Description

A delightful family home set back from the road and with wonderful countryside surroundings. It is believed the house was originally built in about the 1800’s with later extensions. The property offers spacious and characterful accommodation, ideal for growing families.

The reception hall gives access to a cellar and a guest cloakroom, with beautiful oak flooring extending to most of the rooms on both floors. A sunny triple aspect TV room is located just off the hall with French doors on to the garden. The kitchen/breakfast room works well for family life with a vaulted breakfast area and two sets of French doors leading out to a charming courtyard. The kitchen itself is well appointed with a range of units complemented by granite and wood worktops and incorporating breakfast bar seating. Appliances include an electric Aga, induction hob, oven, microwave and a dishwasher. From the kitchen steps lead up to a delightful family room, the oldest part of the house, which wraps around into a study area, with a fireplace and exposed beams. The spacious sitting room is an impressive family space, overlooking the garden and with French doors giving access. Off this room is a bedroom with an ensuite shower room. Additionally on this floor is a utility room and a side porch just off the kitchen.

On the first floor the bedrooms are all of a generous size with many enjoying spectacular views over the countryside. A lovely large landing space is currently used as a gym, with doors on to a balcony. Just off this space is the vaulted principal bedroom, with a double aspect, en-suite shower room and French doors leading out on to a spacious balcony. There are five further double bedrooms, all characterful and of a good size. Two of the bedrooms have en suite shower rooms while the remaining three are served by a family bathroom.

Outside
The property sits tucked back from the road with a driveway giving ample parking. To the front and side are large expanses of lawn with beautiful rural views. A large terrace area adjoins the house to the side and is the perfect space for outside entertaining while a charming courtyard lies just off the kitchen giving an ideal spot for al fresco dining.
