From the moment you step inside, this charming home reveals itself as a haven for family life. Brimming with character and beautifully balanced between practicality and elegance, the generous accommodation and wraparound gardens offer space, light, and endless possibilities for every generation.
The SITTING ROOM is an inviting space – perfect for quiet evenings or lively family gatherings – centred around an open fireplace with a handsome stone surround. A bay window to the side and dual aspect picture windows flood the room with light, while built-in shelving provides a place for books, games, or treasured mementos.
At the heart of the home, the DINING ROOM is made for mealtimes together – whether that’s relaxed Sunday roasts or special celebrations.
Dual aspect windows, including a bay to the front, create a bright and sociable atmosphere. Flowing seamlessly into the adjacent MUSIC ROOM this whole area is ideal for entertaining, with flexible space for everything from homework hubs to piano recitals or simply relaxing with friends.
The INNER HALLWAY features a handy understairs cupboard – ideal for shoes, school bags, or tucked-away toys. Tucked to one side, the SECOND RECEPTION ROOM offers a peaceful retreat and is complemented by a surprisingly spacious WALK-IN PANTRY – a real bonus for family storage and organisation.
The KITCHEN is designed with family life in mind – light, open and connected to the garden, perfect for muddy boots or letting the children dash outside to play. Wall and base units provide plenty of storage, while a built-in hob and high-level oven cater to busy meal prep. There's even direct access into the garage – ideal for unloading after the weekly shop. Just off the kitchen is a fabulous STUDIO/PLAY ROOM – a bright, dual aspect space with patio doors opening onto the garden. Whether used as a playroom, art studio, or teen hangout, it’s a space full of potential.
Also on the ground floor is a SHOWER ROOM with wood-effect flooring, a walk-in shower, W.C, and access to the side – practical for post-garden clean-ups or visiting guests.
Upstairs, natural light continues to pour in via a picture window at the half landing. The wide LANDING is adorned with picture rails and wall lights, lending a sense of character throughout. Two separate cloakrooms here make busy mornings a little easier.
The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is a peaceful retreat. A lovely bay window frames far-reaching countryside views, a discreet built-in sink is hidden away, fitted wardrobes help with storage and a door to the front leads out to a well set balcony.
BEDROOM TWO is ideal for younger family members or guests, with a charming bay window overlooking the garden and pond. Built-in wardrobes, a hidden sink, and a side window ensure comfort, space and light. BEDROOM THREE also has access to the balcony and includes a built-in sink and storage – perfect as a teenager’s room or hobby space. BEDROOM FOUR, with dual aspect windows, is another generous room with excellent storage and its own concealed wash area.
The first of the two bathrooms is the FAMILY BATHROOM. This features a bath with mixer taps, ample storage, and a pedestal wash basin; the second offers a bath with shower over and a window to the side – ideal for family routines.
Outside
The outdoor space is just as impressive as the interior. The wraparound garden is largely laid to lawn – perfect for children to run and play – with mature trees offering privacy and shade. A charming ornamental pond adds character, while fruit trees, raised potting beds, and patio areas provide space for relaxing, gardening or alfresco dining. A wooden shed offers storage for bikes or garden tools, and a DOUBLE GARAGE with electric roller door, overhead storage, power and lighting adds even more flexibility. Separate vehicular access from Abbey Road provides practicality, while a substantial driveway means there’s ample parking for family and guests alike.
Location
