A sliding door front porch provides a sheltered and welcoming entrance, leading into the main hallway. The accommodation is bright and versatile throughout. The Sitting Room is a particularly inviting space, featuring an open fireplace, fitted wall lights and ceiling light, along with a solid wood built-in display and storage unit that adds both character and practicality. A separate west facing Lounge/Family Room also enjoys an open fireplace, another solid wood fine built-in display and storage unit offering a restful and flexible second reception area. The notably large west facing kitchen/dining room is ideal for everyday living and entertaining and benefits from three windows with different aspects, allowing an abundance of natural light to flow through the space throughout the day. From the kitchen, a back porch provides extra storage and direct access to the rear garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. There are three well-proportioned bedrooms, all complete with built-in wardrobes, together with a modern wet room style bathroom. Oil-fired central heating serves the entire home. Externally, the property continues to impress. There is off street parking for two cars and an integrated long garage which offers excellent storage and clear potential for conversion to additional living accommodation, subject to planning permission. The site also includes a detached outbuilding for extra storage, a charming glasshouse, outdoor tap and a brick-built shed providing additional storage space in the rear garden. The gardens are a standout feature of this home. While largely designed for ease of upkeep, the property contains a portion of lawn located to the front and side of the house. Mature trees, established shrubbery, and well maintained flower beds surround the property, creating a private and attractive setting. The west facing rear garden enjoys both afternoon and evening sun and features decorative stone and a paved patio area, perfect for outdoor dining or relaxation. The gardens wrap around the corner site beautifully, offering a wonderful sense of space, privacy, and tranquillity.
