DESCRIPTION
Upon entering through the front door, you are greeted by a charming porch adorned with beautiful stained glass windows, a unique find the current owner discovered at an auction. From the porch, you step into the spacious sitting room, which offers a pleasant view of the front of the property. This room features a cosy wood-burning stove, adding warmth and character to the space. A staircase leads to the first floor, providing easy access to the upper levels.
Off the sitting room, you'll find the snug or office, a versatile room with rear-facing views and a door leading out to the rear garden, perfect for relaxing or working from home. Moving through the hallway, you'll find a convenient downstairs WC, complete with a toilet and basin. There is also a cupboard beneath the stairs housing the controls for the solar panels, helping to maximize energy efficiency in the home.
At the end of the hallway, you'll enter the extension, which is the bright and airy kitchen/diner. This dual-aspect room features large French doors that open out onto the garden, as well as substantial Velux skylights, allowing natural light to flood the space. The kitchen is well-equipped with base units, a sink, and a freestanding oven, making it perfect for cooking and entertaining.
Connected to the kitchen is the back porch, which has a rear door that leads to the exterior. Adjacent to this is the practical pantry/utility area, which currently houses the tumble dryer. This addition ensures plenty of storage space for all your household needs.
Upstairs on the first floor, you'll find a landing area that provides access to the bedrooms and bathroom. The first bedroom is a generously sized double room, offering pleasant views of the front and side aspects of the property. The second bedroom, though slightly smaller, is still a comfortable double room with front-facing views and a handy storage cupboard that contains the water tank, as well as additional eaves storage.
The family bathroom is tastefully designed, featuring a bath, toilet, and basin, along with Velux windows that allow for plenty of light and ventilation.
Outside, the property boasts off-road parking on the driveway, complete with an electric car charging point. The garden is beautifully landscaped and divided into various sections, including a wildlife pond, vegetable beds and mature shrubs and trees. The large patio is perfect for outdoor entertaining, and the air-sourced heat pump is conveniently located on the patio.
In addition to the features of the property itself, planning permission has been granted to demolish the existing double garage and build a new two-bedroom bungalow in part of the garden. This permission is set to expire in March 2026, presenting an excellent opportunity to create an annex, holiday let business, or additional accommodation for guests.
