The reception room is zoned to offer a relaxed sitting area beside the gas fire and a dining space, with the double height glazed aperture filling the room with light and French doors providing a connection to the garden. The convivial heart of the home is offered by a charming kitchen/dining room which has a subtle division linking to a relaxed family room, where a wall of glass and doors affords a seamless transition to the terrace. Fitted with sleek timber cabinetry, topped with stone work surfaces, the kitchen is supported by a separate utility room.

Evergreen hedging forms a boundary to the side of the plot, with a timber five-bar gate marking the entry point onto an expanse of gravelled courtyard with a centre-point planted feature. The double garage sits at the edge of the courtyard, alongside the stable block, whilst a further gate offers access into the adjoining paddock. The garden around the property has been beautifully landscaped to provide sinuous planted beds; geometric raised planters; paved, gravelled and decked terraces to enjoy the various aspects and, with post-and-rail fencing, there is an open outlook over the fields. An enclosed pond with waterfall feature and pretty aquatic planting offers a magnet to birds and insects, with a majestic willow tree creating dappled shade alongside.
