Property description
An impressive period residence of considerable character, set within generous and established grounds. The house presents an attractive combination of traditional stone and rendered elevations, with well-proportioned windows, stone detailing and architectural features that reflect its historic character.
The property is approached via a driveway extending through the gardens, which include broad areas of lawn, mature trees, established planting and sections of traditional stone walling. These substantial grounds create a wonderfully leafy and private setting, with a range of attractive outlooks from the house.
Internally, the accommodation is warm, distinctive and sympathetic to the period. The principal reception rooms feature timber floors, elegant fireplaces, decorative lighting and a wealth of traditional detailing, creating inviting spaces for both everyday living and entertaining. A characterful dining room is centred around a handsome fireplace and chandelier, while the comfortable sitting room includes a recessed stove, generous seating space and views over the gardens.
The country-style kitchen forms a particularly appealing part of the home, with cream cabinetry, timber work surfaces, a Belfast-style sink and a striking red Aga. There is ample space for a large dining table, making this a practical and sociable family room.
The bedrooms are generously proportioned and individually styled, with features including exposed beams, deep-set windows and attractive period furnishings. The principal bedroom is especially impressive, providing excellent space for a substantial four-poster bed and additional furniture. Further accommodation extends into the upper floor, where versatile attic rooms offer scope for use as bedrooms, home offices, hobby rooms or additional living space.
A well-appointed family bathroom includes both a bath and separate shower, while bright landings and staircases connect the various levels of the house and enhance the sense of space throughout.
Altogether, this is a distinctive and substantial home combining period charm, flexible accommodation and attractive mature gardens in a highly appealing setting.
