.
Entrance is officially made via the charming oak front door, where one steps into a quarry tiled Entrance Hall which gives access to the main Lounge with inglenook fireplace, beams and a delightful window overlooking the front gardens, which have been formally laid out in a traditional English cottage style. The Lounge gives access to a delightful Family/Day Room with direct access to the lovely walled patio garden, and which could equally be used as a Dining Room or 2nd Study depending on the needs of the next owner.
The Farmhouse style Kitchen/Breakfast room, complete with ESSE electric range cooker, seamlessly connects the Lounge with the Conservatory/Dining Room. To complete the ground floor spaces are the main Study and a useful guest WC.

The first floor bedroom accommodation is approached via an open tread staircase which rises from the Lounge, On this floor there are semi-vaulted ceilings and more exposed wall and ceiling joinery with the Main Bedroom enjoying fabulous views over the front gardens, and direct access to Bedroom 3 which has been utilised by the current owners as a Dressing Room, but which could equally be used as a childs bedroom, depending on ones needs. Bedroom 2 again has delightful views over the surrounding countryside and built-in wardrobes. The Family Bathroom is fully fitted with a white suite and not to be outdone by the bedrooms, more delightful views!

Outside, there is a detached Annexe formed from the previous Stable Block, with accommodation including Sitting Room, Bedroom, Bathroom and we are advised, has the capacity to fit a Kitchen area should this be required. This Annexe would make an excellent working from home space, or ideal for use for staying guests. There is also a turning staircase in the annexe giving access to a useful loft area. The remaining outbuildings attached to the annexe remain as 2 stables and a possible feedshed, and although currently utilised as storage spaces have great potential for re-purposing.

The gardens of the property are a true delight, extending to 1/2 Acre in total, and expertly laid out to create the most beautiful array of flowers and shrubs as one walks passed the characterful outbuildings and along the formal lawns, with a specimen Walnut tree taking pride of place between mature boundary screening for maximum privacy, culminating beside a neighbouring lake at the very rear of the garden. To the front, the house is approached by a long 'in and out' carriage driveway which passes by the annexe and outbuildings to provide ample visitor parking.
