Description
Ewemove - A fantastic opportunity, this family home offers versatile living accommodation and generous double bedrooms set within mature gardens at the edge of this popular village. Off road parking for several cars and a garage, with open countryside views, makes this a home to envy.

Located at the very edge of the village with open countryside as a neighbour, this home is set back from the road with a good size frontage. To the right an easy keep lawn, whilst the gravelled drive leads to the front door and the garage at the side of the house, providing plenty of parking for the family cars, visitors or perhaps a caravan...
The front door opens into spacious hall and immediately sets the tone for the rest of the home. The wooden staircase with it's glass side leads to the first floor and allows plenty of light to fill the hall, beyond the stairs is the door to the living room, whilst on the left is the dining room followed by the kitchen. A very handy downstairs wet room (great if you have kids or dogs...) sits at the end of the hall between the kitchen and living room.

Sitting at the front of the home, the dining room is a great size with plenty of space for a large table and other furniture. A large window to the front and a smaller window to the side lets this room be bathed in natural light, making this a perfect space to put to other uses such as an home office or perhaps playroom. For those that like a snug, this room has an open fire and would lend itself to a couple of comfy sofas.
The living room on the other side of the hall runs the full depth of the house with windows both to the front and back, the windows to the back could easily be converted into patio or bi-fold doors to enjoy the fantastic garden at the back (the patio already has steps in place with this plan in mind). The main feature of this room is the cylinder multi-fuel burner which takes centre stage and gives this large room a cosier feel. Plenty big enough for all your living furniture and the family or friends to gather.

At the back of the home a fabulous kitchen dining room, windows and sky lights bounce light around this space and the garden views and greenery gives everyone in this room something to smile about. Entering the kitchen from the hall, this spacious kitchen offers plenty of room to work and well as storage. The sink sits within the units overlooking the dining area so the cook is always part of what is going on, whether it be a party or just keeping an eye on the kids.
Opening into a generous dining area again surrounded by windows, this lovely light area could easily be a summer room with comfy chairs or perhaps incorporate both and have a smaller table and chairs. Two doors at the end of the room - one on the left opens into the garage and one in the corner opening into the garden making this a great space to entertain from. The garage also houses a handy utility area where there is an extra sink as well as plumbing and space for both a washing machine and tumble dryer.

Stepping out of the kitchen diner onto a raised area that steps down onto a lovely seating patio, all finished with a pale grey decorative slab, perfect for romantic alfresco meals or for entertaining family and friends. It is from this area, steps up to the living room wall have been included, ready to knock through and have access into the living room. An extremely private space with loads of room for table and chairs or sun loungers to catch the afternoon and evening sun. The patio area opens on to a wonderful mature generously sized garden. A large lawn surrounded by mature trees and bushes - perfect for the keen gardener, kids or perhaps the family pets. At the very end of the garden, the base of a large greenhouse would make a great raised bed vegetable garden or perhaps lined would be a lovely wildlife pond or paddling pool for the kids... Options, options!
This garden is just fabulous for a family, or people that like to mow the lawn and just enjoy...

Upstairs the glass carries around the galleried landing adding to the light feel of this area. A large window at the end of the landing overlooks the open countryside and floods this space with light. At the top of the stairs the family bathroom lays between the master bedroom on the left and bedroom three at the back of the house, on the right, whilst bedroom two sits in front of bedroom three
The main bedroom has a light relaxing feel, with windows both to the front and back enjoying both garden and the countryside views.

Bedroom two is again a good size double bedroom also enjoying the light and views of the fields beyond, a perfect room for any child, teenager, young adult or guest.
The last bedroom has fantastic views of the garden, and is again a good size double bedroom currently used as a library/office space. This room too, would suit any use from nursery to guest room.
