The double-length integral garage to the side side promises additional parking, storage and useful workspace.

The living room, features a wood-burning stove set against a granite hearth, with a south-facing window illuminating the space from the front and internal French doors add a fluid connection to the show-stopping kitchen/diner. Whether your looking for a cosy end of day retreat or looking to incorporate your gatherings seamlessly between the kitchen / diner and the living room, the design of this home has you covered.

The kitchen is quite special - equipped with matt Navy soft-closing shaker units set beneath granite worktops with extended breakfast bar, accompanied by integral Bosch appliances. For instant hot water, a Quooker tap is at your service and a water-softener is present. Whether it's meal prep or dining, this space is luminous, with natural light flooding in from the French doors that lead out to the patio and garden and from a window that sits behind the sink, overlooking the rear garden.

Just off the kitchen, the utility room provides a continuation of the storage and style found in the kitchen, plus plumbing for your laundry needs. This room leads to the rear garden and also provides internal personal access to the double-length garage.

An exceptional new garden room at the rear of the home completes the ground floor accommodation.

The First Floor:

A journey upstairs reveals an impressively spacious galleried landing, setting the tone for the bedroom quarters. The first bedroom is a lavish retreat featuring a dormer window, luxury carpeting, and a luxe ensuite open shower with both standard and rainfall showerheads. The second and third bedrooms offer vistas of the verdant surroundings—paddocks from the second and Village Hall playing fields from the third. The fourth room is a versatile space, perfect as a study or dressing room, offering built-in wardrobes and another elevated view of paddock land to the rear.

The family bathroom doesn't skimp on luxury, either, featuring a four-piece suite with tasteful decorative light grey tiling.

Outdoor Spaces:

Beyond the home lies a garden that is a sanctuary of its own, meticulously landscaped by the current owners with a paved patio beneath a large glass pergola. Via picket fencing this leads onto a well-manicured lawn framed by flower borders and backed by paddock land. If that wasn't enough, there's also a large workshop with utilities and a bar to complete your outdoor retreat.
