Upstairs, the home continues to impress. Four generously sized bedrooms provide restful retreats, each offering sweeping views of farmland and open skies. The principal suite features its own dressing area, a private en-suite, and tranquil dual-aspect windows that make mornings feel like a getaway. A fifth bedroom has been transformed into an opulent walk-in wardrobe with custom storage and a dedicated vanity space.

The family bathroom is finished to a spa-like standard, with a freestanding soaking tub, walk-in rainfall shower, floating vanity, and elegant fixtures.

The detached stone-built double garage offers flexibility for parking, storage, or leisure—with existing media connections that make it ideal for a games room or studio.

The property is accessed via secure electric gates, leading to a gravel driveway with space for several vehicles.
