7 bedroom semi-detached house

Halford House is situated on Queen Street, a quiet street in the heart of the village. It has attractive views over its own garden and the village beyond and is within the conservation area.

One enters the property via the magnificent reception hall, with the principal reception rooms on either side. The dining room is impressive, having been known to seat up to 20 people for dinner parties. This delightful room has a feature fireplace housing a wood-burning stove. The drawing room has lovely high ceilings, and a large window lets light flood the room. The hub of this home is sure to be the kitchen, dining and family room, which has been created by the current vendors to provide the perfect space for entertaining. With solid oak parquet flooring throughout, the kitchen units are bespoke with dovetailed solid oak drawer linings, a fitted pantry, a wonderful dresser, cupboards with crockery drawers and soft close mechanisms and a large island with a marble worktop and breakfast bar. This stunning room has ample space for a sitting area and dining area. Double doors open out to a covered outdoor kitchen, allowing for entertaining all year round. There is also a utility and cloakroom on the ground floor. A useful cellar has a pump to ensure it is useable. The current vendors use the cellar as a wine store.

The upper floors have beautifully presented rooms full of charm and character. A dramatic principal bedroom suite has a balcony, dressing room and en suite bathroom with a beautiful rolltop bath and a separate shower. There are two further en suite bedrooms on this floor, both with fitted cupboards. On the second floor, there are four more bedrooms, a bathroom and a shower room.

To the rear of the garden is the Coach House. This has had several uses over the years, from a children's nursery to a shop and even a surgery. It now lends itself perfectly to being a home office/studio, but with the benefit of having a shower room in situ, it could also be an excellent home gym or therapy room.

A wide range of outbuildings are incredibly useful for storage and, subject to planning, could lend themselves to a variety of uses.

The garden is well-stocked with herbaceous borders and mature shrubbeds. Being mainly laid to lawn, it comes as no surprise that with the outdoor covered dining and cooking area, this garden works very well for a family, especially one that likes to entertain.
