Step Inside: Elegance and Spaciousness
As you enter through the welcoming and open hallway, you are immediately greeted by the bright and airy end-to-end through lounge, featuring dual-aspect windows that bathe the room in natural light. The lounge provides a perfect setting for family gatherings, cozy evenings in front of the fireplace, and entertaining guests.
The heart of the home is the expansive kitchen and dining room, which boasts an impressive Rayburn aga cast-iron cooker—a nod to traditional farmhouse charm—serving as both a functional appliance and the primary heating source for the home. This well-appointed kitchen also includes granite worktops, ample floor-based and wall-mounted storage units, and space for an American fridge-freezer. The adjacent stable doors lead to the garage and repurposed utility rooms, providing additional storage and kitchen facilities, all seamlessly connected to a large conservatory that overlooks the magnificent rear garden.
A guest WC completes the ground floor, adding to the home's practicality and convenience.
Outdoor Living: A Garden Oasis
The rear of the property opens up to a cottage-style, three-tiered garden that has been lovingly maintained and offers a perfect space for outdoor dining, relaxation, and entertaining. This enchanting garden features a brick-constructed wood fire pizza oven, dense woodland surroundings, and plenty of room for children to play and adults to unwind.

The master suite exudes elegance with its refined paneling and dual-aspect views, opening to a private balcony terrace—perfect for savoring morning coffee or embracing serene garden views while working from home. Imagine the luxury of walking on 22mm engineered oak herringbone flooring, a touch of nature underfoot.
The second bedroom, an elegant extension of the home, features a newly fitted Victorian-themed en suite bathroom and a generous walk-in wardrobe, offering both style and convenience. The family bathroom on this floor is equally captivating, adorned with porcelain tiles and complemented by underfloor heating for an added layer of comfort.

Bedroom four boasts a Juliette balcony overlooking the garden, while bedroom five features a large storage space built into the eaves.
