House For Sale £695,000
Set in the heart of the village, this lovely country residence holds a slightly elevated position, enjoying an idyllic spot, right next to the beautiful ancient parish church of St. Botolph. With its attractive exterior and generous gardens to the rear and side, the wonderful views over the church yard next door give it the sense of a slower paced by-gone era.
Presented to an exceptional standard throughout, all rooms benefit from excellent levels of natural light together with a practical family layout. The accommodation in brief offers: Entrance hall, living room and a superb bespoke, oak fitted kitchen, which is open plan to a generous dining/family room. Upstairs there are two generous double bedrooms, a smaller third with a contemporary shower room completing this floor.
A particular feature of this lovely home is the generous gardens that wrap around two sides of the property. The gardens are well stocked with a variety of mature plants, flowers and trees that provide interest and colour throughout the year. There are several areas to sit and relax, as well as a large flagstone patio area to the immediate rear of the house, perfect for al-fresco dining in the warmer months.
There are also several outbuildings, one of which is beautifully fitted for use as a guest room. There is ample storage and an ideal opportunity for a studio/gym or work from home space, if required.
There is ample space to extend the house, subject to the usual planning consents.
This delightful house is an absolute ‘’must see’’ for anyone looking for country living, whilst still retaining easy access to an array of amenities and a choice of stations in the surrounding towns and villages.
