This delightful former manse is about 170 years old. The property is an appealing example of old meets new, with period features including high ceilings, intricate door frames, panelled doors, cornice work, oak floorboards, deep skirting boards, bay windows, fireplaces and arched alcoves. This original character is balanced by a more modern kitchen and bathrooms.

Accommodation:
An entrance porch glazed on all sides provides a garden outlook and is the original entrance to the property. French doors open into the hallway. With a south facing aspect are two reception rooms. The sitting room has a fireplace with a tiled inset and sandstone overmantel. The drawing room is a further elegant space with a marble fireplace housing a Severn wood burning stove. French doors open into the dining room housing a cast iron fuel effect gas stove. An open archway links through to the bright south facing dining kitchen which is fitted with a comprehensive range of solid wood cream coloured base and wall cabinets complemented by wooden worksurfaces. There is an integrated and concealed refrigerator and dishwasher and a focal point of the room is the black Rangemaster six ring range cooker with two ovens. A lovely casual and informal space is the garden room with French doors, Velux windows and two side windows. An inner hall has a sliding door leading to the double garage. The rear vestibule has a cloakroom with WC and wash basin. For everyday domestic tasks there is a utility room with plumbing for a washing machine, pine-lined ceiling and window. Overlooking the driveway is a ground floor bedroom which is a very versatile room. A first floor carpeted staircase has an ornate balustrade and leads to a mezzanine level. Generous in size is the contemporary main bathroom with freestanding deep oval bath, wash basin in a vanity stand and corner shower enclosure with rainfall shower, Italian marble flooring and skirtings. Ascending to the first floor is a high level window with cornice. The principal bedroom has lovely countryside and sea views and an en suite shower room with WC and wash basin. Opposite is bedroom two. Bedrooms three and four overlook the driveway. A concealed staircase leads to the loft space. With the necessary consents this could be suitable for further development.

Outside:
A horseshoe and gravel driveway with turning and parking for numerous vehicles. Stone walls enclose the 0.6 acre perimeter which makes a safe area for pets or young children. Mature trees, shrubs, fruit trees and bushes (some of which provide a burst of colour at seasonal times) provide a high degree of privacy and shelter.

Integral double garage with pitched and slate roof.
