Rooms

Entrance Lobby
Fronaeron is approached via two access points. A practical side entrance leads directly into the utility room, providing convenient day-to-day access and access to the ground floor bathroom. The principal entrance features a double-glazed, part-glazed security door which opens into a spacious and welcoming reception hall.

Reception Hall 6.50m x 1.57m (21ft 3in x 5ft 1in)
This attractive space immediately conveys a sense of light and height, enhanced by a vaulted ceiling and natural light from a sash-style window to the front elevation. The hall is finished with tiled flooring, offers cloak hanging space, and is fitted with a radiator for comfort. From here, doors lead through to the sitting room and kitchen, while the staircase rises to the first-floor accommodation — creating a natural and practical flow throughout the home.

Sitting Room 6.10m x 4.20m (20ft x 13ft 9in)
The sitting room enjoys a delightful rear aspect with wonderful views across the gardens and surrounding countryside. A matching Piazzetta Italian wood-burning stove forms a striking focal point, set beneath an original beam ceiling.

Lounge/Dining Room 4.20m x 4m (13ft 9in x 13ft 1in)
Steps rise to a versatile reception room currently utilised as a bedroom. With two sash-style UPVC windows overlooking the gardens and land beyond, this adaptable space is ideal as a formal dining room, additional sitting room or ground floor bedroom.

Study 4.40m x 2.50m (14ft 5in x 8ft 2in)
Forming part of the original cottage section, this charming room features A-frame roof detailing, a large picture window, Velux roof light and access to eaves storage. Equally suited as a study, creative space or guest bedroom.

Kitchen 5.10m x 5m (16ft 8in x 16ft 4in)
Undoubtedly one of the principal feature rooms of the property, the kitchen/dining room combines architectural drama with quality specification. Fitted with a comprehensive range of solid timber eye and base level units, integrated appliances include a Miele induction hob with extractor hood, AEG double oven, built-in fridge and AEG dishwasher. A double bowl sink sits beneath a sash-style window to the front. The vaulted ceiling with exposed A-frame beams and Velux roof windows floods the space with natural light. A beautifully designed Piazzetta Italian wood-burning stove with warming oven compartment creates a striking focal point and enhances the room’s warmth and character. Picture windows overlook the rear gardens, and a glazed door leads onto a side patio.

Conservatory 2.80m x 2.20m (9ft 2in x 7ft 2in)
A wooden conservatory provides a peaceful vantage point with glazing to multiple aspects, enjoying superb views across the gardens. With direct access onto the garden, it offers a tranquil space for relaxation throughout the seasons. An internal doorway leads through to Bedroom Four / Study.

The well-appointed utility room offers extensive storage, stainless steel sink unit, plumbing for washing machine, space for tumble dryer, larder cupboards housing fridge and freezer, and pantry storage. A plant room houses the hot water cylinder, heating controls and consumer unit.

A comfortable third bedroom, equally suited as a guest bedroom, nursery or home office.

Garden
Fronaeron stands within approximately five acres of beautifully maintained and thoughtfully developed grounds, offering a rare opportunity to enjoy privacy, productivity and panoramic countryside views in equal measure. The setting is exceptional. Sweeping lawns extend from the house, framed by mature trees and established hedging, creating a sheltered yet open environment with uninterrupted views across rolling fields and wooded valleys beyond. Over the years, the current owners have invested significantly in landscaping, resulting in a series of defined garden rooms, planted borders, specimen trees and cultivated areas. The grounds are both ornamental and productive — carefully arranged to provide year-round interest while maintaining a strong connection with the surrounding landscape. There are numerous seating areas positioned to capture the outlook, making the simple act of stopping and observing nature one of the great pleasures of this home.

Garden
Beyond the principal garden lies a substantial covered machinery store and barn-style outbuilding, ideal for housing plant equipment, tools and rural machinery. This practical space enhances the property’s smallholding credentials and supports the ongoing maintenance of the land. From here there is access to: A well-established polytunnel, a secure fruit cage and dedicated growing and cultivation areas. These facilities provide excellent potential for self-sufficiency, horticultural pursuits or small-scale agricultural use.

Parking - Driveway
Fronaeron benefits from extensive gravelled parking and turning areas, providing generous space for multiple vehicles and ease of manoeuvring.

Parking - Double garage
A substantial timber-built double garage sits within the grounds, offering excellent secure parking and storage. Constructed beneath a pitched roof, this attractive outbuilding blends well with its rural surroundings while providing highly practical space. To the right-hand side of the garage is a double-height opening with twin doors, specifically suited to accommodating a camper van, motorhome or recreational vehicle (subject to size). This is a particularly valuable feature for buyers seeking lifestyle flexibility, touring capability or additional workshop storage. In addition, there is a large covered machinery store/barn-style structure ideal for housing plant equipment, trailers and rural machinery, further reinforcing the property’s smallholding credentials. Together, these outbuildings provide an excellent balance of secure garaging, workshop space and storage — rarely found in properties of this nature.
