This striking four-bedroom detached home occupies a large interior (approx. 2,615 sq ft) while keeping much of its period character from when it was the Old White Lion. Spacious reception rooms, exposed beams and fireplaces give the house warmth and personality, while modern updates—including an integrated kitchen with a Rangemaster, double glazing and an EPC C—make it comfortable for everyday family life.
Ground-floor living is versatile: two principal reception rooms, a formal dining room, cellar storage, and a practical utility with WC support family routines and entertaining. French doors from the main living room open onto a rear patio and lawn with a pergola—an easy-to-maintain outdoor space for children and gatherings. The converted garage provides useful additional accommodation with a dedicated first-floor gym space.
Upstairs, four bedrooms include a principal with en-suite and decorative period details throughout. The large family bathroom offers both bath and separate shower. The plot is a decent size but external amenity is moderate rather than extensive; the paved front setback gives kerb appeal but limited front garden space and modest rear depth compared with larger country plots.
Practical considerations are clear: the property is freehold, gas‑central heated with boiler and radiators, and sits in Council Tax Band E (above average). The house is well-presented but retains opportunities for further modernising to personal taste. Its town setting delivers excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and local amenities within easy reach, making it well suited to families seeking character combined with practical modern living.
