The property has been comprehensively updated and is presented to an excellent standard throughout. At the heart of the home is a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and family room extending to over 36 ft in length, creating an outstanding space for modern family living and entertaining. The kitchen is well appointed with a substantial central island and integrated appliances, whilst bi-fold doors open directly onto the rear terrace and garden, seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor spaces.
Complementing the main living area is a separate sitting room, a cosy snug and a dedicated study, providing flexibility for families as well as those working from home.
The first floor is equally impressive. The principal bedroom suite benefits from a dressing room and en suite bathroom, whilst four further double bedrooms are served by a family bathroom. In addition, there is a sixth single bedroom, ideal as a nursery, home office or additional space for those working from home. The layout offers excellent versatility for growing families, guests and modern family life.
Outside, the property is approached via a generous driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles and access to the integral garage.
A particular feature of the property is the rear garden. Beautifully maintained and enjoying a high degree of privacy, it backs directly onto open countryside, creating a wonderful sense of space. Predominantly laid to lawn, the garden is framed by mature hedging and established planting, with a spacious terrace providing an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. A dedicated hot tub area further enhances the lifestyle appeal, whilst the rural outlook beyond forms a superb backdrop throughout the year.
