Orchard House is a stunning Grade II listed stone detached property which has been renovated and extended by the current owners. It was originally two cottages, dating back to 1650 and 1849.

The house has plenty of characteristics including exposed beams, wood burning stoves and stone mullion windows and has been upgraded with contemporary features such as bespoke double glazing fitted throughout and air source heating.

The front door leads through into the reception hall with stairs to the first floor and direct access to three of the four spacious reception rooms.

The kitchen is situated at the rear of the property and forms part of the more recent extension, it has under floor heating and three sets of bifold doors leading out onto the terrace and adjoining gardens offering fabulous views of the pond and paddocks beyond. The contemporary kitchen has an electric Everhot oven, combination /microwave oven, Fisher and Paykal Fridge/freezer and drawer dishwasher. There is a large island unit with a breakfast bar ideal for entertaining and food preparation.

This leads through into the garden room which could also be used as children's playroom or snug.

The sitting room has dual aspect views with exposed beams furnished with a wood burning stove. Adjacent to this is the study with stone mullion windows looking out over the front drive.

The dining/family room has a large inglenook fireplace complete with salt cupboard and wood burning stove.

There is a useful utility room with quarry tiled floor and plenty of storage which leads through to a further entrance hall with WC, perfect for taking off muddy boots. There is also internal access to the garage and to the cellar.

There is a large entertaining terrace accessed from the kitchen/breakfast room seamlessly linking the two together, with a BBQ area and log store and plenty of cosy seating areas to enjoy the sun from all angles.
