This handsome detached Edwardian house, believed to date from around 1920, was originally built for a local doctor and his family. Extending to almost 4,000 sq ft, it offers extensive accommodation ideal for modern family living, thoughtfully refurbished and remodelled by the current owners since 1985. The interior features large, well-lit rooms with generous ceiling heights, most enjoying a south-facing aspect over the garden. At the centre of the house is a cosy sitting room with a wood-burning stove and garden access, flanked by the drawing room and dining room. A spacious family kitchen with double aspect adjoins a sizeable utility room, and there is also a family room with a fireplace. Upstairs are five double bedrooms, three with lovely views over the garden, along with three bath/shower rooms. A large loft with roof lights is accessed via an enclosed lobby with drop-down steps. Outside, a wide gravel driveway provides ample parking. The south-facing garden wraps around the house, enclosed by mature hedging and fencing, and includes a flagstone terrace, lawn, well-stocked borders, espaliered fruit trees and a kitchen garden with raised beds. A detached oak-framed outbuilding provides a double garage, wood store, workshop and first-floor studio/hobbies room.
