An attractive, four bedroom period property located on the edge of the popular village of West Haddon with a number of original features and generous gardens.

Schooling is well served in the area with a primary school within the village itself and secondary education provided at the highly regarded Guilsborough Academy. Further schooling is available in Rugby, where there is a good selection of state funded and independent primary and secondary schooling, including Lawrence Sheriff and Rugby High School for Girls, along with the world-renowned Rugby School.

The utility room offers further storage with wall and base units, beech work tops over and plumbing for additional appliances. A door from the inner hall provides access to the side of the property. The dining room was a former chapel and benefits from high ceilings, a feature fireplace set on a black slate hearth, original arched door leading to the rear garden, with the focal point of the room being a magnificent stained-glass window. An open fireplace in the spacious sitting room is set on a flagstone hearth. There is a window fitted with low level shutters overlooking the front aspect and a further window to the side which overlooks the gardens. A ceiling rose and an arched recess provide character to the room.

First Floor
A spacious galleried landing has doors leading to a useful storage cupboard and the first floor accommodation, including the family bathroom which has a panelled bath, with waterfall tap over and handheld shower attachment, a large walk-in shower with glass screen, rainforest shower head and separate hand held attachment, along with a wash hand basin, wc and chrome heated towel ladder, with attractive limestone tiling to the floor and splashback areas. The principal bedroom has some exposed wooden flooring, Victorian style feature fireplace and dual aspect windows overlooking the front and side aspects.

Outside
A dwarf wall and low level hedging bounds the front of the property. A gate with two brick pillars either side leads to the front of the property, which has been designed to be particularly low maintenance, with gravelled areas and borders planted with lavender and a mature climbing wisteria. To the side of the property there is a driveway which leads to double wooden gates, beyond which the drive continues to the rear of the property through a further set of gates, where there is further parking for several vehicles in front of a double garage. There is an outbuilding which is divided into four separate areas and would make an ideal workshop, potting shed and log store, along with a summerhouse to the rear of the garden. A patio extends across the rear of the property and round to the side elevation and steps lead up to the main garden which is mainly laid to lawn with established trees. The garden is of a generous size and is bounded by a combination of leylandii furs, close board and wire fencing.
