Description
Westwood House is Grade II Listed and thought to date back to the 18th century, with later additions. It is a beautifully presented family home, full of character, with many period features, offering flexible well-proportioned accommodation with the opportunity to convert a former stable block into ancillary accommodation, or a fabulous ‘work from home’ space (subject to planning).
The entrance hall leads to a wide rear lobby area (with access to the courtyard and garden), and to the kitchen/breakfast room, with an induction range cooker. The utility room is a good size with added storage. The sitting room has an open fireplace, ceiling beam and window shutters. The adjacent study is dual aspect with views over the front garden. The drawing room has a feature stone inglenook fireplace. Completing the ground floor is a cloakroom/wc.
On the first floor there are five double bedrooms, four with cupboards (one has an ensuite). There is a family bathroom and separate wc.
All of the accommodation has been well maintained and is well presented, providing a very comfortable charming family home in a desirable village.
Outside
To the front of the property is a lawned landscaped garden with well-planted herbaceous beds and several seating areas. The rear garden has mature trees and borders, with a gently sloping lawn. It is private and enclosed, and provides plenty of places to relax and entertain.
The former brick stable block and store has great potential to be developed into further ancillary accommodation or a fabulous work from home space (subject to planning). There is a garage and off-street parking to the side of the property.

All fixtures, fittings and furniture such as curtains, light fittings, garden ornaments and statuary are excluded from the sale. Some may be available by separate negotiation.
