This charming and striking red brick period home is situated along a semi-rural lane leading from the village. Approached via a gated in-and-out driveway which opens to a substantial parking area, you are immediately struck by the impressive scale and character of this wonderful country home.

The main entrance welcomes you into a dining hall with an inglenook fireplace, beamed ceiling, and classic leaded-light windows, modern services such as a Crestron lighting system are an added feature. Leading from the dining hall is a charming sitting room with woodburning stove. To the right is a wonderful drawing room which has a generous bay window and period fireplace with an ornate surround.

Also leading from the dining hall is access to the study and cloakroom, whilst turning to the right leads to the kitchen.

The bespoke hand-made kitchen has a central island and opens to a superb conservatory that enjoys a delightful outlook of the surrounding terrace and gardens beyond. A separate prep kitchen is hugely helpful when hosting events and connects to the office room. From here a spiral staircase leads up to bedroom four which also has an en suite bathroom. This side of the house could be separated to create a completely self-contained annexe if you so wished.

The first-floor accommodation is equally impressive, with a fabulous principal bedroom suite. The dressing room has been fitted with bespoke wardrobes and cabinetry; steps lead to the most stunning vaulted bedroom. Furthermore, a well-appointed en suite bathroom complements this remarkable suite. Three further bedrooms and two bathrooms (one en suite) complete the first-floor accommodation.

Aside from the impressive front garden, the rear gardens have an appealing layout with a large terrace perfect for entertaining, and steps leading up to the main lawn area and secondary sun terrace.
