Description

A beautifully presented five-bedroom Grade II listed period residence, brimming with character and timeless charm. This distinguished home offers an exceptional blend of elegant original features and thoughtfully integrated modern comforts, creating a truly inviting and versatile living space arranged over three floors.

Upon entering, the property immediately impresses with its generous and well-balanced accommodation. At its heart is an expansive sitting and dining room, centred around a charming log burner that provides a warm focal point, perfectly suited to both relaxed family living and stylish entertaining. A separate reception room offers excellent flexibility, ideal for use as a snug, study, playroom, or additional sitting room, while a convenient ground-floor WC enhances everyday practicality.

The impressive kitchen/diner is a standout feature, showcasing exposed wooden beams and a striking glass feature well that combine period character with contemporary design. This welcoming space is perfectly suited to modern family life, offering ample room for dining and entertaining. A spacious utility room completes the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor comprises three well-proportioned bedrooms, including stylish en-suite facilities, together with a beautifully appointed family bathroom. The top floor provides two further generous double bedrooms, offering excellent additional accommodation for family members or guests.

Externally, the property is further enhanced by its exceptional rear garden, a true highlight that offers both space and tranquillity in equal measure. Extending generously from the house, the garden is predominantly laid to lawn, creating a wonderful sense of openness and providing ample space for family activities, entertaining, or simply relaxing in peaceful surroundings. A paved terrace adjoining the rear of the property provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining, enjoying attractive views back towards the house and across the grounds.

Mature planting and established trees frame the garden beautifully, providing privacy, colour, and seasonal interest throughout the year. A striking flowering tree creates a wonderful focal point during the spring months, while the surrounding greenery forms a natural and calming backdrop. To one side, a charming outbuilding offers excellent potential as a workshop, studio, or additional storage space.

Beyond the main lawned area, the garden enjoys a particularly special feature, backing onto a gently flowing stream. This idyllic setting enhances the sense of seclusion and creates an almost countryside atmosphere, ideal for those seeking a closer connection with nature. The outdoor space provides a rare combination of scale, privacy, and character, making it a wonderful extension of the home's living environment.

Further benefits include a private driveway providing convenient off-road parking and access to a substantial double garage. Above the garage is a bright and versatile first-floor room, ideal as a home office, studio, hobby room, or occasional guest accommodation. Featuring a characterful sloped ceiling, natural light from a window, built-in eaves storage, and the added convenience of a private WC with wash basin, this self-contained space offers excellent flexibility for a variety of lifestyle needs.

This exceptional home effortlessly combines period elegance, generous accommodation, and modern comfort, creating a rare and highly desirable opportunity.
