The front door opens into a lovely hallway with a blue Lias stone floor. To one side of the hallway is a charming living room, warmed by a wood-burning stove nestled in a deep brick inglenook at the gable end. The room retains its original features, including a bressummer beam running along its length and a substantial wooden lintel above the inglenook. The attractive wooden floorboards add to the room’s character, and beneath the window, a romantic window seat creates a perfect spot to relax.
The dining room is at the heart of the house, with original stone floors and an inglenook with open fireplace. A door from the dining room leads to a study, a calm and quiet space with pretty garden views and, once again, a window seat.
The kitchen has off-white cabinetry juxtaposed with dark granite worktops and a large butler sink. A black Rangemaster cooker sits at one end of the kitchen, accompanied by a Rangemaster fridge and an integrated freezer and dishwasher. Smart fitted plate racks, a combination of cupboards and open shelving, and terracotta tiled floors complete the space. Tongue and groove panelling has been applied to the walls. The kitchen window frames lovely garden views, and a gap in the farmer’s hedge provides a picturesque glimpse of the neighbouring field. Opposite the kitchen is convenient utility space equipped with a second butler sink and ample room for a washing machine. An external door between the kitchen and utility room opens directly onto a patio area and the garden. There is also a cloakroom on this floor.
On the first floor there are four good sized bedrooms, the principal with ensuite shower room, and three doubles all of which share a well-appointed bathroom.
The property is approached onto a private gravel driveway where there is parking space for multiple cars, in addition to the spacious double garage.
The house is enveloped by a beautiful garden, which has a flourishing orchard, expanded by the current owners. The orchard now has crab apple trees, wild cherry trees, and an assortment of other fruit trees, adding to the natural beauty of the surroundings. Privacy is created by a beech hedge, while a majestic maple tree adds shade. Next to the house, a charming kitchen garden is enclosed by estate fencing, lined with a row of pleached russet apple trees and complete with a greenhouse.
In all approximately 0.57 of an acre.
