Description
Originally dating back to the 17th century, Half Moon House started life as a public house and has since undergone an extensive programme of extension and refurbishment, now offering an impressively spacious layout with flexible living space.
Abundant with period features including exposed wooden beams and original fireplaces, this property is not short of charm. The two main reception rooms sit to the front of the property, the main sitting room being of a particularly notable size with log burning stove and two large windows. The adjacent lounge has a door way opening directly to the kitchen, currently used as a playroom, it would work equally as well as a dining room or study.
The heart of the home is the impressive kitchen-dining room, a later extension, this bright room has an apex roof light and bi-folding doors opening to the garden. The farmhouse style features wooden units providing ample storage space, built-in appliances including an electric range oven and a central island unit.
Continuing through the ground floor there is a sizeable separate utility room, WC and plant room; which provides access to the cellar.
The property is fitted with wooden Yorkshire sliding sash windows to the front and double glazed windows to the rear.

To the rear of the property is a particularly private walled garden with a central lawn, terraced seating area, raised vegetable beds and a well-stocked flower bed. Double gates give vehicular access to the double garage.
