About
Thought to have been originally built in the 19th century, this charming and deceptively spacious four-bedroom home enjoys a wonderful semi-rural setting with far-reaching countryside views, offering an excellent balance of character, versatility and modern living.
The property provides generous and flexible accommodation arranged over two floors.
The ground floor features a welcoming entrance hall leading through to a particularly impressive 20ft reception room, ideal for both relaxing and entertaining.
A bright kitchen/dining room forms the heart of the home, complemented by a separate sitting room, cloakroom and useful porch entrance.
Upstairs, the property offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room.
One of the bedrooms enjoys access to a private balcony with far-reaching countryside views and also benefits from its own kitchenette, creating an excellent opportunity for independent living, visiting family or potential paying guests.
A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. The property was thoughtfully extended with a two-storey addition in 2015, helping to create the spacious and versatile layout seen today.
Having been lovingly owned by the same family for over 25 years, the home has clearly been well cared for and offers a wonderful opportunity for the next owners to enjoy this special setting.
Externally, the property benefits from ample driveway parking and a delightful garden space, providing a pleasant area to relax and enjoy the surrounding rural outlook.
The property is further enhanced by a range of useful outbuildings, including a large garage/store or workshop, ideal for hobbies, storage or practical use.
In addition, the separate studio offers excellent versatility and potential for those wishing to work from home or run a small business.
The space is currently used as a home hairdressing salon, demonstrating the fantastic opportunity it provides for a variety of home-based enterprises.
Set within an attractive countryside backdrop yet conveniently positioned for nearby towns and road links, this characterful home offers a wonderful lifestyle opportunity for those seeking space, flexibility and rural views.
