The ground floor centres on a large dining kitchen with Rangemaster oven and an adjoining utility and shower room, plus three reception rooms that open to wrap-around gardens with a dedicated BBQ and pizza-oven entertaining area. Two oversized powered garages and off-street parking for six cars add rare practical convenience for a village setting.
The first-floor main suite is a strong family draw: a luxurious ensuite, walk-in wardrobe and separate dressing room create a private retreat. Three further double bedrooms, a large five-piece family bathroom, attic storage and a basement for extra storage give space for hobbies and family life. Recent renovations include new double glazing and other modern comforts while retaining original sandstone/limestone walls and character features.
Buyers should note some material points: the property was constructed before 1900 and external walls are assumed to be uninsulated sandstone/limestone, which may need upgrading for energy efficiency. Crime levels in the area are reported above average. Overall, this large, newly renovated home offers flexible family living in a prosperous countryside village with excellent local schools and strong indoor-outdoor entertaining potential.
