An exceptional village home in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with charming gardens, a detached Oast house and direct access to The Green.
Accommodation
The main house has been sympathetically updated and maintained by the current owners and features attractive rendered and tile-hung elevations beneath a pitched slate roof. The interiors are bright, airy and flexible, with large double-glazed casement windows and French doors offering far-reaching views and a seamless connection with the gardens.
The ground floor accommodation includes a generous dual-aspect sitting room with an open fireplace and French doors leading to a wonderful garden room – a bright and tranquil space ideal for year-round enjoyment. Adjacent is a well-proportioned study, and a separate dining/family room offering excellent versatility. The stylish kitchen/breakfast room has been fitted in a contemporary farmhouse style, with wall and base units, black work surfaces, a peninsular island with breakfast bar, an LPG gas two-oven Aga, and a range of integrated appliances including an oven and induction hob. A walk-in pantry, utility room with external access, and cloakroom complete the ground floor. Upstairs, the principal bedroom suite includes a dual-aspect outlook, fitted dressing area, and en suite shower room. There are five further bedrooms, one with an en suite, and all with pleasant views over the gardens. Two of the bedrooms are adjoining and could be separated if required. A family bathroom, separate WC, linen cupboard, and luggage room complete the first-floor accommodation.
Detached Oast House
A charming single roundel Oast house sits within the garden and provides ancillary accommodation – perfect for guest use, multi-generational living, a home office or continued use as a successful holiday let. The interior features an open-plan living/kitchen area, a shower room on the ground floor, and a spiral staircase leading to a mezzanine bedroom.
Gardens and Grounds
The gardens are a notable feature of the property. Designed to provide year-round interest, they wrap around the house and include well-tended lawns, colorful herbaceous borders, mature shrubs, cob nut trees, and a productive kitchen garden. A south-facing terrace provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining, and a gate gives direct access onto The Green. The property is approached via a gated driveway, offering ample parking and access to a detached double garage. Additional outbuildings include two substantial timber workshops and a summer house, ideal for hobbies or storage.
