Walk Through
This attractive dormer bungalow is approached from a paved front drive where a porched entrance opens into a welcoming entrance hall through glazed feature doors. The entrance hall connects the kitchen and living areas (to the right and straight on) with the downstairs bedroom and bathroom (to the left); it also hosts the stairs leading up to the two further dormer bedrooms.
Heading right leads into the kitchen, which includes a fitted oven, grill, fridge and dishwasher; a gas hob with extractor; an in-built dresser with feature glass windows and a sink with over-sink window. The room has attractive tiled walls and wood-fronted high and low units providing plenty of storage. There are preparation surfaces on two walls, with additional worksurfaces on the dresser. The kitchen has an adjoining utility room offering further storage and food preparation space as well as electrics and plumbing for a washer/drier. A side-door connects the utility room to the garage which has electrics and is where the freezer is stored. The living room is a good-sized room containing sitting room and dining room areas connected through an open plan archway. It can be reached directly from the entrance hall (leading into the sitting room area) or from the kitchen (at the dining area end). The room has plenty of space for a three-person sofa and multiple armchairs. It is wonderfully light: The living room area benefits from triple windows and sliding doors that connect it directly to the garden room whilst the dining area has double doors that link it directly to the patio and garden. The dining room area is also a good size with plenty of space for a square eight seater dining table and additional furniture.
The garden room (accessed through the double doors from the sitting room area) is a wonderfully light room from which you can enjoy views over the garden and fields in any weather. It has plenty of space for at least four armchairs and a coffee table, with double doors opening onto the patio and garden. Its wooden roof is both aesthetically pleasing and practical, offering shade in the summer whilst keeping warmth in in the winter.
Heading back to the hall and through to the downstairs bedroom reveals a pleasant double room with views out over the patio and garden to the fields. The room has fitted wardrobes on one wall and is directly adjacent to the downstairs bathroom. The bathroom includes both a corner bath, shower, W/C and basin.
Dark wood banisters lead up the stairs from the hall past stained-glass feature windows to a short landing that connects the two dormer bedrooms. These are both double rooms with fitted wardrobes. The one to the rear of the house has an ensuite shower room and views out over the garden to the fields beyond. This ensuite features a shower, sink and W/C and benefits from a skylight in the eaves. The landing also hosts a door providing loft access, with an additional loft hatch in the front-facing bedroom.
Outside, to the rear of the property, the south facing garden is a good length of lawn with a mature tree. It is bordered on two sides by mature shrubs with sections of hedge and fencing and contains a garden shed. The far end of the garden directly adjoins open pastureland (currently grazed by sheep). Near the house is a raised patio with doors to the garden room and dining room area. There is side access to the property from the garden just to the right of the patio (if looking at the house from the garden).
The drive, to the front of the property, is paved with a gravelled section and some mature shrubs. It offers ample space for multiple vehicles. There is also a large garage.
The property is on mains electric, gas and water. There is also a Water tap in the front and rear garden.
