Property description

A Grade II listed early 17th-century and later five bedroom family home with a detached home office/studio, a garage, and an enclosed rear garden in the centre of the village.

Located in the picturesque old village High Street, this period family house offers family accommodation of approximately 2,116 sq. ft. arranged over three floors. While modernised to create naturally lit and versatile accommodation, the house has also been sympathetically restored and retains exposed beams, cottage latch doors and period fireplaces. On the ground floor there are three reception rooms – dining, sitting and family rooms - as well as a country style kitchen/breakfast room with doors out to the secluded south easterly facing rear garden with a detached home office/studio. On the upper floors are five double bedrooms, a family bathroom and two en suite bath or shower rooms. Bedroom three/office has a walk-through dressing area or study. Off street parking is provided by way of a garage at the side of the house.

The reception hall has tiled floors, panelled walls, and a door to the outdoor store. The three reception rooms have original features such as period fireplaces, the example in the sitting room includes a wood burner. The dining room and family rooms are both dual aspect and have exposed beams. The dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room has a tiled floor, country style fitted units with granite worksurface over and an inset sink. There is room for a breakfast table and French doors open to the rear garden. A utility room with access to the cloakroom lies adjacent to the kitchen.

First and Second Floors

On the first floor, are three double bedrooms and a family bath and shower room with a contemporary freestanding roll top bath and a double shower.
