A perfect combination for rural living, combined with modern-day accessibility.

Palmers
* Palmers was originally a two-up/two-down period cottage which has subsequently been renovated and extended to the lovely light and spacious home it has become. * An entrance hall leads into the property with a useful downstairs WC leading off and the stairs up to the first floor. * The property has three reception rooms, a comfortable sitting room with double aspect and French doors leading out to a patio terrace. A “Truflame” electric contemporary-style fire provides a great feature to this room. * A very spacious and light, open-plan kitchen/dining/family room is the heart of this lovely home and benefits from ample storage and attractive, granite work surfaces. An integrated fridge, a freezer, a dishwasher and LPG range cooker and cooker hood further complement this super room which also has French doors out to the patio terrace and garden.

Palmers Ctd.
* A separate and useful utility room leads directly off the kitchen where there is additional cupboard storage and space for a washing machine and a door leading out to the garden. * There is a further cosy snug with a wood-burner and an additional reception room with original fireplace which provides a flexible space and could be used, as a study, children’s games/TV room, etc. * Stairs lead up to the first floor where there are four bedrooms and a family bathroom with a separate bath and large walk-in shower. * The main bedroom is a spacious double room with double aspect and en-suite shower room. There are two further double rooms and a single room. Two of the bedrooms retain the original fireplaces, which are lovely features and an insight into the property’s history.

The Outside
* Palmers is approached off a very quiet, rural lane via a private drive which leads to an ample gravelled parking area and to the front of the property. * There is a manageable, lawned front garden and an attractive raised flower bed flanking the driveway entrance. A large, lawned rear garden which really is a blank canvas, offers plenty of scope to create a wonderful outdoor space. Raised flower beds provide additional interest and would benefit from some further planting. * There is a very smart patio terrace which provides a great space for socialising with family and friends, and for seasonal dining.
