4 bedroom detached house for sale

This prominent, four bedroom detached period home dates to the 1800's, and was converted from a former public house by previous owners and, since refurbished by the present owners. Crown Inn offers over 2,200 ft2 of flexible accommodation and perfectly combines both period character features with modern luxuries.

Accommodation - A welcoming hall greets you as you step in through the canopied porch. On the right is the kitchen; refitted with an extensive range of contemporary wall and base units offering ample storage with plenty of workspace above with granite worktops. There is the added benefit of a lobby area through an open arch with space to accommodate an American fridge/freezer. The kitchen itself is bathed in natural light that pours through a large roof-lantern above. Just off the hall you will find an extremely useful and practical utility and boot room, with plumbing and space for appliances and space for your coats and shoes.

Across the hall, the guest cloakroom feels spacious and has been refitted and redecorated. As you step in to the living quarters your eyes will immediately be drawn to the double-sided log-burning stove that sits within an attractive exposed stone breast. While open flow, there are three distinct areas for relaxing, dining or playing music. A striking, exposed stone Inglenook with an open fire offers the perfect spot to relax and unwind in front of, as well as the perfect backdrop for entertaining. Door leads through to the family/garden room. With a vaulted ceiling and twin sets of patio doors and a contemporary log-burning stove, plus the added benefit of a dry-store cupboard (with space to house a refrigerator), it is the perfect spot for watching your favourite shows or live-sporting events in.

Upstairs the sense of space continues with four double bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a dressing room with fitted wardrobes and cupboards, with a door leading to the attic. Each bedroom enjoys open countryside views across the roof tops of the bungalows opposite. The family bathroom has been refitted with a suite comprising free-standing rolled top bath, walk-in shower cubicle, WC and wash hand basin. Oak brace and latch doors add to the charm and character of this delightful home.

Outside - The walled frontage, being formerly a parking area to the original public house, offers ample space for parking while the left-hand side has been landscaped and sectioned off with fencing and trellis to create a private space for outdoor relaxing. An open gateway leads through to a further dining/barbecue terrace. To the right is a range of outbuildings, believed to have been stables, which offer ample storage and also scope to convert to further accommodation subject to the necessary planning consents.
