The property: Old Bush House is a delightful extended semi-detached period home standing in a generous plot with enchanting mature gardens and detached stone barn.

The décor enhances the natural ambience of the property, complementing the plethora of characterful features including original fireplaces, pitch pine doors, exposed timber beams and quarry tiles.

The versatile reception rooms radiate from the inner hallway with an easy flow of space connecting full circle. The elegant sitting room, with in-built cabinetry and feature fireplace, is afforded an abundance of morning light and opens into the kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen is fitted with timeless cabinets under quartz and contrasting oak worksurfaces, including a cooker with induction hob over and integrated dishwasher. Beyond is the garden room constructed in Idigbo hardwood with double doors onto the terrace with views across the garden, an uplifting space for everyday living or entertaining friends. Located within the former brewhouse is the drawing room with striking inglenook fireplace and dining area with vaulted ceiling. This superbly light and spacious room could serve any number of purposes including a music room, games room or studio.

A study, cloak room and utility room with access to the cellar complete the ground floor accommodation.

On the first floor are four large vaulted bedrooms, one en-suite, and a bathroom.

Accessed from the garden room is a large south westerly terrace ideal for al fresco dining. Steps lead up to a large expanse of lawn interspersed with a wide variety or fruit and specimen trees.

Tucked away in the corner of the garden overlooking open countryside is a summer house with patio and ornamental pond.

Beyond the formal garden is a parcel of land with separate gated access from the road and which would lend itself well for use as a vegetable patch or children's play area.

There is a large open stone barn that could be developed subject to the usual planning consents.
