The Property
The front door opens into the entrance hall which is heavily timbered with stairs rising to the first floor and original coffin hatch. Doors lead off from the hall to the principal reception rooms with the sitting/music room to the right hand side. This triple aspect room is full of character with wall and ceiling timbers and attractive brick fireplace housing a multi-fuel stove and offers lovely views over the gardens with a door leading out to the side. The double aspect dining room again is full of character with a fire-place housing a wood burning stove and plenty of entertaining space. Walking into the contemporary style kitchen, which has been re-fitted by the current owner, is a complete contrast with its sleek modern range of units with integrated appliances, granite work surfaces and central island. The modern 'range style' cooker is included in the sale. The kitchen leads off to the breakfast room which has lovely views over the garden and this in turn leads into the utility with a range of base units with granite work tops which match the kitchen and again with integrated appliances. Walking back into the breakfast room a door takes you into the garden room again with beautiful views over the garden. This part of the house would make an ideal annexe with the bedroom with en-suite and a further room which could be another bedroom or study.

Stairs rise from the entrance hall to the first floor landing with doors to all bedrooms and the shower room. At one end you will find the master bedroom complete with en-suite WC, painted wooden floorboards and stunning far reaching countryside views to the front and rear. There are two further double bedrooms, both again with rural views and the re-fitted shower room comprising a fully tiled shower cubicle, WC and wash basin.
