Upon entering the property, you're welcomed by a charming entrance vestibule, the perfect spot for hanging coats and storing muddy boots after countryside walks. From here, the home opens into a delightfully bright and spacious double aspect sitting room, bathed in natural light and centred around a feature brick fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove—a truly inviting space for relaxing on cosy evenings.
The sitting room offers direct access to both the first-floor staircase and the kitchen/dining room, creating a natural flow throughout the ground floor. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed, fitted with a generous range of cream wall and base units topped with solid oak worktops, providing both style and ample storage. There is space for an electric range cooker, American-style fridge/freezer, and plumbing for a dishwasher or washing machine.
Leading off the kitchen is a light-filled conservatory, currently used as the dining area, which effortlessly extends the living space and opens out onto the enchanting walled cottage garden—ideal for alfresco dining and peaceful outdoor enjoyment.
Completing the ground floor is a well-appointed bathroom suite, featuring a panelled bath, pedestal sink, and a separate WC—a convenient addition for guests and family alike.
Upstairs, you’ll find two generously sized and well-presented bedrooms, with the principal bedroom featuring built-in pine wardrobes. The front bedroom enjoys far-reaching views over the surrounding countryside. A compact shower room serves both bedrooms, complete with a shower cubicle with electric shower, pedestal hand basin, and WC, offering comfort and convenience for everyday living. A further staircase leads to a boarded loft for storage.

At the far end of the garden, a quaint garden shed adds visual interest and provides useful storage for tools and gardening essentials.
