Unknown to the passers by the house offers an extensive 2,800+ square feet of accommodation, an outdoor space of every gardener’s dream, as well as a home office/garage and parking, all within a stone’s throw of the town centre and local bus routes.

More than just a home, Foster House is a rare find for families who want space and style while still retaining the charm and interest of an older home.

Stepping in through the front door and into the hallway, you have access to all the downstairs accommodation as well as the stairs to the first floor. To your left, you’ll find the sitting room, centred around the fireplace, making it the perfect space for the family to cosy up in the colder months. On your right is the formal dining room open to the kitchen; a further feature fireplace sits against one wall and sash windows with wooden shutters allow light to flood the room from either end. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units with space and plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher. In the centre is a kitchen island, and the work surfaces have been upgraded to a lovely stone adding light to the space. From the kitchen you also have access to the cellar, now forming a utility/pantry room to service the kitchen.

At the back of the house and up a small step is the study, positioned perfectly to overlook the extensive garden, with a downstairs cloakroom. Completing the accommodation on this floor is the boot room, with a dedicated area that keeps coats and shoes neatly organised, and a rear door into the garden.

Come up the stairs, which are an original feature, made from elm, beautifully hand-sanded and restored by the owners, and on to the landing: at the back of the house is bedroom five with a feature fireplace and overlooking the garden (tis is right next door to the shower room). Bedroom two is a large double and at the front of the house with a further feature fireplace. The largest bedroom sits opposite and has a separate dressing room which also provides access into the Jack and Jill bathroom, fitted with a modern white suite and a large tub overlooking the garden.

Walking up the stairs from the landing to the second floor, you’ll arrive at a light, spacious landing with loft access. Either side, you’ll find two well-sized bedrooms, each comfortably fitting a queen bed and boasting large windows with plush carpet underfoot. One room also includes an en suite shower room, put in by the current owners.
