The grand tour

Stepping into the main entrance lobby, the generous space allows for you to slip off coats and shoes before heading inside to the rest of the property, whilst offering additional storage areas and a freshly decorated two piece WC located under the stairs, with low level radiator. The kitchen sits towards the right hand side as you enter the home in the form of a 16’ triple aspect living space where solid wood work surfaces extend out around a mixture of wall and base mounted storage units with tiled splashbacks extending out towards the rear garden with breakfast bar seating space. The tiled flooring allows for freedom of movement with ample space for freestanding appliances. Just off from the kitchen is a utility room with an extension of the work surfaces, additional inset chrome sink and storage space where the boiler can also be found. The main living area comes towards the adjacent side of the home in the form of an open plan living space laid with all solid wood flooring and attractively decorated to create a welcoming feel. The sitting room is the first space that you enter, with front facing double glazed windows and wall mounted radiator sat just below. The centrepiece of the room is a red brick fireplace housing a wood burner with timber mantel and tiled hearth whilst an opening allows free flowing movement into the dining room area, laid with the same wood effect flooring leaving ample room for a formal dining suite with French doors opening into the garden with stunning farm field views beyond.

Garden

The great outdoors
The rear garden is fully enclosed to both sides and to the rear with a mixture of timber panel fencing, tall brick wall and low level chain fence, to enhance the views that sit behind this home. Initially a flagstone patio creates the ideal space to sit and enjoy with family and friends, whilst a lawned area reaches out beyond this with colourful planting borders and oil tank nestled to the side. The large timber shed offers the ideal workshop with the ability to potentially turn this into an external working area if desired.
