Originating as a 1920s bungalow it was fully refurbished in 2003 and thoughtfully extended in 2015, to create a bright and expansive open-plan living space. An entrance porch leads into a wonderfully spacious reception room with high ceilings that accentuate the sense of light and space. Currently used as a dining area, this versatile room could equally serve as a formal living room and includes a discreet home office nook that tucks away neatly when not in use. A very well-appointed kitchen flows seamlessly into a living and entertaining area, where a feature wood-burning stove provides a welcoming focal point. Bi-fold doors open directly to the sun-soaked private rear garden, inviting the outdoors in and creating an effortless connection for relaxed family life or sophisticated entertaining. This contemporary open-plan living area is the true showpiece. The kitchen is equipped with a generous island providing additional workspace and casual breakfast bar seating, flowing naturally into dining and sitting areas designed for sociable, modern living. This entire space benefits from underfloor heating for year-round comfort, along with a high ceiling and roof light that floods the room with natural light. Practical touches include a separate utility room with external access and a downstairs WC, adding everyday convenience. The ground floor also accommodates two double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite shower room and French doors providing direct external access—ideal for guests, a teenager's suite, or even independent B&B accommodation. These rooms have historically been let separately on a B&B basis, highlighting the home's flexible, income-generating potential. Upstairs, two further double bedrooms both feature en-suite shower rooms, ensuring privacy and comfort for family and guests alike. The large master bedroom is particularly impressive, with an expansive en-suite that includes a built-in steam room and a separate freestanding bath housed within the bedroom itself—a luxurious touch that transforms daily routines into something special. Outside, the very private gardens are designed to make the most of the sun's journey across the sky. Multiple sheltered seating areas catch the light at different times, providing perfect sun-trap spots for morning coffee, leisurely lunches, or evening relaxation - an incredibly appealing feature that's hard to find. Two useful outbuildings (a workshop and a summer house) offer additional flexibility, while a wood store keeps logs ready for cosy evenings by the fire. The generous driveway provides ample parking for several cars and even a motorhome, ensuring practicalities are thoroughly covered.
