The property features spacious and light accommodation that has benefited from a number of recent improvements, including: Karndean flooring, replacement kitchen worktops and sink, and redecoration and new sanitary ware in the bath and shower rooms. The accommodation is as follows: a central entrance hall, with doors to a sitting room, kitchen/dining room and playroom/study. The sitting room features a dual aspect, with a double-sided fireplace and wood burning stove, which is shared with a garden room to the rear. The garden room has double doors which lead outside, as well as an opening leading into the kitchen/dining room. This is a lovely size room, providing plenty of space for cooking and entertaining. It is fitted with a wide range of wall and base units. Space is provided for a range style cooker, with fitted glazed splashback and extractor hood over. There is also an integrated dishwasher.
Off the kitchen is a utility room, which has a second sink and space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. From here, doors lead outside via a rear porch, into the garage and into a ground floor shower room.
On the first floor, a good size landing provides access to four double bedrooms. Three are fitted with built-in wardrobes and all enjoy far reaching views over the surrounding countryside, particularly the two that face to the rear. The main bedroom further benefits from an en-suite shower room. The first floor accommodation is completed by a family bathroom, fitted with a three piece suite, which includes a P-shaped bath with shower over.
Outside, to the front, is a gravelled garden and parking area. Parking is provided for several vehicles, with additional parking provided for one car within the integral garage. To the rear, the garden is laid to paved patio and enjoys views over the abutting land and countryside beyond.
Adjacent to the house is a field gate, providing access into the adjoining paddocks. These are laid to pasture and perfect for a horse or pony, or two. Within the larger of the paddocks is a stable and attached hay barn. The whole plot measures approximately one acre.
