Property description

A period three bedroom detached property with two bathrooms, three reception rooms and an enclosed private rear garden in a village location with no onwards chain.

The property has been extended to include a combined approximately 1,890 sq. ft. of accommodation over two floors, including the outbuilding. Retained period features include exposed beams, quarry tiled and wooden flooring and stone fireplaces. On the ground floor there is an entrance porch, sitting, dining, and family rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room and a utility room. Also on the ground floor is the third bedroom which could also be a study and a refitted three piece shower room. An unusual feature in this part of the market is the ability to separate the family room, bedroom three, the shower room and utility room to create a self-contained annexe. The first floor landing accesses two bedrooms and a modern five piece family bathroom. There is on street parking to the side and there are shrub borders along the front of the house. The rear garden, enclosed by timber fencing, is mainly laid to lawn with patios for entertaining and mature shrubs providing privacy.

The kitchen/breakfast room has been refitted with a range of Shaker style units with quartz worksurfaces and uplifts, a ceramic sink unit with a drainer and tiled splash areas. There is space for an AGA and an American fridge/freezer. It has a breakfast bar and tiled flooring which extends to the rear door. The triple aspect sitting room has quarry tiled flooring, exposed beams and a feature stone wall with a fireplace housing a wood burner. The dining room also has exposed beams and has wooden parquet style flooring and a fireplace. The family room has another entrance, a vaulted ceiling and a stone chimney breast with a wood burner.

The principal bedroom is dual aspect and has a range of built-in wardrobes. Bedroom two has built-in storage and double windows overlooking the rear garden. The family bathroom has been re-fitted with a five piece suite which includes a separate walk-in shower, a free-standing bath, and dual wash basins set on built-in vanity storage units. On the ground floor, the third bedroom, with wood effect flooring, could be used as a study and there is a refitted walk-in shower room with a heated towel rail.
