This fantastic home is packed full of period features, charm and elegance and offers further potential to extend with planning in place for a fantastic Orangery to add to the spacious living accommodation already on offer. A stable door opens up into a spacious tiled hallway where muddy shoes and boots can be discarded after a muddy dog walk. A generous cloakroom/boot room is set to one side ready to store those coats and boots and is fitted with a downstairs WC suite. Across the hallway and an elegant living room with a fabulous Inglenook fireplace and log burner draw you into enjoy the relaxing space. This generous space is filled with light from all angles through the stone mullion windows creating a superb formal living space. There is also planning in place to extend out further to build an Orangery which would offer yet more space and a garden room feel for those summer days. An additional sitting room is also available across the rear hallway and with another fabulous Inglenook fireplace and log burner, this is perfect as a family room or snug. On the other wing of the house a dining hallway opens up further into a large country kitchen/breakfast room. Fitted with a wide range of units, a Range cooker and integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer, this space offers room for all the family to cook together. The character continues here with exposed stone fireplace surround beautifully integrated into the kitchen design.

From the dining hall is a hidden set of stairs which take you up to a characterful vaulted bedroom complete with exposed beams, stripped floorboards, stone mullion window and a tastefully created ensuite shower room. This is the perfect space for guests located away from the rest of the bedroom accommodation. From the rear hallway the main stairs sweep up to the first floor where 2 very generous bedrooms can be found. Firstly, the stunning master bedroom, with it's classic fireplace, a period style modern en suite bathroom with roll top bath and separate shower cubicle and a great sized dressing room. The perfect retreat after a busy day. The 2nd bedroom on this level is again full of period charm and also has it's own hidden WC for convenience. A further set of stairs brings you up to the characterful loft level, which is a whole suite in itself. An expansive loft room with exposed beams stretches out offering space for sleeping and studying. Two Velux windows keep the room light and tucked away areas offer space for storage. In addition across the landing is a private bathroom. Again fitted in a classic period style, with roll top bath, WC and basin, with further storage loft space. This is the perfect space for an older child who wants their own floor to themselves.

Before heading outside, take the stairs down into the cellar. This room has recently been re surfaced and the replacement sump pump keeps the space dry. Headroom is a little lower than usual, but this makes a perfect store room or wine cellar. A useful additional space and rare to find such a great area these days.

Outside and there is a large wrap around plot, which starts at the gated gravel driveway. There is plenty of parking areas here, including a wide car port suitable for 2-3 cars and a single garage which has been partially converted to a useful utility room, but could be re instated as a full garage if a treasured car needs a secure home. The garden lawn space starts to one side of the drive, wraps around the rear of the garage and car port before opening up again behind the house. A lovely lawned blank canvass ready for someone to exercise their green fingers by adding borders and feature plants to suit. A decking area is tucked away in one corner and alongside is a wooden bar/shed/summerhouse. A large concrete base has already been built for the Orangery if you choose to continue with the plans. Alternatively, you could finish it as a beautiful patio just outside of the French doors from the formal living room. This garden is mean for entertaining! A further more formal kitchen garden sits on the original front of the property, and could be reinstated with herbs and vegetables for the budding chef or could make a fantastic sunny Mediterranean style area. The choice is yours.
