Property description
This charming, detached home is set back from the road behind a generous driveway with ample parking and a detached double garage. Its traditional brickwork, gabled rooflines, and timber accents create an elegant first impression, while inside the property offers a wealth of character combined with a thoughtfully designed family layout. Period features such as exposed beams, fireplaces, timber doors, and decorative coving are complemented by light-filled interiors and well-proportioned rooms.
The reception spaces are particularly inviting. The dining room is centred around a striking exposed brick fireplace, while the sitting room is a particularly impressive space, enjoying a large, curved bay window. Here, exposed beams frame the walls and ceiling, and a bespoke window seat provides a delightful focal point. The kitchen blends style and function with wooden cabinetry, granite worktops, and a large range cooker. A breakfast area by the bay window creates the perfect setting for informal family dining. At the rear of the property, the snug is defined by a sweeping curved bay window that floods the room with light.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom showcases exposed beams and generous proportions, while the additional bedrooms are equally versatile. Bedroom two offers a neutral palette, en-suite, and built-in storage; bedroom three is a generous double with a large window; and bedroom four features vaulted ceilings, eaves, and character beams. The fifth bedroom provides ample space for shelving and a desk, making it an ideal home office or reading retreat. The family bathroom is finished to a high standard with stone tiling, contemporary fittings, and a rainfall shower over a P-shaped bath.
To the rear, the house opens onto a wide terrace that extends the full width of the property, perfect for outdoor living. Beyond, the generous garden stretches back a considerable distance, with sweeping lawns framed by mature trees and established hedging, creating both privacy and a tranquil setting. The size and outlook of the garden offer a rare sense of space, making it ideal for family life and outdoor enjoyment.
