  • Living room
  • Kitchen/breakfast room
  • Dining/family room
  • Four bedrooms
  • Plot of 0.35 acres (STS)
  • Outstanding views

Set with countryside views, this beautifully presented home offers generous and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors, complemented by an impressive range of outbuildings. The property sits on a plot of approximately 0.35 acres (STS) and benefits from remote controlled gates, a substantial driveway and well maintained east-facing gardens with a raised decked area with sunken pool. There is lapsed planning for a side extension, porch and detached annexe.

The ground floor is arranged to suit both everyday living and entertaining, beginning with a welcoming entrance hall, accessed through impressive double-doors, that sets the tone with its clean lines and contemporary finish. From here, the living room provides a comfortable and well-proportioned space, positioned to enjoy a pleasant outlook and offering a calm retreat from the main living areas.
On the other side of the entrance hall the dining / family room works well for everyday living and social occasions alike. This space opens through to the kitchen/breakfast room via a wide opening, allowing easy interaction between the rooms while maintaining clearly defined areas. The layout lends itself particularly well to entertaining, with a natural flow between the kitchen, dining space and the garden beyond.
The kitchen/breakfast room is well arranged and benefits from direct access outside, further enhancing its practicality.
A cloakroom is conveniently positioned off the hallway, completing the ground floor accommodation.
The first floor offers well-balanced accommodation arranged around a central landing, creating a comfortable and practical layout for family living. There are four bedrooms in total, all of which are well proportioned and benefit from good natural light, making them suitable for a range of uses including guest accommodation or home working if required.
The bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom, complemented by an additional separate WC which adds further practicality and convenience. This level of the home offers a clear sense of separation from the living areas below, creating a calm and comfortable environment for everyday use.
The outside space is a particular feature of the property, with east-facing gardens enjoying open views across the surrounding farmland. The gardens are mainly positioned to the front and side and are laid out to provide both open lawned areas and defined spaces for relaxation and entertaining. A raised, decked area creates an attractive seating area and incorporates an overground pool, offering a private and enjoyable setting during the warmer months.
A range of useful outbuildings adds further versatility, including a large office or gym with its own WC, a utility and laundry room, a garage and a separate workshop. Electric gates open onto a substantial driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles and leading directly to the garage, creating a secure and practical arrival space that complements the scale of the property and grounds.
In addition, the property has previously benefited from planning permission for a single storey side extension, the addition of a new porch and the construction of a detached one-bedroom annexe. While this permission has now lapsed, it highlights the further potential available, subject to the necessary consents, and may be of interest to buyers looking to extend or adapt the property to suit future needs.
