Description
Ground Floor
A traditional porch opens into a broad, bright open-plan reception space, where the immediate feeling is one of warmth and welcome. Solid oak flooring flows throughout, and a handsome fireplace anchors the sitting area. A statement oak spiral staircase sweeps to the first floor, cleverly defining the space while allowing openness and flow between zones.
Beyond this, double doors open to the rear garden, while to the front, a second bay-fronted reception room currently serves as a formal dining room. This space features natural light through a wide window with shutters and maintains a classic feel through neutral decor and a soft palette.
To the rear of the house, the kitchen/breakfast room is a sociable and practical space, with cream-panelled cabinetry, woodblock worktops, an island with breakfast bar seating, and a large window framing views of the garden. Integrated appliances and plentiful storage make this an ideal hub of the home. A door opens directly to the garden, ensuring smooth transitions between indoor and outdoor entertaining.
The ground floor also includes a cloakroom WC and a deep storage cupboard housing the boiler and additional household storage.
First Floor – Bedrooms & Bathrooms
The galleried landing upstairs provides access to four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is generously proportioned, with a range of fitted wardrobes, a large window with plantation shutters, and an en suite shower room.
Three further bedrooms offer excellent flexibility, two of which are doubles with fitted storage and space for desks or lounge areas — perfect for growing children or guests. The fourth bedroom, while smaller, still accommodates a single bed and would work well as a nursery or home office.
The family bathroom is finished in a timeless style with a separate bath and shower, tiled walls, and a feature floor with patterned tiles that add character and charm.
Detached Garden Studio
A true highlight of this property is the detached two-storey outbuilding, tucked away at the rear of the garden. The ground floor includes a stylish and private workspace with its own entrance hall, cloakroom, and underfloor heating — ideal as a home office or consulting room.
A striking wrought-iron spiral staircase leads to the first floor, where a further room serves equally well as a second office, creative space, or teenage den. With windows to both sides and pitched ceiling lines, it’s a characterful and highly functional addition to the home.
Gardens & Setting
The garden is secluded, well-stocked with mature trees, flowering shrubs, and established hedging. A paved patio wraps around the rear elevation, offering multiple areas for outdoor dining and entertaining. Brick-edged planting beds and colourful borders create a vibrant, relaxed setting. At the foot of the garden, a bistro-style seating area is nestled beneath the canopy of a tall eucalyptus, offering a peaceful retreat.
To the front, a block-paved driveway provides off-street parking for several vehicles and extends along the side of the property for gated access to the garden and studio.
