Set in a peaceful part of the village and enjoying a central position within its plot, No. 61 is a charming and well-maintained detached home offering flexible living and a welcoming atmosphere throughout.
Entered via a side porch, the home opens into a generous kitchen/breakfast room—an ideal everyday hub with a practical layout and good flow. From here, a central hallway connects nearly all principal rooms. The sitting room, with its open fireplace, is a cosy retreat for winter evenings and could easily be opened into the kitchen to create a flowing, open-plan space if desired.
There are two additional reception rooms: a formal dining room with generous proportions—also well-suited as a games room or occasional bedroom—and a wonderfully light snug at the rear of the house. West-facing, with views over the garden and fields beyond, it’s a perfect spot for reading, relaxing or curling up by the log burner at the end of the day.
Two double bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the ground floor, while the principal bedroom occupies the first floor. This peaceful retreat benefits from an en-suite bathroom and charming countryside views framed by a delightful porthole window.
Outside, the property offers gated off-street parking, a garage, and a well-tended rear garden with mature borders, a lawn, and a summer house enjoying the full benefit of the south facing aspect.
Lovingly cared for by the same owners for nearly 30 years, No. 61 is a much-loved home ready for its next chapter.
