The Accommodation
The ground floor of this charming residence offers a wealth of characterful living space, beginning with a welcoming entrance hall that leads into a delightful snug featuring exposed ceiling beams and a large window overlooking the gardens. At the heart of the home, the impressive sitting room showcases a magnificent inglenook fireplace with a heavy beam and extensive period timbering, creating a warm and historic atmosphere. Adjoining this is a versatile study and a practical rear lobby that provides access to a well-appointed shower room. The spacious kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of traditional timber units, and integrated appliances, including a double oven and hob, all while maintaining a bright aspect with views of the exterior.
The first-floor accommodation is equally impressive, cantered around a spacious landing that reveals the home's historic soul through exposed wall timbers and original floorboards. The principal bedroom is a substantial dual-aspect suite featuring vaulted ceilings, integrated storage, and a traditional timber latched door.
Four further well-proportioned bedrooms offer versatile family living, including bedroom two and bedroom three both of which retain charming period details such as decorative timbering and cottage-style windows. Serving the bedrooms is a generous family bathroom fitted with a classic suite comprising a bath, washbasin, and bidet, all accented by patterned tiling that mirrors the ground floor's aesthetic. Additional practicalities include several built-in cupboards and a dedicated space for the hot water cylinder, ensuring this substantial home remains as functional as it is historic.
Outside
The outside setting of the property begins with a welcoming frontage featuring a manicured lawn and a traditional cobbled driveway that provides ample off-street parking and leads directly to the front garage.
A charming timber door set within a tiled porch serves as the main entrance, while a small side lawn is bordered by mature hedging and greenery, ensuring privacy from the road. Following the driveway around to the side and rear, you pass a second, larger side garage and a secluded patio area ideal for outdoor dining. This leads into a substantial, wraparound rear garden primarily laid to lawn and fully enclosed by tall, dense hedgerows. The garden is thoughtfully landscaped with flower beds, a vegetable patch and a small orchard area.
