Entrance Hallway - A grand entrance to the home with eye-catching encaustic floor tiles, the hallway has a high ceiling with chandelier fitting and ornate solid pine staircase to the upper floors. There is a radiator, fitted meter cupboard on the right and under-stairs cupboard. Matching pine doors lead into the sitting room, dining room and open entrance to the dining kitchen.

The high ceiling has a distinctive ceiling rose around the light fitting. The beautiful fireplace is cast iron, with decorative tiled surround and a tiled hearth, set within a large matching mantelpiece. Fitted cupboards and shelving in alcoves each side provide useful storage. The room has lots of space for sofas and furniture.

Dining Room - 5.2 x 3.65 (17'0" x 11'11") - Another beautiful room, this has exposed oak floorboards, timber-framed sash windows in the bay and an impressive fireplace. We also love the detailing of the ceiling rose, coving and picture rail. The tall east-facing window floods the room with natural light.

The fireplace has a tiled hearth and surround with large decorative marble mantelpiece. The room includes a radiator, ceiling light fitting, panelled wall under the bay window and plenty of space for a 6-8 seater dining table.

Dining Kitchen - 5.5 x 3.3 (18'0" x 10'9") - Literally and metaphorically at the heart of the home, this huge dining kitchen has plenty of space for family and friends to gather around a large dining table. The large fireplace houses a wood burner and flue. Entering from the entrance hallway, the room stretches out to the right and has a tiled floor and high ceiling with two ceiling light fittings. Immediately on the left is a fitted pine dresser. To the right, the long wide solid pine U-shaped worktop has a range of country-style high and low cabinets with space for an oven. Below the high level cabinets are downlighters.

At the end is a wall-mounted cutlery rack and a window in the top left corner. There is space to the right of the fireplace for an American style fridge freezer. Beneath the window which looks into the conservatory is a double stainless steel sink and drainer with heritage-style chrome mixer tap. Below are cabinets, with space and plumbing for a dishwasher and up on the right is a wall-mounted glass fronted cabinet. A part-glazed door leads into the conservatory.

Conservatory - 3 x 2.85 (9'10" x 9'4") - Built in 2022, this modern conservatory is sympathetic to the style of the home, with a brick-built base and lots of crystal clear glazing. The tall angled roof and windows facing south and west bring lots of natural light in. The room has genuine cork tile flooring, wall lights and a cabinet with space and plumbing for a washing machine. There is plenty of space for a table and seating.

Stairs To First Floor Landing - Carpeted stairs with a banister on the right curve up to the large open first floor landing. This wonderful space has a ceiling light fitting and a tall sash window with enchanting views - and space beside for a large chair and table. It's a great spot to read or just relax and enjoy the views. Matching pine doors with brass handles lead into three bedrooms and the beautiful bathroom.

Bathroom - 2.9 x 2.67 (9'6" x 8'9") - In a home of wonderful rooms, this is our favourite! We love every aspect but the huge standalone bath is the standout feature. It has a heritage-style mixer tap with shower attachment and, overhead, a shower ring with monsoon shower head and is set upon a large porcelain-tiled plinth. The rest of the room has oak floorboards.

The wide elegant vanity unit has a Vitra rectangular sink with heritage mixer tap and there is a ceramic WC with integral flush. The room has two windows - both of which are timber-framed sash windows with patterned glass. There is a tall chrome vertical heated towel rail, airing cupboard housing a modern Worcester boiler, ceiling light fitting, recessed ceiling spotlights and walls which are variously tiled, panelled and painted.

Bedroom One - 2.8 x 2.35 (9'2" x 7'8") - This versatile room could also be a guest room, dressing room or home office. With painted oak floorboards, the room has a radiator, ceiling light fitting and sash window.

With lots of space for a bed, desk/dressing room and bedroom furniture, the room has sash windows, a radiator and ceiling light fitting.

Bedroom Three - 4.35 x 3.7 (14'3" x 12'1") - Of equal proportions to Bedroom Two, this room has even more beautiful elevated views over trees and rooftops to the gorge across the valley.

Bedroom Five - 4.35 x 3.75 (14'3" x 12'3") - This double bedroom is currently used as a combined home office, games room and music room. With lots of eaves storage, this room has exposed ceiling beams and a ceiling light fitting, radiator, Velux window and pine floorboards. There is also access to loft space over the bathroom and Bedroom One (5m x 3m approximately) for storage.

Side And Rear Gardens - At ground floor level, a path leads around the entire home, with outhouses and space for a log store at the rear. To the left of the home, a tiered gravel garden with red sumac tree leads up to the upper garden area.

The upper garden has a traditional dry stone wall boundary, lawn and hard-standing area perfect for a dining patio or shed. There is a brand new picket fence and jaw-dropping views across the valley to the gorge.
