The generous layout allows for ample seating and media units, and a glazed bifold door connects back to the central sitting area.

At the heart of the ground floor a versatile sitting room links the main living spaces. A feature wood-burning stove with chunky timber mantel and integrated log store creates a cosy focal point. Open-tread stairs rise to the first floor, discreet lighting provides a warm glow and wide sliding doors open to the pergola and lawn.

The dining room
The separate dining room offers an inviting setting for formal or family meals. It features an attractive stone fireplace with hearth and a broad front window that fills the room with garden views. The room can accommodate a generous table and chairs and is conveniently located off the sitting room.

The utility and garage space
An integral double garage adjoins the home, providing secure parking and valuable storage. The garage is unusually deep, offering workshop and gym space and housing an installed Pod Point 7kW electric vehicle charger. Behind the garage a dedicated utility room is fitted with extensive cabinets, worktop and sink, and there is space for laundry appliances and a freezer.

The entrance hall and cloakroom
A glazed front door opens into a welcoming hall with decorative patterned floor tiles. The adjacent cloakroom is fitted with a stylish vanity topped with a vessel basin, panelled wainscot and a modern WC. From the hall doors lead to the reception rooms and stairs rise to the first-floor landing.

The principal en suite
The en suite shower room serves the principal bedroom. It offers a glass-enclosed shower with both rainfall and handheld fittings, alongside a sleek pedestal basin and WC. A heated towel rail completes the space.

The third bedroom is another well-proportioned double with a peaceful rear aspect and a built-in wardrobe. Its generous floor area offers versatility as a guest room or further family bedroom. A broad window draws the eye across the landscaped gardens.

The fourth bedroom
Currently arranged as a study, the fourth bedroom serves equally well as a single bedroom. It includes a built-in storage cupboard and enjoys open views through a large window. Neutral décor makes this a calm and adaptable space.

The shower room
The family shower room is finished in a contemporary style. A generous walk-in enclosure with rainfall shower sits alongside a vessel basin on a timber vanity and a modern WC. White subway tiling and natural-toned flooring add a fresh, calming feel to the space.

The garden
The formal garden extends to about 0.65 of an acre and wraps around the home, screened by deep evergreen hedging. Sweeping lawns are interspersed with mature specimen trees and flowering borders, creating an idyllic setting for family life. A pergola runs along the rear elevation, supporting climbers and providing a sheltered walkway from the home.

At the heart of the garden stands a handsome timber gazebo set on a decked platform, ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining. Nearby a wildlife pond with lilies and flag iris is edged by stone paving, while herbaceous beds host a riot of colour. A circular flower bed and seating beneath a mature tree provide perfect spots to sit and admire the view.

The driveway and parking
Approached through a timber-slatted gate, a sweeping drive leads to the front of the home. The drive provides parking for multiple vehicles and culminates at the double garage and a covered entrance porch. Mature hedging, neat borders and lawned areas flank the driveway, offering privacy and an attractive approach.

The land by separate negotiation
Beyond the garden the property includes a substantial paddock available by separate negotiation. The field extends to approximately 2.6 acres and is enclosed by mature hedgerows and fencing. This level expanse offers scope for keeping livestock, creating an orchard or pursuing equestrian interests, subject to any necessary consents.

Agent Note
An overage condition may apply to the land and lower garden in the case of any future planning permission(s) for additional residential dwelling(s).

Fees

The fee will be retained by Andrew Grant in the event that you the Buyer withdraws from the purchase or does not Exchange within 6 months of the fee being received other than for one or more of the following reasons:

1. Any significant material issues which individually are more than 1% of the agreed purchase price and are highlighted in a survey and were not evident or drawn to the attention of you, the Buyer, prior to the Memorandum of Sale being issued.
2. Serious and material defect in the seller’s legal title.

4. The vendor withdrawing the property from sale.

The reservation fee will be 0.5% of the accepted offer price for offers below £800,000 and 1% for offers of £800,000 or over. This fee, unless specified otherwise, is payable upon acceptance by the vendor of an offer from a buyer and completion of an assessment of the buyer’s financial status and ability to proceed.

For example, where the buyer declares themselves as a cash buyer but are in fact relying on an unsecured sale of their property. The reservation fee will not be refunded where there is an inability on the part of the Buyer to raise any required mortgage after the Memorandum of Sale is completed.

Once the reservation fee has been paid, any renegotiation of the price stated in the memorandum of sale for any reason other than those covered in points 1 to 3 above will lead to the reservation fee being retained. A further fee will be levied on any subsequent reduced offer that is accepted by the vendor. This further fee will be subject to the same conditions that prevail for all reservation fees outlined above.

The Compliance and Verification Fee becomes due immediately upon acceptance of the offer and receipt of the reservation fee and shall become non-refundable once any compliance or verification work has commenced, irrespective of whether the transaction subsequently proceeds to Exchange of Contracts or completion.

Where all or part of the reservation fee is refundable under the reservation fee terms, any Compliance and Verification Fees incurred shall first be deducted from the monies returned.
