    About this property

    • Extending to over 3,400 Sq ft, this substantial detached residence offers generously proportioned and highly adaptable accommodation. A welcoming entrance porch leads through to a spacious reception hall, providing an impressive introduction to the well balanced accommodation beyond.

      At the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed open plan kitchen and dining room, designed for both everyday family life and entertaining on a larger scale. The contemporary kitchen features a range of integrated appliances, extensive cabinetry and generous preparation space, while a separate utility room provides practical ancillary accommodation with direct access to the outside.

      Complementing the kitchen is a selection of reception rooms offering excellent flexibility for formal and informal living. The impressive sunroom is a particular highlight, flooded with natural light and perfectly positioned to enjoy the attractive garden setting throughout the seasons. Additional reception space provides comfortable areas for entertaining, relaxing with family or pursuing quieter interests.

      The ground floor also benefits from a spacious double bedroom served by a large bathroom, creating an ideal guest suite, independent living space or accommodation for those seeking predominantly single level living.

      To the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys a private terrace balcony providing an exceptional vantage point from which to appreciate the property's commanding position and picturesque rural surroundings. One further double bedroom supplements the first floor and enjoys the use of a private en suite bathroom. A separate WC serves the first floor. Completing the floor, a substantial reception room commands a significant position to enjoy the property with elevated views over the garden and the place for entertaining or relaxing.

      A particular feature of the property is the substantial self contained two bedroom annexe. Connected to the main residence whilst benefiting from its own private entrance, the annexe offers valuable independence and flexibility. The accommodation comprises two double bedrooms, each with en suite facilities, a fitted kitchen and a spacious sitting room with a bay window and balcony, perfectly positioned to take advantage of the elevated outlook. Alongside the flexible living, there is the option for one to remove partition walls to connect the main house and the annexe siting room creating a seamless flow between both sides of the property. Whether utilised for extended family, guests, independent living or potential income generation, the annexe represents a significant enhancement to the property's overall appeal.
