This executive style detached four bedroom house is nestled in a valley surrounded by trees, hedging, wildlife and a small stream running on the perimeter of a plot approaching approximately half an acre, giving it an air of tranquility.

There is a lounge with a wood burner and that leads out onto an enclosed rear patio seating space, perfect for alfresco dining, a modern tasteful kitchen/dining room with separate utility and ground floor cloakroom. Many hours could be spent in the dining room looking out onto the beautiful rolling lawn, established flowers and shrubs and granite crazy paved seating space. A turned oak staircase with glass panel leads up to a galleried landing to the first floor where there are four bedrooms, principal bedroom ensuite and a family bathroom.

To the front of the property is a long driveway leading to ample parking surrounded by metal railings. Seating space completes the front. There is a gate to each side to access the enclosed rear garden with a greenhouse and shed off to one side. The rear garden is truly a delight with the established plants offering splashes of colour including a wild area for bees and insects. A pond is surrounded with lush plants and foliage and there is also a chicken coop and a sheltered seating and dining space. The detached studio currently consists of a large room, flooded with light from the large windows with wood burner and double doors off to its own patio space.
