Exquisitely refurbished family home in prime village location
This striking family home has been beautifully reimagined by the current owners, from the full refurbishment, extensions, the addition of an annexe and even modifying the heating to an air source heat pump and installing solar panels.

Set back from the road the property is approached by a private driveway and landscaped front garden.
The internal accommodation is set over three floors under pitched tiled roofs.

The walk in pantry completes the kitchen area. Located between the kitchen and the sitting room is a utility room fitted with further storage, plumbing for a washing machine and American fridge/freezer, space for a tumble dryer, integrated sink and external access via a side door.
The sitting room overlooks the front garden via a bay window that fills the room with natural light and two pairs of patio doors. The room is centred around a feature fireplace with bespoke cabinetry to either side. The property benefits from ground floor living as the office can act as a ground floor bedroom with open views of the front garden, the addition of the wet room, under floor heating and a Japanese cleaning loo.
Moving up to the first floor are four bedrooms. Three of the bedrooms are double rooms, benefitting from built in wardrobes and a single bedroom which could also be utilised as a study. The guest bedroom also has an en suite shower room with a large walk in shower, low level WC and wash basin.

The remainder of the front garden is full of colour with fully stocked raised beds and herbaceous borders.
