From the moment you arrive, the surrounding countryside is immediately apparent. The elevated views and mature greenery give the property a sense of openness rarely found within a residential setting.

Spaces To Gather

The principal reception room is arranged as one generous open-plan living space, naturally divided into two distinct seating areas.

At the front, a characterful open fireplace forms a warm and inviting focal point, creating an atmospheric space for quieter evenings and winter gatherings.

Beyond, the room opens into a second relaxed seating area, where newly installed patio doors draw the eye towards the garden and allow natural light to move through the accommodation. During the warmer months, the doors can be opened to create an effortless connection between the house and the outside space.

Although open plan, each section retains its own identity, providing flexibility for family life, entertaining or creating separate formal and informal living areas.

The Kitchen And Dining Space

The kitchen is arranged in an open-plan format and offers a practical space for everyday cooking, with the potential to be further personalised over time.

Adjoining the kitchen is a separate dining area, creating a defined setting for family meals and entertaining. A traditional chimney breast provides an attractive focal point and presents the opportunity to install a wood-burning stove, subject to the necessary approvals.

This area has the potential to become a particularly warm and characterful part of the home, combining the practicality of an everyday dining space with the atmosphere of a country interior.

A ground-floor cloakroom completes the principal accommodation on this level.

Four Well-Proportioned Bedrooms

The first floor provides four well-proportioned bedrooms, offering flexibility for family, guests, home working or creative space.

The bedrooms benefit from the property’s peaceful position, with views towards the surrounding countryside and gardens creating a calm and private outlook.

The principal bedroom offers generous proportions, while the remaining rooms provide adaptable accommodation suitable for children, visitors or a dedicated study.

The Family Bathroom

The spacious family bathroom is fitted with a large corner bath and a separate walk-in shower, providing both practicality and comfort.

Its generous proportions create a relaxing room with the potential to be styled as a private, spa-inspired retreat.

A Garden With A Natural Rhythm

The rear garden is one of the property’s defining features.

Extending a considerable distance behind the house, it has been allowed to develop with a natural and informal character, creating a private space filled with mature planting, wild grasses and established greenery.

The garden backs directly onto private allotments, reinforcing the sense of openness and offering a peaceful backdrop throughout the seasons. There is ample space for outdoor seating, gardening, play areas or the creation of more formal landscaped sections, while retaining the garden’s existing charm.

Patio doors provide direct access from the rear reception area, allowing the garden to become a natural extension of the living accommodation.
