The sitting room has an open fireplace and sliding doors to the garden room which the vendors use as a charming dining room with French doors opening to the garden, making it a delightful space in the summer.

Sliding doors from the garden room lead to the study.

This has an independent door to the hall and can be used as bedroom 4 as there is a well-appointed ground floor shower room off the hall making the space even more versatile.

The other bedrooms are well-appointed with one having four fitted wardrobes and there is a spacious family bathroom.

The gardens are a real delight and form a wonderful backdrop for the house with the open fields beyond. The vendors have deliberately not fenced the rear boundary so you are pulled into the view.
