A covered porch to the front has quarry tiled flooring and gives access into a spacious reception hall with doors into the dining room, playroom and kitchen and stairs rising to the first floor. All receptions are of a good-size and bright and of good proportions. The playroom has double aspect windows to the front and side, as does the dining room which also includes a brick-built fireplace with wood burning stove. Viewers will note that plans have been passed (21/00781/HHA) to extend to the side and make a larger dining room or additional reception room. A large living room measuring 30’ x 12 has a triple aspect view and bi-folding doors which open onto an extensively paved patio. There are a further set of stairs in the living room which give access to the master bedroom suite on the first floor. A fabulous country style kitchen is fitted with wooden wall and base units and marble work surface over, integrated appliances include fridge / freezer and a large built-in wine cooler. A red brick inglenook provides space for a Range style cooker, and there is a stable type door off the kitchen which leads through to an inner lobby with access into the garden and a further door to the ground floor w.c. A spacious breakfast room has two large built-in storage cupboards, a feature stone fireplace and has been fitted with an island unit/dining table, providing seating to both sides.
Rising to the first floor an l-shaped landing provides access to four of the bedrooms and a stylish bathroom. There is a further bedroom which measures 23’7 x 12’2 max which has a triple aspect and which is accessed via a separate staircase located in the living room. As previously mentioned, all bedrooms are of a good-sized and proportion, with the two largest bedrooms having access to individual en-suite shower rooms.

This lovely home sits on a plot that measures in the region of 2.22 acres with views across open fields. Well tended gardens with lovely, neat lawns lay to either side of a paved pathway leading up to the front door. There is a large paddock with open, double fronted field shelter which our current Vendor uses to home Alpacas, but this could also be ideal for someone looking to home a pony or horse, and there are additional open fields within the plot that could also be used. To the immediate rear of the property is an extensively paved patio area and decking area which has ample space for hot tub and patio furniture, and there is a large outdoor, covered swimming pool inset into the patio.
