It is screened from the road by mature hedging that fronts neat lawns, with a block brick pathway winding upwards to meet the house There is rear garden access at both sides of the house, and its red brick exterior with stone mullion windows and double gabled roof points deliver plenty of kerb appeal.

Behind is the fabulous kitchen, breakfast, dining room. It is a generous space, perfect for entertaining but equally ideal for family living. With triple aspect light, vaulted Velux windows and French doors opening into the garden, it is wonderfully bright.

The open plan kitchen space is beautifully finished and fully equipped as you would expect from a house of this quality. Light bounces off the gleaming granite countertops which contrast beautifully with the Neptune Shaker style cabinetry that houses and separates the appliances and the limestone tiled flooring. The island has a breakfast bar overhang for your morning coffee, pull out bins, an integrated Miele dishwasher and double Belfast sinks with a boiling and filtered water tap. The bespoke cabinets deliver on every level with pan drawers, a larder cupboard with spice racks, a curved base unit and an overmantel above the Aga with fitted storage. The integrated full height fridge and an additional integrated fridge/freezer ensure all your family`s needs are met, and the space is cleverly zoned with plenty of room for a dining table and chairs too.

Off the kitchen is a separate spacious utility room. It has fitted storage cupboards, another sink for muddy paws and boots, room for additional appliances, and side and rear access into the garden.

Accessed from the hallway and the kitchen is the large living room, with ample space for family sofas. Its rear bi-folding doors can lie open in the summer months extending the living space onto the garden terrace and a wood burning stove adds character and warmth in the winter.

Next door to the front is the home office, perfect to escape the morning commute, and there is a family room to the rear, currently used as a playroom for visiting grandchildren.

Climbing the stairs to the first floor there are four double bedrooms, all with large windows and fitted storage.

The principal bedroom has wonderful green views, and it benefits from a contemporary en-suite shower room.

The family bathroom with a freestanding roll top bath and separate shower cubicle completes the floor.

Outside the beautiful south west facing garden is wonderfully large and private with a paved terrace, perfect for summer dining, at the rear of the house. The expansive lawn is bordered on all sides by high hedging, with specimen trees, mature planting, and stocked flower beds adding interest and colour. A part-glazed potting shed is fronted by a circular paved terrace, with raised vegetable beds constructed from timber sleepers positioned behind.

The garden is fully enclosed, offering a safe sanctuary for children and pets and there is gated access onto the driveway, with parking for two cars, to the rear and pedestrian access into the double garage.
