About this place

Located along a peaceful no-through lane in the heart of the village, a substantial detached period home providing excellent value. Originally believed to have been formed from two or three traditional stone cottages, the property has evolved into an impressive family residence retaining many of its original architectural features, including exposed beams, inglenook fireplace and charming window shutters.

At the heart of the home is an inviting living room and dining room centred around a striking inglenook fireplace and enjoying views across the south-facing garden. A separate dual-aspect sitting room offers a more formal retreat, complete with an attractive stone fireplace and traditional shutters. The kitchen/breakfast room features exposed beams and ample room for everyday dining, complemented by a practical utility/boot room and cloakroom. The principal bedroom suite benefits from fitted double wardrobes and an en suite bathroom. Three further well-proportioned bedrooms provide flexible accommodation. A family bathroom and separate WC complete this floor. The top floor offers an additional double bedroom served by its own adjacent bathroom, making it ideal for guests, older children or multi-generational living. Services include mains water, electricity, drainage. Oil heating. For broadband/mobile speeds please check location at checker.ofcom.org.uk
