Nestled in the heart of a highly sought-after village, Flore House is a splendid semi-detached family home exuding character and charm throughout its 2,483 sq ft of accommodation arranged across three floors.

Dating back two centuries, this impressive stone-built residence seamlessly blends period features with modern comforts, boasting exposed stone walls, fireplaces, flagstone floors, and sash windows that flood the rooms with natural light.

Upon entering the panelled hallway, the sense of charm and warmth is immediately apparent.

The inviting sitting room features a striking stone fireplace with stove, triple bay window, and original flooring, creating an ideal setting for cosy evenings.

The dining room, complete with skylight and glazed panel to the kitchen, offers a perfect space for entertaining, while the rustic kitchen is well-appointed with an extensive range of units, dresser space, tiled flooring, and additional room for white goods.

The property features a third dual-aspect reception room with adjoining shower room and utility, presenting excellent annexe potential for multigenerational living or guest accommodation.

The refurbished cloakroom completes this wonderful ground floor picture. Planning permission has also been approved, to facilitate a first floor extension and further changes to the ground floor.

This would include a large bedroom with mezzanine, utility room and a kitchen extension.

Upstairs, three generous double bedrooms benefit from high ceilings and large sash windows, with a spacious landing that could serve as a dressing room or study area.

The recently refurbished bathroom offers a contemporary suite with bath and shower beneath a skylight.

The top floor comprises two further double bedrooms, both with original beams and vaulted ceilings, served by a modern shower room.

Beautifully landscaped, the private garden affords a high degree of privacy and is a fine space to relax, and unwind.

The covered pergola with outside kitchen area ensures alfresco dining will be very enjoyable. Useful additional benefits include a workshop and attractive summer house.

The mature array of plants, shrubs and trees set the scene for this absolute gem of a home. Double gates into the garden would allow for vehicle access if required.
