There are two reception rooms including the sitting room which opens to the dining room, which boasts a feature fireplace with a woodburning stove. The kitchen/breakfast room is a generously proportioned room fitted with attractive solid wood cabinetry, ample fitted worksurfaces with an inset one and a half sink unit with a mixer tap and drainer, electric hob, oven, grill and extractor, and space for a dishwasher. Patio doors lead from the kitchen out to a large conservatory with ceramic tiled flooring and French doors to the garden. Also off the kitchen is a handy utility room with a walk-in pantry, space for the usual white goods and a shower room.
Upstairs off the split-level landing are four good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Outside, the property is set back from the road and is screened by walling with a block-paved driveway providing off-road parking for four to six vehicles and leading to the double garage. Gated access leads to the rear garden, which is mainly laid to lawn with well-stocked flower and shrub borders and beds and a variety of mature trees and bushes with a 3000 litre rainwater collection system and external irrigation system. There is a summerhouse with a covered patio area, making an ideal home office plus a large workshop located at the bottom of the garden, which is currently utilised as a home gymnasium.
Please note that the property also boasts 16 solar panels plus 7.2 kwh batteries, which generates on average an annual income of £1300.00
