DESCRIPTION
This extended family home, originally built in the 1930s, is immaculately presented having been modernised by the current owners. The ground floor layout has been carefully considered to cater for modern family living, from the kitchen/breakfast room to a sitting room with log burning stove and additional snug area - giving ample space for family gatherings. There is a separate dining room, a study, and a fantastic conservatory with underfloor heating and doors out to the garden. There is a vestibule which leads to a cloakroom and to the side of the property.

The oak clad stairs rise to the first floor where the landing has an airing cupboard and access into the loft. There is a large principal bedroom suite with dressing room/walk in wardrobe and modern ensuite shower room. Two further double bedrooms, one with fitted wardrobes, and a sleek family bathroom completes the first floor. There are fine views across neighbouring fields from the front two bedrooms, and the principal bedroom enjoys a pleasant outlook over the rear garden.

There is potential to extend over the existing single storey extension to create further first floor space (subject to any necessary consents).

OUTSIDE
A gated, gravel driveway to the front of the property, further enclosed by fencing and planted with some laurel hedging, offers plenty of parking for multiple vehicles and is punctuated by a semi-circular area of lawn. There is a secondary parking area beyond a pair of electric gates which provides access into a detached double garage (with power and lighting) and through to the rear garden.

The garden is a particular feature with an inviting patio area – perfect for entertaining - adjoining the rear of the conservatory. There is a large level lawn with some fruit trees and also a greenhouse which stands on a planted gravelled area. A detached garden studio, with its own store, which has electricity and water connected along with a heating/cooling system, offers a versatile work from home space. The garden enjoys a degree of seclusion with high hedging on either side and mature trees at the end of the garden. The rear boundary backs onto the Worth Way - a path for walkers, cyclists and horse-riding - although tall mature trees provide excellent screening and privacy.
