House For Sale £795,000
A handsome and much improved Georgian style five bedroomed house standing in grounds of just under one acre (s.t.s)
Built about 37 years ago of traditional brick construction beneath a slate roof-line and extended in more recent years, this splendid family house offers particularly well-proportioned rooms possessing a light and airy atmosphere complemented by well-tendered grounds affording wonderful farmland views.
The beautifully presented accommodation has been carefully improved and upgraded with smart new bathrooms, well-equipped kitchen and an impressive re-laid driveway whilst enjoying a prominent elevated setting, set back from the road through the village, yet within a short stroll of a good range of local facilities.
Benefitting from oil fired radiator central heating and double glazing, the accommodation in brief comprises of an entrance hall with stairs off to first floor and door to a cloakroom. The dual aspect snug is a particularly comfortable reception with feature fireplace and views to the front. The spacious sitting room is a superb reception extending to 25ft in length and featuring stylish Bi-Fold doors opening to the rear terrace and gardens and the separate dining room is an ideal reception for entertaining, also extending to an impressive 25ft. The dining room leads to the dual aspect kitchen breakfast room, fitted with an extensive range of units providing plenty of drawer and cupboard space beneath preparation surfaces. A door leads to the spacious utility/boot room with cloaks cupboard and useful shower room.
The first floor landing has an airing cupboard and leads to the five bedrooms and three bathrooms including the wonderful principal bedroom suite comprising a large dressing room, newly fitted en-suite and French doors opening to a huge balcony creating a wonderful place to enjoy the amazing views and sunsets. The four remaining bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and are served by a newly fitted family bathroom with free standing bath and large walk-in shower and further en-suite.

The front gardens are laid to lawn with a row of magnificent Lime trees and an original brick and flint wall forming the south west boundary. The large rear gardens have well-tendered lawns and afford stunning views across farmland and countryside. Within the gardens is a working ornamental water pump, large water feature and a large summer house and greenhouse, both with power connected. The gardens are a stunning feature and extend in all to just under one acre (s.t.s).
