This much-loved family home comes to the market for the first time in many years and offers an exciting opportunity for its next owners to create a home tailored to their own tastes and lifestyle.

The property is entered via an entrance porch leading into a spacious reception hall, from which all the principal ground floor rooms can be accessed. The generous sitting room enjoys an abundance of natural light, with west-facing sliding doors opening directly onto the patio and garden beyond. The sitting room flows seamlessly into the dining room, creating an excellent space for both everyday family life and entertaining.

The kitchen/breakfast room is well-equipped with a comprehensive range of wall and base units providing ample storage and workspace. Adjoining the kitchen is a sizeable utility room, which overlooks the garden and offers direct access outside. A study and cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys delightful views across the rear garden and benefits from a dressing room and en suite bathroom. There are four further well-proportioned double bedrooms arranged around the spacious landing, together with a family bathroom.

Outside, the gardens are a particular highlight of the property. Enjoying a south and west-facing aspect, they offer an exceptional degree of privacy and are beautifully established with a variety of mature trees and shrubs. Backing directly onto woodland, the gardens provide colour and interest throughout the seasons.

Immediately to the rear of the house is a paved terrace, ideal for al fresco dining and outdoor entertaining. Steps lead down to a further generous paved area featuring attractive parterre-style beds and a central focal point centred around the summer house. Beyond, the garden is predominantly laid to lawn and gently sweeps down towards the woodland backdrop.

To the front, the property is complemented by attractive landscaped gardens and a generous driveway providing ample parking, together with access to the double garage.
