About this property

  • Constructed of red brick elevations with a pitched, tiled roof, this property was built in the early 1900's. A two story extension was added to one side and a conservatory to the opposite side in 2017/18.

    The entrance hall stairs rise to the first floor and access all other reception rooms. Off to one side, the dual aspect siting room with a log burner is on the left and has been extended to create a generous room to include a study arear. This is a sunny, bright room. Across the hallway is the dining room with an open fire and views to the front, ahead of the dining room is the conservatory which has views to the fields beyond and creates a link to the kitchen. The kitchen which is also accessed from the entrance hall has a range of floor and wall units and integrated appliances including a dishwasher, fridge/freezer and a Stoves range cooker with induction hob. Returning to the hall, there is a cupboard under the stairs, a shower room, a utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer and rear door to the garden.

    Upstairs is a principal bedroom which benefits from the two storey extension added to create a good sized room with fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms, both with built in wardrobes and a family bathroom on the first floor.


    OUTSIDE
    Approached from the lane, via a 5 bar gate, the drive has ample parking for several cars and a double garage. A large cabin with power (which could be utilized as an outside office) is located to the rear of the garage. The garden wraps around the house with a patio area to the side taking full advantage of the view and sunset, there is a further area of level lawn with flower beds, trees and shrubs and a triple bay workshop/storage shed and a wooden greenhouse.

    Overall the property and garden are very well presented enjoying views and good access to the countryside.

This period house has such a lovely feel, the sitting room has been thoughtfully extended and I love the outlook to the fields beyond.
