Accommodation As with many rural homes, the principal day-to-day entrance is to the side of the property. A double-glazed door opens into the impressive 27ft kitchen/breakfast room, a light-filled space fitted in a country-style design with tiled flooring, generous work surfaces, and ample storage. Roof lights flood the room with natural light, while double-glazed French doors open directly onto the rear garden. An internal door provides convenient access to the integral garage/workshop.
Beyond the kitchen lies the family bathroom, one of two spacious washrooms in the house, and is fitted with a roll-top bath, separate shower cubicle, pedestal wash basin, and low-level WC. To the left of the kitchen, an inner hallway, laid with original flagstone flooring, forms a characterful central hub to the house and offers enough room to provide further living space. A wood-burning stove provides warmth and atmosphere, and the space comfortably accommodates a study or reading area. Stairs rise from here to the first floor.
A door leads into the dining room, a charming and welcoming room with painted ceiling beams, a window overlooking the front of the property, and a fireplace with log-burning stove, providing ample room for family dining and entertaining.
Completing the ground floor is the exceptional sitting room, a dramatic and memorable space with a vaulted ceiling and a distinctive mezzanine gallery running around its perimeter. French doors open onto the garden, while a multi-fuel stove enhances both comfort and character, making this a truly special reception room.
On the first floor, a landing provides access to three generous double bedrooms, each oozing with character.
The principal bedroom, positioned to the rear, is approached via a spacious ensuite bathroom fitted with a bath, pedestal basin, and low-level WC. The bedroom itself is bright and elegant, with wooden flooring and a Juliette balcony offering lovely views across the garden and land beyond.
Bedroom two is a particularly large double room, enjoying far-reaching countryside views and offering potential to be divided into two rooms if required.
Bedroom three is another comfortable double bedroom with fitted storage and similarly attractive views.
Outside From the road, the integral garage is accessed via double timber doors and provides parking for at least one vehicle, together with light, power, and useful storage or workshop space. In addition, the property benefits from a gravelled parking area offering plenty of off-road parking, enough for several vehicles, with gated access from the road and a charming timber bridge leading into the garden. To the rear, the garden is well established and thoughtfully arranged, with a patio area immediately adjoining the house, leading onto a generous lawn bordered by hedging and interspersed with mature trees.
A garden shed and uninterrupted views across adjoining land complete this peaceful and private setting.
Available by separate negotiation is a 2.3-acre paddock, situated opposite the house and accessed from Field Road. The paddock benefits from two access gates and offers considerable potential for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary consents.

**P.S. ** A few extra comments Mortgages – we can help. Bridging loans – We can help. Moving house is complicated and stressful when a sale and purchase need to be tied together in terms of finance and timing. Sometimes we can negotiate an agreement to suit both sellers and buyers. Sometimes a bridging loan can solve problems and remove stress. Call us for information on any of these points
