Stonelea is an individual and extremely handsome house built 30 years ago in a Georgian rectory style with high ceilings and attractive cornicing and ceiling roses. The property exudes a sense of grandeur with its sweeping gravel driveway leading up from double gates. All rooms are well proportioned with large windows allowing for plenty of light to flood in. The ground floor accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall with double doors to the 27’ sitting room on one side and the snug on the other side. There is under stairs storage with light and a WC, both located either side of the stairs. The kitchen/dining/ family room really is the heart of the home and features under floor heating and French doors opening onto the patio. There are further doors into the snug and the side hall where you will find the utility room and side doors to the drive and rear of the property. Along the hall is further accommodation currently used as a ‘games room with WC, gym and office / bedroom above. This could very easily be re-designed as an annex with its own entrance if desired.
