A skilfully extended detached home in a tranquil village location with a superb home office / studio set in beautifully private gardens at the end of a quiet village cul-de-sac.

The property: This exceptional village house has been skilfully extended on two floors and is set in a remarkably private garden at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac.

The present owners use the substantial timber studio to run a successful business. Separate sitting and dining rooms flank the stairs to the first floor.

The sitting room has a gas coal effect fire set into a traditional surround with wooden mantle.

Double doors lead through to the impressively proportioned kitchen/breakfast room that spans the width of the house and has direct access to the garden.

To one end of this room is an informal dining area with a beautifully appointed kitchen with traditional floor and wall cabinets with expansive wood effect work surfaces to the other.

Prominently positioned is a double oven range with decorative tiled splashback beneath a wide cooker hood.

The light dining room has a wood effect floor and his links to the kitchen via an inner hall which also provides access to a separate utility room and downstairs cloakroom.

The principal bedroom suite consists of a distinct dressing area, bedroom overlooking the beautiful rear garden and a stylish shower room.

Two of the three remaining bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and there is a stylish family bathroom off the landing.

To the front of the property there is an open plan garden with driveway parking on the approach to a single garage. The property has an attractive sylvan outlook to the front.

The wider than average rear garden comfortably accommodates a substantial timber studio used by the present owner as a workspace.

This may be accessed via gated pedestrian access to the side of the house.

Immediately adjacent to the property is a paved terrace with a pleasing serpentine shape beyond which is a shaped lawn and mature, remarkably private garden.

It is difficult to fully appreciate the scale and quality of this house without internal viewing!
