A Scandinavian designed four bedroom detached chalet bungalow with a rear garden with countryside views, in the conservation area on a quiet no through lane with access to the village church.

The 1,974 sq. ft. of accommodation includes three reception rooms, a conservatory and an open plan kitchen/breakfast room. There are also two bedrooms and a ground floor shower room. The entrance hall has a cloaks cupboard and stairs to the first floor landing which has a built-in cupboard and access to the loft space, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. All the bedrooms have fitted wardrobes. The front garden is bound by a low wall and mature hedgerow and the block paved driveway provides parking and access to the carport. A gated access leads to the rear garden which is principally lawned with flower and shrub borders, two patio areas, a vine covered pergola, a pond and water feature. There is a detached brick built garden store/workshop with power connected and a brick built potting shed.
