The Reception Space

Upon entering, you're greeted by a stunning reception area, cleverly divided by an impressive exposed brick chimney breast, complete with a cast iron stove. This expansive space is thoughtfully sectioned into a living area, dining space, and kitchen, each flowing seamlessly into the next. The oversized grey French limestone flooring extends throughout, leading into the kitchen, while exposed timbers on both the walls and ceiling bring warmth and character. The kitchen and dining areas are adjacent to one another, with the kitchen designed by John Lewis of Hungerford. It features a spacious central island with under-cupboards and a sleek Quartz worktop. A range of base and eye-level units, along with drawers, provide ample storage, and the double Belfast sink, positioned under two windows, offers a pleasant view of the garden cabin.

A door from the kitchen leads to a utility room, which boasts additional matching units and worktops, along with access to the rear garden.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms

All four bedrooms are generously sized, with three featuring vaulted ceilings that add an airy, spacious feel. Bedrooms one and two each have their own ensuite shower rooms, while a beautifully appointed family bathroom, complete with a freestanding limestone bath and separate walk-in shower, serves bedrooms three and four. The high-quality finishes are evident throughout, with all taps and shower fittings sourced from the premium brand 'Vado.' Two of the bedrooms also offer the added benefit of large, floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobes, providing plenty of storage space.

The Outside

A five-bar gate opens onto a sweeping driveway, with a spacious lawn to one side, leading to a detached double garage featuring power, lighting, and an electric car charging point. The east-facing front of the property provides a perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee and croissant while watching the sunrise. The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, bordered by a mix of fencing, hedging, and mature trees, offering a private, serene setting. The garden cabin, divided into two generously sized rooms, is complemented by a shingle area at the front and along one side. The paddock is a versatile addition, suitable for a variety of uses. For those seeking the good life, there's plenty of space to create an outdoor kitchen, grow vegetable patches, plant fruit trees, or even keep small farm animals for the adventurous.
