About this property

Accommodation
Be prepared for breath-taking charm and character as you step past the cobbles and into the front door. A spacious yet cosy sitting room offers a feast for your eyes with exposed beams and brickwork. Bespoke bookcases and cupboards flank an exposed brick fireplace which provides an ideal focal point, while to the corner an oak staircase sweeps upstairs.

An open arch leads through to a show-stopping open plan living dining kitchen spanning 21ft by 19ft. Fitted with contemporary solid wood units and a central island providing ample storage and work surface space. An oak framed extension adds plenty of natural light to the room while affording attractive views of the walled garden beyond. Integrated appliances include Bosch double oven and electric hob, Bosch larder fridge and a NEFF dishwasher. To the corner is a handy guest cloakroom with contemporary suite, and a handy storage/boiler room to the opposite corner.

A glass atrium with feature exposed brick wall links the kitchen to the utility/boot room where you will find further storage to the contemporary wall and base units, plumbing and space for a washing machine, space for a dryer and American-style fridge freezer. Beyond here is a ground floor bedroom with its own ensuite shower room. A versatile space which could also serve as a study/home office or garden room.

Heading upstairs you will find two double bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and character features. The front bedroom features an ensuite shower room while the rear bedroom features an ensuite bathroom and also enjoys views over the roof-tops across the local countryside.

Outside
The cobblestones to the front have recently been restored to their former glory, while the rear garden has been lovingly landscaped to provide a private space for the whole family to enjoy.
