Of particular note is the wonderful kitchen with quartz worksurfaces and electric ‘Aga’. Four bedrooms reside on the first floor including the sizable principal bedroom suite, eccentricated with a vaulted ceiling and double glazed doors on to the balcony, serviced by a large ensuite bathroom. Versatility comes in the form of a ground floor bedroom. The property is gracefully enveloped by mature private gardens on three sides creating a rare sense of seclusion. Predominantly laid to lawn, the grounds are landscaped with vibrant well stocked flower beds and a variety of established fruit trees offering colour, fragrance and seasonal interest throughout the year. A sizable central pond forms the focal point of the garden perfectly placed to be admired from both the expansive decked terrace and the covered veranda at the rear of the house. This idyllic setting provides a picturesque backdrop for entertaining. The driveway to the front of the property provides ample parking and access to the attached double garage.
