      Four reception rooms include an attractive well proportioned drawing room with LPG gas fire, marble surround, and sash windows to two aspects, a sitting room with impressive inglenook fireplace, a study/home office with Neville Johnson joinery and, open to the kitchen, a light and airy dining/family room with wood flooring, deep bay and roof lantern.

      The kitchen is bespoke fitted with a range of hand painted cupboards and central island, together with granite worksurfaces. There is an oil fired AGA, Miele oven, a microwave and warming drawer, Fisher & Paykel fridge/freezer and an integrated Miele dishwasher. Off the kitchen there is a rear hall and a utility room with space for white goods.

      On the first floor the principal bedroom suite enjoys a lovely outlook and has a marble fireplace with LPG fire and Neville Johnson cupboards, a dressing room with further fitted cupboards and an en suite shower room. Over the remainder of the first and second floors there are three further good sized bedrooms, all with built in cupboards and served by two bathrooms, including the family bathroom with spa bath bath and an en suite shower room to bedroom two.

      Hazelpits Farm is approached over a private drive, shared with two other properties, culminating in a generous area of parking in front of the detached timber framed garaging.
