Front Of House
Built from locally-quarried stone, this attractive double-fronted detached house occupies a prominent position in this popular village. Double glazed windows with original stone lintels complement the white half-glazed uPVC front door and there is a side entry to the rear garden.
Lounge-Diner (6.05m x 4.04m (19'10 x 13'3))
This huge rectangular room benefits from having the front door and door to the kitchen in the centre of their respective walls. This means that it is convenient and easy to separate the room into a lounge on the side and dining room on the other.
Entering through the front door, you're struck by the large flagstone-style tiles and the attractively-painted walls, with two large double-glazed windows which help to enhance the sense of space. The wall surrounding the fireplace has exposed local stone. The fireplace itself has gas coal-effect fire with a marble surround and lintel above.
There are wall lights on three of the walls, helping you to create a calm, cosy ambiance, together with a radiator, power points and ceiling light fitting.
Kitchen-Home Office (5.41m x 2.69m (17'9 x 8'10))
Entering the kitchen through the pine door, you step onto the linoleum tile-effect floor. The kitchen cabinets and worktops are solid hardwood, with a superb Belfast sink. A Diplomat range cooker adds to the quality feel of this room, with three ovens, hot plate, 4-ring gas hob and extractor fan. A refrigerator and a freezer are built-into the hardwood kitchen cabinets.
There is a large open space between the entrance door and the stairs. Perfect for these times, this is currently used as a home office - with a desk fitting comfortably under the stairs.
This room also has a radiator and ceiling spotlights and a door and window look through to the lean-to conservatory.
Lean-To Conservatory (3.66m x 1.04m (12 x 3'5))
Stepping up from the kitchen into this very useful room, you'll notice that there is plumbing and space for a dishwasher and washing machine.
This is a great space for homeowners wanting to kick off their walking boots and store bicycles and other outdoors equipment. There is also a WC within a brick surround, giving a nod to the times when this would have been an outside toilet. This room also offers an alternative entrance into the garden.
