Property description
This exceptional home offers the rare chance to own a beautifully converted former public house, perfectly combining character features with a thoughtful, contemporary layout. Boasting original exposed beams, front and rear gardens, private parking and a spacious cellar, this property delivers charm and practicality in equal measure.
The accommodation begins in a bright and inviting living room, complete with wooden flooring, ample space for comfortable seating, and a cosy electric stove, the perfect spot to unwind. A cleverly designed hatch provides access to the impressive 14'9 ft sq cellar, offering fantastic additional storage. The living room flows seamlessly into the open-plan kitchen/dining room, which features elegant, fitted cabinetry, integrated appliances and a breakfast bar for additional workspace and storage. Sliding doors flood the room with natural light and lead out to the rear garden, while a dedicated dining area makes this the ideal space for entertaining. A separate utility room with WC keeps laundry appliances neatly tucked away, and a dedicated office completes the ground floor, perfect for those working from home. Upstairs, there are two generous double bedrooms, both with modern en suites. The main bedroom is bright and airy with charming, exposed beams, further benefitting from a stylish en suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe. Bedroom two is another fantastic double and has an en suite bathroom.
Outside, the property boasts a pretty front garden with a lawn, hedging and a welcoming path to the front door. The rear garden is a true highlight, with a generous patio area – partly sheltered by a cabana for year-round enjoyment, with steps leading up to an area of lawn, ideal for children and pets. There is also a useful storage shed. The property also benefits from a private EV charging point.
