The house is approached through high wrought iron gates leading into an enclosed front garden that is mainly block paved providing extensive parking. A covered porch leads into an entrance lobby and through into the central hallway. To the right is the large sitting room which has an open fire and to the left through glazed cathedral styled doors is the library. Double doors then lead through into the wonderful kitchen/breakfast room that was hand built by Optiplan in a shaker style with long polished granite worksurfaces and a central island. High vaulted ceilings add to the sense of space. Beyond the kitchen is the living/dining room which is a special place for relaxing and entertaining. It has a light and airy feel with further vaulted ceilings and folding glazed doors framing attractive views of the gardens. At the far end there is access into the utility room, large study, laundry, downstairs loo and boot room with an internal door to the garage. Heading upstairs, there is a wide landing giving access to four double bedrooms with the main bedroom having a dressing room and en-suite bathroom. The original family bathroom has been replaced with a contemporary shower room that has a large walk-in shower. There are further stairs leading up to the loft styled fifth bedroom, which has its own en-suite shower room. Moving outside, the garden to the rear is enclosed with high brick walls and fencing and has a large paved terrace (perfect for al-fresco dining) with an extensive lawn and deep flower and shrub beds. There are two pathways (one through an avenue of lavender and over a water feature) leading to a further paved terrace and pergola in one corner with a greenhouse and shed in the opposite corner. The property is on mains services apart from sewers, as the house has its own septic tank system.
