The property is approached via a sweeping in-and-out gravel driveway, enclosed by impressive double wrought-iron electric gates and bordered by stone cobble edging. The landscaped front garden is predominantly laid to lawn and enjoys lovely views across the surrounding open countryside.
A large timber-built storage shed/workshop is positioned to the front of the property, providing excellent storage and useful space that could serve as an alternative to a garage. A bespoke timber-framed open porch provides an attractive entrance to the property.
On entering the house, the accommodation immediately impresses with its combination of traditional character and contemporary family living.
The stunning fitted kitchen/dining area forms the heart of the home and features a range of quality Shaker-style wall and base units, granite work surfaces and a traditional Belfast-style ceramic sink with mixer tap. A focal point is the oil-fired Aga range cooker, complemented by a tiled splashback, while integrated appliances include a microwave, fridge, Neff dishwasher and wine cooler. Limestone flooring flows seamlessly through the kitchen and adjoining areas.
The kitchen opens into a generous dining area, providing ample space for a large dining table and additional seating. Full-height sliding double-glazed doors lead directly onto the patio, creating a wonderful connection between the house and garden and making this an ideal space for entertaining.
From the kitchen, the accommodation continues into a beautiful garden room/conservatory which is flooded with natural light and enjoys lovely views over the rear garden this room has the benefit of underfloor heating. The vaulted ceiling incorporates integrated skylights, while solid oak beams and a central brick-built Jøtul stove/open fire add warmth and character. Twin sets of patio doors open to either side, providing direct access to the garden. Limestone flooring with underfloor heating adds an extra touch of comfort in this room.
The main lounge provides a more traditional and relaxing reception space, centred around a rustic brick fireplace with a substantial oak mantel beam and integrated log burner set upon a stone hearth. Dual-aspect windows and two skylights create a particularly bright and welcoming room. A separate snug provides further flexible living space and features premium solid oak flooring.
Completing the ground floor is a generous utility and boot room, fitted with useful cabinetry, wood-effect work surfaces and an inset stainless-steel sink. There is space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, together with a large freestanding fridge/freezer. A half-glazed stable door opens directly onto the patio, making this a particularly practical space for family life and country walks. A stylish cloakroom completes the ground floor.

The principal bedroom is complemented by a beautifully appointed en-suite featuring a traditional Burlington suite, freestanding pedestal wash basin and matching WC, together with a walk-in wet-room-style shower, brick-style tiling, wood-effect tiled flooring, heated towel rail and large privacy window.
