Ft (stms) including a CONVERTED BARN offering potential SELF-CONTAINED ANNEXE, multi generational living or HOLIDAY let options - with a stunning 29’ OPEN PLAN living area paired with exposed ORIGINAL TIMBER BEAMS and mezzanine level.

SETTING THE SCENE
The property is privately set back from the street with tall privacy giving hedges and large iron swinging gates set towards the very front of the driveway. Sprawling out beyond this is a sweeping shingle drive suitable for the parking of multiple vehicles with access to the double garage and workshop located at the very top. Manicured wraparound gardens extend out to the front with wood stores located next to the home and in the top corner of the garden. As the space wraps around both sides of the home to the rear, multiple entrances to the property can be found at the very front including a separate access into the barn conversion, perfect if a possible conversion into a self-contained dwelling is a consideration.

THE GRAND TOUR
Heading in through the main entranceway, a smaller porch is the first place to greet you with the first set of stairs directly ahead. Immediately to the right and down a gentle step is the kitchen complete with a wide array of exposed original wooden beams set upon feature pamment tiling which give way to a mixture of base and tall mounted storage units which in turn house integrated cooking appliances including dual eye level ovens and inset hob with space and plumbing for further freestanding appliances with an enamelled butler sink with views into the rear garden. A recent updated access door here takes you straight out onto a side patio and into the gardens beyond whilst a key feature of this space is the grand red brick inglenook fireplace currently housing a cast iron multi-fuel burner. Turning to your left from the central lobby takes you into the dining room with further exposed wooden beams. This room occupies a dual facing aspect and also is home to a second stunning feature inglenook fireplace housing a modern multi fuel burning heater perfect for enjoying those cosier evenings with original stable doors separating you from the hallway next door. The hallway gives access through a second flight of stairs to the first floor as well as the versatile family room. This space is incredibly well lit due to its triple aspect with a third red brick fireplace and solid wooden door taking you into the rear garden. This room is somewhat unique in its layout with the first of the mezzanine levels formally used as the ideal home office with tall vaulted ceilings housing many original solid wooden beams. Just beyond the secondary lobby is the ground floor bathroom complete with all underfloor heating and tiled flooring. This space features floor to ceiling built in vanity storage with walk in shower unit and rainfall shower head. A secondary access comes towards the left of the property taking you directly towards the barn conversion with access coming to both the main residence and this separate living space. Just before entering the converted living area is a handy utility room with further storage and full range of plumbing with potential to turn this into a bathroom or shower room if so desired.

The first floor landing splits in both directions to take you to the first three of the bedrooms within the home as well as one of two bathrooms located on this level. Again laid with all tiled flooring, this room features a bathtub with shower head and low level radiator. Sat just next door to this room is the smaller of the bedrooms still more than large enough to accommodate a double bed with dual facing aspect and views over the gardens beyond. The adjacent side of this level currently houses two of the larger double bedrooms each of which are more than sizeable enough to house large double beds with additional storage solutions and soft furnishings with the added benefit of an en-suite Jack and Jill shower room split between both. The second floor again takes you to two further bedrooms with a handy character feature of a coffin drop door allowing for the easy movement of furniture onto this level. Two further double bedrooms feature large vaulted ceilings each of which give dual facing aspects allowing each room to be flooded with natural light and both spaces being more than large enough to accommodate double beds with handy floor to ceiling storage sat between both and further built in storage within the bedroom at the rear of the space.

The barn conversion is a stunning 29’ open plan living area laid with all solid tile flooring. This space accommodates the sitting and dining room furniture with ease as well as a modernised kitchen, home to multiple storage cupboards set around Silestone Quartz worksurfaces. Immediately you will be drawn to the tall vaulted ceilings with original tile flooring and rustic stained glass windows adding to the unique character charm of this living space whilst a cost iron wood burning stove brining stove sits in the heart of the room. A mezzanine level gives the ideal space to be used as a double bedroom if living accommodation is required or simply as a quiet reading or hobby nook, tucked away from the rest of the home.

The main section of the home at the rear gives multiple access points to the garden where raised herb gardens enclosed within brick planting beds. The remainder of the lawn sprawls out beyond this with mature tree lined borders to both sides and the rear of the home keeping the garden private and well shaded on the outskirts with large open lawn space ideal for entertaining family and friends to the middle. Additional wood sores and timber storage sheds can be found as well as a bespoke timber summer house nestled towards the very corner of the garden.
