This spacious and light much loved family home for the past 20 years offers generous reception rooms, filled with light, and equally well-proportioned bedrooms. The origins of the house are believed to date from the 1800s when it was owned by the Church, and it retains character in its stripped wooden doors, quarry tiled and parquet floors, fireplaces and an Aga. The house is surrounded by a stunning, natural, mature garden adjoining open fields to the rear. Ground Floor Enter through the bespoke front door into a spacious and welcoming entrance hall, with stairs rising to the first floor, wood block flooring, access to the downstairs reception rooms and open plan to a snug/library.

The wood block floor from the entrance hall continues to the snug, the perfect place to enjoy reading a book. On the opposite side of the entrance hall is the sitting room, again with double panel glazed doors opening onto the front garden. The sitting room, whilst modern in its interior design, retains a nod to the historic origins with a stone fireplace housing a wood burning stove set on a raised flagstone hearth. ... Continue along the entrance hall to the middle and rear of the house where further reception rooms, the kitchen, conservatory and utility room are located. The attractive dining room has an open plan fireplace with Victorian style surround, slate hearth and quarry tiled floor. A further reception room, presently utilised as a spacious office, perfect for working from home, would also make an ideal playroom/hobby room or breakfast room. The modern kitchen/breakfast room, with 4 oven Aga, is located to the rear of the house and fitted with a range of cupboards with wooden work surfaces and a Butler style sink. The kitchen has space for a table and chairs or a sofa/easy chairs. Off the kitchen is a delightful sun room with doors opening out onto a flagstone terrace and with views across the beautiful gardens. The sun room and terrace are very private and the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee or evening sundowner. The ground floor is complemented by a useful store room/walk in pantry, a fitted utility room with space for appliances and a shower room. A door from the kitchen opens onto a rear, private courtyard with access to the garage. First Floor The staircase with turned balustrade and newel post rises to a generous landing with window to the front. The two front bedrooms are both well proportioned, one of the front bedrooms being the principal bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and door to a well fitted dressing room/bedroom to the rear. This rear bedroom is flooded with light and affords views across open fields. On the opposite side of the landing are two further bedrooms, one positioned in the middle of the first floor and one to the rear, a bathroom and separate W.C. There is also a large shelved tank room/airing cupboard, useful for storing towels and bed linens. Outside Enter through wrought iron gates onto the private driveway which continues round to the front, side and rear of the property. To the front of the house is ample parking and a mature front garden with trees and shrubs shielding the property from the country lane. The extensive gardens wrap around to the side and rear of the house which have open fields behind. The gardens are an absolute delight with a number of mature trees, lawns and planted beds providing an array of colour throughout the Spring and Summer months with the tree providing autumnal tones. To the far side of the garden is a useful wooden barn which could be either used as a workshop or for storage. Further parking is located to the rear of the property where there is also access to an attached garage. ... One of the major appealing and charming features of the garden are the various private seating areas. One is tucked away to the rear of the house directly off the sunroom with a lovely flagstone terrace with ample space for outdoor sofas or a dining table. Another private paved space is at the rear of the house, ideal for sun loungers or a BBQ. Views from the rear and top of the garden include the Sugar Loaf mountain in the distance and wonderful sunsets. The gardens compliment this beautiful home and offer a wonderful backdrop of peace, privacy and tranquillity.
