The kitchen is clearly the heart of the home and a good-sized room with cream shaker style units providing ample storage and room for a dining table. A glass panel divides the kitchen from the sitting/dining room, giving a lovely open-plan feel. The sitting room benefits from sensational views across the village and valley, with sliding doors opening to a patio area, ideal for summer entertaining. The L shaped sitting room lends itself to a separate dining area. Four bedrooms are located on the ground floor, one of which is currently used as a dining room.

All of the bedrooms have been thoughtfully laid out to provide both comfort and ample storage space. A family bathroom and a useful coat cupboard, complete the ground floor.

Spindlewood's garden is an absolute delight. Well-stocked borders and a choice of seating areas for relaxing and soaking up the view, make the home an excellent lifestyle choice. A large kitchen garden is fenced off to the rear of the property and there is both a single and double garage, together with driveway parking.

Continue straight up the hill, with the war memorial on your left and then follow the road round to the left and Spindlewood is circa 20 yards along the lane on the right hand side.
