The nearby village of Alstonefield has a thriving community with its own website , a village hall and many groups and classes offering a real village spirit.
Accommodation
Main entrance door opens into an open plan L-shaped farmhouse style kitchen with a range of base and wall mounted units with solid wooden work surfaces over and an oil-fired Aga, independent of the heating. There are spaces for a cooker and dryer, together with plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher. Flagstone floor runs throughout, and a wooden staircase leads off to the first floor.
Off the kitchen is a snug with a feature original stone fireplace housing a wood burning stove, flagstone floor and a second staircase leads to the first floor. Steps lead down to a stunning sitting room, again with feature stone fireplace housing a wood burning stove, dual aspect windows, beamed ceiling and a door to the rear.
Stairs from the kitchen lead up to a study landing area that gives access to the principal bedroom enjoying lovely views over the rear, bedroom four and a bathroom which has been fitted with a white three-piece suite.
Stairs from the snug lead up to a split-level landing giving access to a dual aspect guest bedroom, bedroom three and a bathroom with a four-piece suite including a corner bath, double width shower cubicle, painted wooden flooring and exposed wooden ceiling.
Outside
A driveway gives access to a double garage with power and lighting. The lovely landscaped rear garden has several tiers of lawns retained by dry stone walls, display borders and beds packed with a variety of herbaceous perennials and shrubs plus a garden pond. A raised decked area provides a lovely outdoor sitting area and there is gated access to a vegetable plot that also has a shed. At the top of the garden the seller has recently purchased an additional parcel of land which encloses the property beautifully and has the best far reaching views over the surrounding countryside. Attached to the side of the property is an outbuilding that houses the Worcester Greenstyle boiler.
