The property occupies a fine, non-estate position set back from the road and just a short walk from the village amenities and the mainline train station.

Just off the kitchen is a large utility/boot room with space for all the usual white goods, a wall-mounted gas-fired central heating boiler plus a door leading to a covered, side passageway leading to both the front and rear garden.

Upstairs off the galleried landing, are four good-sized bedrooms including the master bedroom with dressing area and a Jack and Jill four-piece bathroom. A separate shower room services the other bedrooms. On the second floor, there is another large bedroom, which in the past has been used as a home study.

Outside, there is a neat lawned front garden flanked by a block-paved in-and-out driveway, a double length garage with an up-and-over door, power and light connected and a door through into the snug/playroom. Gated access leads to the covered side passage, which in turn has a gateway to the rear garden. The rear garden with far-reaching views over farmland to the rear, is laid mainly to shaped and manicured lawns with sell-stocked flower and shrub boarders and beds. A large paved terrace is ideal for alfresco dining and summer evening entertaining. There is a selection of mature trees, bushes and shrubs and a generous timber shed.
