A charming Grade II listed, detached property with an immense amount of character. The entrance hall with cloakroom off leads through to the kitchen / breakfast room.

The kitchen has wood flooring and painted wooden drawer units with built in Neff oven, dishwasher and induction hob, solid surface resin work-surface and a large central island/breakfast bar.

The sitting room has a wood burner and enjoys patio doors opening on to the garden. There is also a study / play room.

On the first floor the principal bedroom has a range of fitted wardrobes and overlooks the garden as does the guest bedroom (which used to include a shower room so is ample sized to do so again if needed). There are two further bedrooms and a family bathroom with walk in shower and bath.

The property is approached through an oak gate to the gravel driveway, providing off street parking for several vehicles and giving access to the garage with power and light. The rear garden is of a westerly aspect and is mainly laid to lawn with well stocked flower borders and a large paved patio area.

There are a number of mature trees and shrubs and features two superb Copper Beeches. There is also an enclosed vegetable garden with shed, a thatched wooden gazebo (with electricity) and a pedestrian gate leading out to the village park and cricket field.
