A neatly mown lawn and large, colourful Hydrangea sets the scene as you

approach this impressive home. A gravel drive provides additional parking in front of the detached garage located to the side of the property. Buil t in

the mid nineteenth century, this property retains many of the original features . High, vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and lovely window

seats come together to create a spacious home that is full of character. Steps lead up to the entrance door beneath a s torm porch whilst a lovely fig tree provides a little shade.

A decoratively tiled floor of the hall leads to a wooden s tai rcase, storage cupboards beneath, with banis ters in the gothic style, rising to the fi rs t

floor and continues to the other accommodation on the spacious ground

floor. There are two, spacious double bedrooms, both with large casement windows and window seats providing plenty of light. Large

chimney breasts create innovative wardrobe areas , the disused fi replaces provide additional storage, and the wooden floorboards are a delight. A thi rd, smaller double bedroom also has many of the same features . Opposite the third bedroom is a spacious WC, with a tiled -slate floor, a

modern WC with hidden cis tern and a hand basin. This large room has plenty of space for the future installation of a bath and shower if required.

To the fi rst floor, there is a split-level family bathroom, a kitchen/dining room, a sitting room, a s tudy and a fourth bedroom. The ki tchen/dining

room is fabulous room, with a twelve foot high vaulted ceiling and large window, feels extremely light and ai ry and has plenty of space for a dining

table and seating to cater for the largest of families. Exposed beams and a large, brick fi replace fi tted with a wood burning s tove, tiled hearth and substantial wooden surround and mantel, make wonderful features. The ki tchen contains all of the essentials, with a variety of base units and

matching eye-level cabinets , a sink and drainer below one of the windows, a dishwasher and an oven and hob with extract hood above. A separate larder provides ample storage for the groceries . The si tting room feels

warm and comfortable, and with two windows, natural light pours in. Exposed beams contrast nicely against the white ceiling and make a nice

feature. An area to the rear of the ki tchen is used as a s tudy by the current owners , an excellent use of space and this leads into the fourth bedroom. Another double, this room has a useful mezzanine s torage area above and has a lovely feature window with seat beneath.

Outside, there is an area of lawn to the front and a path leads between the garage and the entrance door to the extensive rear garden. A large lawn stretches into the dis tance, interspersed with conifers , cherry trees,

bamboo, mature shrubs and bushes. There is an area of hard s tanding,

perfect for a picnic or enjoying the peace and quiet in this spacious and wonderful garden. There is also a raised bed for growing the vegetables , a

timber child's playhouse and a large shed for s toring the garden furni ture

and lawn mower.
