Full Details

Beautifully presented by the current owners with many modern-day features, this excellent property offers well-proportioned floor space with large windows that allow the light to flood in. A fresh and neutral colour palette complements elegant wood flooring together with an exceptionally long, sunny garden that maximises the amazing views over farmland, this is a house not to be missed.

Set back from the road, entry is through a bright porch and into the hall with the stairs to the first floor ahead of you. To the left is the living room, which has a lovely bay window looking out over the front. Central to the room is a fireplace with a log burner sitting on a tiled hearth with a wood surround and mantel above.

From the living room is the door into the fabulous kitchen which has an engineered wood floor and a range of two-tone wall, base and drawer units providing ample storage space, with and work surfaces and upstands above. Beneath the window is an enamel sink with a mixer tap and to one side is space for a washing machine. Opposite is a built-in double oven with cupboards above and below while at the end of the kitchen is an induction hob with an extractor hood above. Just off the kitchen is a useful storage room, which has a wall-mounted cupboard and shelf below. From here is the stunning fully tiled shower room with a modern suite and double shower cubicle with a glass door.

At the rear of the property is the outstanding garden room with a wood floor and windows on two sides, making the most of the views over the garden and beyond. Double-glazed twin doors are on the right, opening onto the wrap-around decking, while a bench seat with cushions sits below the rear window.

An L-shaped first-floor landing opens to three well-appointed double bedrooms, one of which features fitted wardrobes with attractive wood-panelled doors, as well as access to the loft. The sumptuous, fully tiled bathroom is splendid and features a three-piece suite with an electric shower over the bath and a glass shower screen.

Outside, at the front, the block-paved driveway provides room for parking two cars off the road. Through an archway on the right of the property, a side access guides you to the exceptionally long rear garden. Mature hedges and wood fence panels on either side give you plenty of privacy with the lawn broken up halfway down by a former vegetable bed. Wood decking wraps around the garden room while at the bottom of the garden, a low hedge allows you to make the most of the magnificent, far-reaching views over farmland from the garden room and the garden itself.

Without doubt; this superb first or second home deserves an early viewing to truly appreciate the wonderful charm and space this property offers.
