4 bedroom detached house

THE AGENT SAYS...
Finials is a deceptively spacious home that offers a generous amount of living accommodation, with a good balance of sociable spaces and separate rooms. The house is filled with light, bursting with characterful features, and wonderfully welcoming. The ground floor has a lovely sense of flow with the features of each room drawing you through the property. The unique kitchen is stunning, with everything in its place, plenty of room to cook, and a table to sit and enjoy informal meals. Doors to the decked garden extend the room outdoors in the warmer months.

THE PROPERTY
The main entrance to the property is at the front, protected by an enclosed stone porch which opens directly into the hall (the other front door and porch have been retained but are not in use). To the left is the double aspect study which is a good size for hobbies/working from home. To the right is the snug, which has the look of an original cottage parlour with a practical tiled floor and a chair drawn up close to the fire. This room could work really well as a mudroom, with its built-in storage and a window seat to perch and put your boots on - great for dog owners.

The snug leads through to the main living spaces which are interconnected and have a more open-plan feel. The living room has a heavily beamed ceiling, in a lovely warm tone, with a handsome stone fireplace and wood-burning stove. This charming room is very inviting with light streaming in from two windows (both with window seats) and an attractive built-in tv unit and shelves in the alcove alongside the fireplace. The dining room is perfectly situated between the living room and kitchen, with fitted storage and room for a good-size table . Off the dining room is a rear hallway, with a utility room and separate WC, which leads out to the rear of the house.

The gorgeous kitchen is the standout feature of this property and blends beautifully with the rest of the living spaces. With windows on two sides, large doors with sidelights at the end, and a skylight above, this lovely room is filled with light at all times of day. The kitchen is fitted with a range of oak units which tie in with and highlight the exposed timbers in the ceiling. Painted exposed stone, wooden worktops and accessories, and a Belfast style sink amp up the delightful rustic and homely feel. This is pleasingly offset by stainless steel appliances, glass splashbacks, and metal pendant lights which add a hint of industrial style. There is a built-under oven, large gas hob, extractor, space for an American style fridge freezer ,and space/plumbing for a freestanding dishwasher.

On the first floor there are four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a good-size, almost square in shape, and benefits from windows on two sides. Bedrooms 2- 4 all have fitted storage and Bedroom 3 has the added benefit of an ensuite shower room. The family bathroom is light and generously proportioned with a WC, wash basin, and bath with shower over.

OUTSIDE
The cottage is tucked away enjoying a really peaceful & private setting on the edge of the village...if you enjoy hearing the birds sing, this is the house! There are small areas of garden at either end of the property, joined by a pathway along the front of the house. The main outdoor space consists of a low maintenance deck alongside the kitchen. Adjoining this is a gravel parking area with a timber carport above.
