The principal bedroom has a large en suite bathroom with twin sinks, large bath with a shower overhead. There are four further bedrooms alongside a family bathroom and additional shower room.
The lower ground floor, which was completely tanked by the current owners, offers very flexible space and is currently used as an open plan bedroom and snooker room. There is also a wine cellar and shower room.
Outside The house is set back from the road behind a pond, which was thought to be formerly the village pond and an area of raised lawn planted with young trees. There is plenty of parking to the front on a gravelled drive which leads to the front door and the double garage. The rear garden is well landscaped with a variety of mature trees and a wide lawn interspersed with flower beds planted with perennial shrubs and plants. Along the rear elevation is a deep paved terrace.
