Accommodation
Approached from Main Street via timber double gates, a pea-shingle driveway sweeps through the front garden and provides ample parking. The approach is particularly attractive, with lawns and well-stocked borders flanking the driveway, planted with a wide variety of mature shrubs, flowering plants and specimen trees. A charming stone outbuilding with flagstone floor, stable door and side window provides useful storage and adds further character to the property.
The accommodation is centred around a welcoming reception hall, creating an excellent first impression and giving access to the principal ground floor rooms. To one side lies the sitting room, a particularly bright and comfortable space with a bay window overlooking the front gardens. A handsome stone fireplace incorporating a wood-burning stove forms an attractive focal point. Glazed double doors open through to the dining room, creating a wonderful flow for both family living and entertaining.
The dining room comfortably accommodates a large dining table and enjoys direct access to the conservatory and the kit...
