplace with timber mantelpiece and multi-fuel burner, exposed ceiling beam and the original exposed pine floorboards that continue into the study.
The kitchen has plenty of room for a table and chairs for breakfast or for casual dining. There is an electric Aga (about 2 years old) that has two hot plates and choice of three ovens. The rest of the kitchen is freestanding with the exception of the sink and drainer - allowing for personal choice. There is also a useful utility room with a Butler style sink plus space and plumbing for a washing machine and other appliances.
First Floor
The long landing has doors leading off the bedrooms and bathroom. It benefits from a window to the rear and has the original exposed pine floorboards that continues into all first floor rooms. The bathroom is fitted with a suite consisting of a pedestal wash hand basin, WC and bath with mixer tap and telephone style shower attachment, wood panelled side and splash back. There are three bedrooms, two double sized and a very generously sized single bedroom - all overlooking the front garden.
Outside - 6.83m'' x 2.90m'' (22'5'' x 9'6'') - Garages and Parking
From Ham Lane, double timber gates open to a large block paved drive with space to park about four cars. There is a large oak framed and lined double garage (6.83 m x 5.89 m/22'5'' x 19'4'') with attached car barn (6.83 m x 2.90 m/22'5'' x 9'6'') - both with light and power.
Gardens
From Burton Street there is a timber gate set into the stone wall that opens to a path leading to the front door. The rest of the frontage has been attractively landscaped with a further path that divides the lawn from the deep well stocked shrub and flower bed. Metal railings edge the garden on the drive side and a gate opens to the drive. There is also a work from home insulated timber cabin that benefits from light, power, telephone and internet. At the back of the house there is the oil tank and boiler room. There is another garden where there is a timber shed and shrubbery and a curved path leads to the 'secret garden', which has been designed to attract wildlife. However, this could be re-landscaped to your own choice.
