4 bedroom detached house for sale

Approached via a long gravel driveway, the property opens into a welcoming reception hall where exposed timbers and generous ceiling heights immediately set the tone for this elegant family home. The kitchen is beautifully appointed and opens into a light-filled family room with doors leading to the garden. A well-proportioned dining room features a magnificent inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove, while the comfortable sitting room flows through to a study. The ground floor also offers a flexible bedroom with an adjoining shower room—perfect for guests or multi-generational living.

The first floor is accessed via two staircases. The principal bedroom suite includes a dressing area and luxurious en suite bathroom, with two further bedrooms, a dressing room, and a stylish family bathroom completing this level.

A detached studio provides a wonderfully bright and versatile space, ideal as a home office, gym, or art studio. With services already in place, it could easily be converted into a fully self-contained annexe, complete with its own private garden.
