Property description

Metcombe is a pleasant rural hamlet on the outskirts of the very popular village of Tipton St John adjoining open fields with lovely outlooks but only a few minutes level walk from the excellent local amenities, including the highly regarded Primary School. The property also benefits from being within the Kings School catchment area.



The light and airy well proportioned accommodation briefly comprises: spacious entrance hall with attractive oak effect flooring creating a good first impression. The comfortable sitting room has a feature focal fireplace (potential for wood burner). The kitchen/dining room is an impressive open plan room with an extensive range of cream fronted cupboards and drawers both at base and eye level enhanced by solid timber worktops and attractive tiled splashbacks. There’s plenty of room for modern appliances and a family sized dining table and chairs. This lovely dual aspect room has French doors giving direct access to the rear garden. There is a utility/boot room concluding the ground floor.



On the first floor are three bedrooms and a family bathroom fitted with a modern suite with a separate WC. The property benefits from pvcu double glazing and a modern gas central heating system. The property lends itself to extend in a variety of ways, creating potential for a fourth and fifth bedroom if required, subject to the necessary planning permissions/consents.



Outside to the front of the property is easy unreserved parking and an open plan, laid to lawn garden with a pathway leading to the front door. The rear garden is another appealing feature due to its size with a paved patio area and decking area, allowing plenty of room to enjoy dining. There is an expanse of lawn and lovely views can be enjoyed over the adjoining countryside. An outbuilding currently provides storage but would lend itself as a study/office if ever required.
