The west wing features three further double bedrooms. Two have built-in wardrobes and each are served by the impressive family bathroom with separate walk-in shower and large Velux windows.

Detached from the house is the large studio/office offering over 400 sq. ft of further living space. Bright and airy with vaulted ceilings and windows on three sides, it has been divided into two separate spaces with a generous store cupboard between and has a separate heating system from the main house making it an ideal home office or business space. There is clear opportunity to develop this into a self-contained annexe – subject to the usual planning consents.

About the outside:

The house is approached via a very private driveway which leads into a vast cobbled courtyard at the front of the house. There is parking here for several vehicles but there is a second driveway and rear entrance with access to a double garage with its adjoining workshop. This again has a large turning area and can accommodate several vehicles.

There are five separate garden areas which offer a variety of places to sit and enjoy this peaceful location. To the right of the property is a lawn bordered by mature hedges and shrubs. A wrought iron gate leads into another 'secret garden' with a monkey puzzle tree. To the left of the main house, a generous paved terrace accessed from the kitchen has steps down to a walled garden with a feature circular flower bed, small stone bothy and an arch in the wall leading to the greenhouse and rear access to the double garage. Alongside the driveway is another area of garden with numerous trees and ferns. The house is also surrounded by immaculate paddocks which belong to the neighbouring properties and offer wide open views of the local countryside.
