About this property

A beautifully-presented, ironstone village home that has been lovingly renovated and upgraded by the current owners to create a wonderful and characterful property.

GROUND FLOOR
Enter the property into a large and light entrance hall giving access to the ground floor accommodation and with stairs rising to the first floor. To the left of the entrance hall is the generously sized sitting room with a window to the front, a glazed door leading out to the garden. The focal point of this room is the wonderful iron-stone fireplace housing a wood burning stove. To the right is the formal dining room, also with generous proportions to easily accommodate a table for 8-10 people and a feature fireplace housing a wood burning stove.

To the rear of the property, you will find the fantastic family kitchen that has a central island and breakfast bar. The kitchen itself has a comprehensive range of floor-standing and a wall mounted units under timber work tops. There is a ceramic sink, integrated dishwasher, space for a both a free-standing American style fridge freezer and a Range style cooker with extractor over. There is easy access from the kitchen to the garden through the part glazed stable door and two windows allowing plenty of light.

Beyond the kitchen is a boot room that then leads off this into the utility room/downstairs WC. There is a low flush lavatory, pedestal wash hand basin and space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

FIRST FLOOR
To the first floor there are four bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms. The principal bedroom sits to the rear of the property overlooking the garden. The current owners are using bedroom four which is the smallest bedroom in the property as a dedicated dressing room that has a fantastic range of bespoke built-in wardrobes.

However, if the next owner requires an extra bedroom this room could easily be returned.

The first floor continues with a further two double bedrooms one sitting to the front with built-in wardrobes and the other enjoying views to both the front and rear.

The family bathroom that sits to the middle of the property and is bathed in light through the south-facing window that overlooks the garden. It has been beautifully finished featuring a free-standing roll top bath, a pedestal wash hand basin, a low flush lavatory, a separate shower enclosure and a heated towel rail. The first-floor accommodation is completed by a separate shower room with a large corner shower enclosure, pedestal wash hand basin and a low flush lavatory.

A staircase from the first-floor landing leads to a second floor that provides a wonderful bedroom in the eaves with a south-facing window taking in views over the village and countryside beyond. A study completes the internal accommodation and provides the ideal space to work from home.

OUTSIDE
The property has a superb garden that enjoys a southerly aspect with an easy flow from the living areas to the outdoor space. A large patio sits directly off the living room and kitchen that then gives way to a spacious lawn. The property enjoys a great degree of privacy and security as the garden is walled and fenced on all sides and there is a five-bar gate which gives access to the block-paved driveway and garage. The property has two outbuildings that are connected to the south wing of the property which provide useful storage. The current owners have done a superb renovation of this historic property but have managed to retain much of its charm and character. The new windows throughout the property and the way they present the home are prime examples of this.

This wonderful village home is offered to the market with the agent's strongest recommendation for an internal inspection.
