Exposed beams, a decorative fireplace and a cosy log burner create welcoming living spaces, while a separate dining room and breakfast kitchen provide flexible daily routines and entertaining options.
Bedrooms are comfortable and served by two bathrooms; an additional dressing room could serve as a fourth bedroom or home study. The south-facing garden is private and sunny, ideal for children, pets and alfresco dining, with a log cabin in the garden currently used as a heated home office or hobby room.
Practical benefits include a separate driveway with parking for multiple vehicles, freehold tenure, very low local crime and a short walk to good-rated local schools and village amenities. Broadband and mobile signal are average; this suits typical rural family needs.
Buyers should note some inefficiencies: the house has solid brick walls (likely without cavity insulation), oil-fired central heating and an EPC rating of E, which may mean future energy-improvement costs. The property sits inside a conservation area, so external alterations could be restricted. Overall, the home offers characterful family accommodation with scope to improve energy performance over time.
