5 bedroom house

The property is approached via double wooden gates and a carriage driveway with plenty of parking. Set in nearly three quarters of an acre of land, this attractive and substantial house has the benefit of a self contained annexe above the garage.

The spacious reception hall provides access to the triple aspect sitting room with brick fireplace and log burner, French doors to the terrace and garden. The wonderfully light triple aspect formal dining room is to the front of the house with a serving hatch to the kitchen. The kitchen/breakfast room has a range of built-in appliances, double range oven and a walk-in larder. Adjacent is a useful utility room and workshop. Upstairs, the principal bedroom has plenty of fitted wardrobe space and shares a large en suite bathroom with the second bedroom. There are three further bedrooms and a family shower room.

The garden is south-facing with mature trees and shrubs. The grounds are mainly laid to lawn, with the sitting room opening out onto the paved patio area to make the most of the sun and is perfect for alfresco dining and socialising. At the rear of the property is a 6.5 acre field which is jointly owned by this and adjoining properties. The ownership agreement controls the use of the land.
