Village house with far-reaching countryside views.

Description

Hawthorn House has been the subject of a programme of refurbishment, culminating in a beautifully presented family home which includes a stunning kitchen with island seating and bifold doors opening onto the terrace and overlooking the gardens. Separated by a central fireplace, the living room is situated at the front of the property, finished with a wood-style floor. At the rear of the house is a large utility/boot room, walk-in pantry and cloakroom.

On the opposite side of the house is a cosy sitting room overlooking the front gardens.

On the first floor the property has five bedrooms, the principal bedroom suite with en suite shower room and dressing room. A family bathroom has an air bath, shower, wash basin and WC. The loft area has a substantially high pitch which may provide for further bedroom accommodation subject to obtaining the necessary permissions.

Immediately behind the house is a paved terrace, ideal for al fresco dining.
