Gated access leads to a covered entrance with tiled flooring and front door into a welcoming hallway with parquet flooring and spiral stairs to the first floor. Three reception rooms comprise a double aspect dining room with French doors to the rear garden, L shaped sitting room with woodburning stove, doors to the garden and double doors opening into a library.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and floor cupboards with built in double oven and grill, four ring hob and extractor hood and floor mounted oil fired boiler. A side door leads to a conservatory with access to a utility room and WC. There are two double bedrooms with front aspect bay windows. The main bedroom is particularly spacious with an en-suite bathroom. The family bathroom is also on the ground floor with a tile enclosed bath and shower over.

On the first floor is a spacious reception area ideal as a study with access to two bedrooms with one overlooking the rear garden and the second bedroom enjoying front aspect country views.

The front garden is lawned and stocked with a range of shrub borders and stone front boundary wall.

The rear gardens are delightful and a particular feature, extending just over 1.6 acres and enjoying a wonderful secluded and peaceful setting for the property. Immediately adjoining the rear is a concrete terrace with store and woodstore to the side, leading onto extensive lawned gardens with central paved sun terrace, all stocked with a variety of mature shrubs and trees, potting shed, summerhouse and two timber garden sheds. Towards the far end of the garden is gated access to the side leading to a large Ash woodland and orchard. There is a further area of orchard having apple, pear and plum trees.
