***stunning grade two listed home presented in immaculate condition throughout and just two minutes from the mainline station and town centre***
Latcham Dowling Estate Agents are delighted to bring to the market for the first time in almost 40 years, this absolutely gorgeous, five bedroom period home, situated on a surprisingly generous plot with this extremely convenient non-estate location. This wonderful home has been lovingly and meticulously renovated and updated by the current owners since they purchased it back in 1983 and you can't help but be impressed by the way they've managed to introduce modern styles to compliment the original period features, so you now have a glorious home, that not only delivers on the open fireplaces, wood burners and exposed beams you would expect of a property of this age, but you also have the modern luxuries of a sleek and stylish open plan kitchen/ breakfast room and contemporary fittings in the ground floor shower room, en suite and separate family bathroom. In addition, there are two large reception rooms, both with impressive fireplaces, a barrel vaulted cellar, a wonderful half galleried landing which leads to three large bedrooms and then two further rooms up on the second floor. As well as the main accommodation, you also benefit from three versatile brick and timber outbuildings, a triple width carport, gated driveway and substantial and extremely private rear garden. All of this really does need to be seen to be truly appreciated!
