It is finished to an exceptional standard, with high quality materials and fittings. Exposed oak timbers and solid wood floors are a feature throughout. A glazed entrance door opens from an attractive open porch to a hallway, with neat, built-in cloaks cupboards to one side. A door from the hallway leads to a stunning, zoned family room, flooded with natural light from two sets of bifold doors which frame the views of the garden and countryside beyond and create a seamless flow onto a wide paved terrace, perfect for outdoor entertaining and soaking up the surroundings. The family room is divided into three distinct areas, comprising a sleek and stylish, high specification kitchen, a cosy sitting area focussed around a wood burning stove in an oak-beamed open fireplace and a dining area with a vaulted ceiling, which is overlooked by the first floor gallery landing. The ground floor accommodation also features a double bedroom, currently used as a home office and with the flexibility to be a living room.

From one corner of the family room, a solid oak staircase rises to the vaulted galleried landing above the dining area. Light floods into the space from four, large, strategically-placed Velux windows. There is a fifth Velux window directly over the stairs. Off the landing are three delightful double bedrooms, all open to the eaves and featuring the exposed oak roof timbers. The main bedroom is filled with natural light, with Velux windows in the vaulted roof and, in the end wall, large windows and apex windows which all frame the glorious countryside views. The charming bedroom has a stylish ensuite shower room with twin wash basins set in a modern vanity unit. The two further bedrooms each have built-in wardrobes and they share a beautifully presented family bathroom.
