A spacious and beautifully presented detached rural home, offering four/five bedrooms and set within approximately 1.3 acres. The property enjoys a selection of outbuildings, ample off road parking and a paddock, and has recently been redecorated throughout to a high standard, including new carpets and flooring. The full site extends to approximately 1.3Ac (0.52Ha).
On entering the property, doors lead to the ground-floor accommodation. To the left is a bright and generously sized reception room featuring a multi-fuel stove set on a stone hearth. Dual traditional sash-style windows allow natural light to flood the room while providing attractive views of the garden and the open countryside beyond. An understairs cupboard provides additional storage.
Adjacent to the reception room is the kitchen, benefitting from dual-aspect windows that frame the surrounding landscape. It is fitted with modern shaker-style wall and base units, wood-effect worktops, a stainless-steel sink with mixer tap, space for a freestanding cooker with an extractor fan above, and further room for additional appliances. Another useful understairs cupboard offers further storage.
The kitchen leads into a vestibule, providing access to the rear entrance, a contemporary cloakroom with WC and wash hand basin, and the utility room. The utility room features base units, worktops, undercounter appliance space, and a stainless-steel sink with mixer tap.
A further room houses the boiler and heating system, also providing plumbing for a washing machine, and could easily serve as an extension of the existing utility space.
To the rear of the property sits a cosy snug, enjoying peaceful views of the garden and surrounding countryside—an ideal home office or study.
Completing the ground floor is a second reception room which could also be utilised as a fifth bedroom. It features a wooden mantel with stone hearth, making it suitable for an electric feature fire if desired.
Stairs rise from the front entrance hall to the first floor, where four double bedrooms and the family bathroom are located. There is also access to the eaves from the landing, providing useful storage space.
The master bedroom is generously proportioned and enjoys lovely views towards the nearby stream.

The remaining three double bedrooms each enjoy countryside views and offer ample space for furnishings.
The family bathroom is bright and modern, featuring a bath, WC, wash hand basin set on a vanity unit, and a separate shower cubicle. It is finished with white tiling, wood effect vinyl flooring, a chrome heated towel rail, and enjoys wonderful rural views from the sash-style window.
