4 bedroom house

Situated down a quiet country lane is this charming and attractive detached character cottage (not listed) occupying an outstanding rural location with no immediate neighbours and wonderful countryside views.

The garden and grounds offer excellent privacy, and incorporate various outbuildings, including a summerhouse, which has been transformed into a fabulous garden pub complete with bar, seating, lights and decked terrace; ample parking, a detached oak framed heritage style car port and separate garaging.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and has benefited from complete refurbishment by the current owners to provide a beautifully appointed family home whilst, retaining all the character of a period property.

The entrance porch opens into the welcoming entrance hall with a spacious coat/boot storage cupboard, window seat, oak flooring and exposed timbers. The open plan kitchen/breakfast/family room is a wonderful space and feels like the heart of this country home providing an extensive range of modern wall and floor units, AGA cooker, central island unit with breakfast bar and tiled flooring. The seating area is under the glass vaulted extension allowing for a lot of natural light into the room. The impressive brick Inglenook fireplace with Bressumer beam and cast iron wood burning stove completes this lovely room.

The first floor provides a large landing space suitable for an open study area, the principle bedroom with a dressing area, three further bedrooms and two bathrooms. All the bedrooms enjoy far reaching countryside views over neighbouring fields.

Externally the property is approached through an electronic five bar gate onto a spacious driveway providing access to the main house, double garage and detached double car port with a garden storage room. A portion of the garage has been converted into an office/workshop.
The garden is predominantly laid to lawn, wraps around the property totalling approximately 0.6 acres, and is enclosed by matured hedging. The extensive paved terrace offers ideal outside dining space and is accessed from sitting room and kitchen/family room.
