This is an impressive detached family home offering almost 3,000 sq ft of well-proportioned, versatile accommodation, arranged over two light-filled floors and presented in a traditional style throughout.

The reception hall provides a splendid welcome to the home and leads to the two main living and entertaining areas. These include the generous drawing room, which has tiled flooring and welcomes plenty of natural light through its south and east-facing aspects, with French doors opening onto the gardens. The secondary reception room provides a flowing, open-plan layout with space for a relaxed sitting area with brick-built fireplace and exposed beams overhead and a dining area with a wood panelled ceiling. Adjoining the dining area, the kitchen has elegant, shaker-style units in white, as well as integrated appliances and space for a breakfast table., plus an open utility area for further appliances and storage.

Upstairs there are five comfortable bedrooms, one of which is ideal for use as a study.

The family bathroom is found on the first floor with its over-bath shower, while an additional shower room is located on the ground level.
