Side access runs along the house, providing convenient entry to the garden without passing through the home.
And then there is the garden, the true star of the show. Stretching to approximately 130ft in length, it was the main reason the current owners fell in love with the property. It is a rare and versatile outdoor space that offers something for everyone.
Directly off the kitchen is a substantial patio area, ideal for outdoor dining and relaxing as a family. A brand new luxury hot tub sits proudly in this space and comes with a four year warranty, a premium addition that the owners are happy to include for the right buyer.
Further along the garden you will find a green cabin with electric and lighting, currently used as a gym but equally suited as a home office or additional accommodation space if required. There is also a wood store positioned conveniently for the multifuel burner in the living room. In addition to the cabin, there are three sheds and a greenhouse, along with a dedicated working garden area at the rear for those who enjoy growing their own produce.
A paved pathway runs neatly down the centre of the garden, guiding you towards a charming pond and on to the productive garden beyond.
Upstairs, the property offers two generous double bedrooms and a comfortable single bedroom. The principal bedroom enjoys stunning views across open fields to the front, while the rear rooms also benefit from views over paddocks and countryside, reinforcing the peaceful setting of the home.
This is a property that combines practical family living with lifestyle appeal. Generous parking, flexible internal space, a high specification kitchen extension and an exceptional garden make it a rare find. For buyers seeking space to entertain, room to work from home, and uninterrupted countryside views both front and back, this is a home that truly delivers.
