Set in approximately two acres of private grounds, it enjoys sweeping panoramic views and spectacular sunsets that bathe the landscape in warm colour, creating a serene rural haven with a sense of space and freedom. Inside, the home flows with light and openness, anchored by an impressive 43ft open-plan kitchen and living area enhanced by elegant pendant lighting and recessed ceiling downlights. Throughout, solid oak latch doors with cast iron furnishings, oak staircase and balcony balustrades, and an attractive stone tiled floor celebrate craftsmanship and style, bringing warmth, quality, and timeless appeal to every corner.

Stepping inside, the sense of grandeur unfolds immediately through a long, welcoming entrance hall, where a graceful staircase rises to an oak balcony landing. Twin opening oak doors invite you into the breath taking open-plan kitchen and living space that forms the vibrant heart of the home. Here, a dramatic mono-vaulted ceiling with skylights floods the room with natural light, heightening the feeling of space, while twin bi-fold doors blur the line between indoors and the gardens beyond, creating an inspiring setting for gatherings or quiet moments alike. The beautifully appointed kitchen blends style with practicality, featuring sleek cabinetry crowned with bevelled-edged granite worktops incorporating a practical stainless steel work-surface, a generous walk-in pantry, and an impressive electric four-oven Aga with splash-back and canopy extractor as well as built-in Fisher & Paykel dishwasher.

The information given in these particulars is intended to help you decide whether you wish to view this property and to avoid wasting your time in viewing unsuitable properties. We have tried to make sure that these particulars are accurate, but to a large extent we have to rely on what the seller tells us about the property. We do not check every single piece of information ourselves as the cost of doing so would be prohibitive and we do not wish to unnecessarily add to the cost of moving house.
" Once you find the property you want to buy, you will need to carry out more investigations into the property than it is practical or reasonable for an estate agent to do when preparing sale particulars. For example, we have not carried out any kind of survey of the property to look for structural defects and would advise any homebuyer to obtain a surveyor's report before exchanging contracts. If you do not have your own surveyor, we would be pleased to recommend one. We have not checked whether any equipment in the property (such as central heating) is in working order and would advise homebuyers to check this. You should also instruct a solicitor to investigate all legal matters relating to the property (e.g. title, details of tenure, planning permission etc.) as these are specialist matters in which estate agents are not qualified. Your solicitor will also agree with the seller what items (e.g. carpets, curtains etc.) will be included in the sale."
