The hallway widens as we step through and a door below the stairs leads down to the full height cellar. All of the main reception rooms are bathed in sunlight, positioned on the southern side of the house and enjoy the stunning views of the garden from full height sash windows. The first of these being the drawing room which is further enhanced by a large bay window looking onto the driveway. An open fireplace offers a cosy focal point to this spacious room. Adjacent we find the sitting room which has served our vendors as the perfect evening room being of more modest proportions, a wood burning stove warms this space. Stepping along the hall we pass the original front door and enter the utility areas which comprise a utility room, walk in larder and generous cloakroom whilst back on the southern side of the house we enter the dining room which flows open plan into the kitchen.

On the Eastern side a five bar gate opens between hedged boundary and leads onto a most attractive shingle driveway which is framed with a vibrant range of flower beds, planted banks and box hedged walkways that lead around the house. The drive commands a view over the lawns whilst leading us to the front door where an ornate storm porch welcomes us into the home. On the Western side we find twin electric doors opening from the road to the double garage and a right of way leads us to an additional parking area that approaches the rear entrance. The right of way continues to the side of the grounds allowing meadow access at the foot of the garden. Attached to the garage at the rear of the house a range of garden outbuildings offer superb storage and working space.
