Returning to the Living Room, the INNER HALL has wooden Parquet floor and doors to the SHOWER ROOM. The suite comprises of a tiled shower cubicle, WC and basin with tiling to floor and splash prone areas. The inner hallway doors also lead to the KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM which has an excellent range of wall and base units with laminate worktop, incorporating a halogen hob and double oven and tiled flooring. A large picture window looks to the rear garden beneath which is a stainless steel two bowl sink unit, there is space for a dishwasher and fridge freezer. A half glazed door gives access to the garden and flagstone terrace which benefits from day long suns and also the UTILITY which has a range of base units with laminate worktop, stainless steel sink, space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
First Floor
Returning to the HALLWAY, the gently curved rising stair case lead to the light LANDING. The MASTER BEDROOM is dual aspect with a built in vanity unit and wardrobes and a sliding door to the fully tiled EN SUITE with corner bath and shower over, WC and basin. The THREE FURTHER BEDROOMS are light with windows to either the front or rear. One bedroom has a basin set within a vanity unit. A FAMILY BATHROOM has a paneled bath, WC and a basin set within a vanity unit. There is a storage cupboard and tiling to all walls. We understand the loft is bordered and benefits from loft ladders and velux windows which may be suitable for conversion (subject to planning).
Outside
To the front of the property is a lawn area which is bordered by well planted flowerbeds and mature shrubs. Running along side of this is the driveway giving access to the property. This leads to the parking area with space for 5/6 cars and the QUADRUPLE GARAGE with up and over door and power. A pathway leads to the rear of the property where there is a further lawn area surrounded by pretty well tended flowerbeds. To the side of this lawn is a flagstone terrace area, an ideal place for al fresco dining and enjoying the sunshine. An archway is set between two of the flowerbeds and leads to a very generous lawn area, with tall hedges to one side and has mature trees, including fruit trees. This spacious lawn has sheds to one side and a log storage area to the other. The bottom of the garden has a tall hedge bounding the property, with fields beyond. This area would make a lovely orchard or vegetable patch.
