Property   Stepping through the front door, you are welcomed into a generous entrance hallway.

To the right is the sitting room, while straight ahead is the kitchen/breakfast room and stairs rising to the first floor.

The sitting room is a wonderfully cosy and characterful space, centred around an attractive exposed brick fireplace.

Original features include exposed oak flooring and ceiling beams, while dual-aspect windows and French doors open onto the rear gardens. ...

  The kitchen/breakfast room offers a wealth of character, space and natural light.

Whilst offering scope for some updating it is fully functional and well equipped with a range of fitted wall and base units.

A Stanley Rayburn takes pride of place within the room, adding further charm.

A further reception room leads from the end of the entrance hallway and offers excellent versatility, with potential for use as a snug, playroom or even a ground-floor bedroom, with the benefit of an adjoining en-suite wet room.

Dual-aspect windows flood the room with natural light, while original two-tone quarry tiled flooring, exposed oak beams and a log burner add both character and warmth. ...

  Leading from here is the former formal dining room, which features original parquet flooring, exposed ceiling beams and an attractive stone fireplace around the original open fire.

The dining room in turn leads through to the conservatory which overlooks the superb rear gardens.

The conservatory is a particularly pleasant and light-filled space, providing a wonderful spot from which to enjoy the surrounding gardens and creating a natural extension to the kitchen and reception accommodation.

From the conservatory, there is access into the former wash house, now utilised as a useful utility room. ...

  Upstairs, the generous landing provides access to the four bedrooms (two ensuite), family bathroom, separate WC and several useful cupboards.

All four bedrooms enjoy lovely views over the gardens, while bedrooms one and two are both dual aspects, making the most of the property's peaceful surroundings and filling the rooms with natural light.

Bedroom one benefits from a pair of fitted wardrobes, cleverly positioned within the alcoves from the fireplace below. There is also an en-suite shower room with skylight.

Bedroom two has the benefit of its own en-suite shower room, while bedrooms three and four each have a hand basin and are served by the family bathroom, which includes a useful storage cupboard positioned alongside a separate WC.

Outside   The gardens and grounds offer an exceptional combination of space, privacy and established planting.

To the front, a private driveway is framed by mature trees, hedgerows and established beds, while a gateway to the side provides access through to the rear gardens.

The rear garden can also be accessed directly from both the sitting room and conservatory, which open onto the paved patios and gardens beyond.

A particularly charming feature is the private stream which runs through the gardens, with several footbridges providing access across it and adding to the idyllic character of the grounds.

The gardens are further enhanced by several summer houses, a greenhouse, two patios and a pergola, beautifully covered by a mature wisteria, creating a delightful, shaded seating area.

The upper patio area is surrounded by established roses, while a variety of mature planting, including pampas grasses and fruit trees, is dotted throughout the gardens. ...

  There is an array of different outbuildings, one of which provides a combination of garage, office, storage space with power and light connected.

Offering a range of potential uses, this building could also provide scope for conversion to further accommodation subject to the necessary planning consents.

There are two log stores and two further separate brick outbuildings providing useful storage space. ...

  A gateway from the gardens, as well as access from property’s own private lane, leads into a further enclosed area containing a useful double garage and a steel-framed cattle barn with a tin roof.

The barn is arranged with gates creating three separate bays, providing excellent flexibility for storage, workshop or agricultural use.

Beyond the outbuildings is an attractive pond and further areas of woodland, with a mixture of native and fruit trees, together with access into the property's approximately 7.5 acres of private woodland.

...

  The woodland is a key feature of the property and is predominantly made up of mature, deciduous trees and provides a useful supply of firewood for the property's several fireplaces and log burners.

Private pathways meander through the woodland, creating lovely walks and opportunities to enjoy the peaceful and secluded surroundings.

The final addition to this impressive property is the enclosed paddock, extending to approximately 1.32 acres.

The paddock benefits from direct access from the road as well as from the private lane and is well equipped with a useful two-bay 'donkey shed' and its own water supply.
