The living accommodation of this outstanding property features a beautifully executed conversion providing at the heart of the home an open-plan layout which brings together the kitchen, dining and living rooms in a way that feels both expansive and intimate.

Vaulted ceilings and bi-fold doors enhance the sense of space, drawing in natural light and framing views of the garden.

The kitchen combines classic cabinetry with contemporary function, including a large island that acts as a natural gathering point beneath a row of skylights. Sightlines stretch uninterrupted from the front of the house to the rear garden, enhancing the overall feeling of openness. Just off the kitchen, a dedicated utility room keeps day-to-day essentials tucked away while maintaining visual order in the main living space. A discreet cloakroom completes the ground floor amenities, positioned conveniently for guests and residents alike.

The sleeping accommodation is arranged flexibly across both floors, with five bedrooms offering a mix of character, comfort and practicality. The principal bedroom enjoys a vaulted pitch to the roofline, with an architectural window that looks out onto mature greenery, and benefits from both a bank of built-in wardrobes and its own en-suite shower room. A second en-suite bedroom provides further privacy and convenience, ideal for guests or family. The remaining three bedrooms are well-proportioned and served by a generously sized family bathroom, which combines traditional details with practical finishes. Angled ceilings and skylights give each space its own identity, while maintaining a calm, cohesive feel throughout. The layout supports a variety of needs - albeit family life, visiting guests or working from home.

Outside, the property is surrounded by mature trees and woodland, offering a rare sense of privacy and calm. Set back from the lane, the approach opens into a wide, gravelled driveway with ample parking and a detached double garage. At the rear, the garden feels both secluded and open, bordered by established planting and trees that provide shelter and a natural screen. A paved terrace runs along the back of the house, creating a generous outdoor area for entertaining or relaxing, with direct access from the main living space through wide glazed doors. There is a balance of soft lawn, shaded corners and hardstanding, making the garden easy to maintain without sacrificing space or potential. A separate outbuilding and covered area add practical flexibility, whether for storage, hobbies or workshop use.
