A further large double bedroom offers excellent guest or family accommodation, while two additional bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom. The thoughtful first-floor layout provides an ideal balance of privacy and practicality, creating a peaceful retreat from the principal living spaces below.

The grounds are a particular feature of the property and perfectly complement its semi-rural setting. The formal south-west facing gardens are beautifully established, predominantly laid to lawn and framed by mature trees, hedging and specimen planting, creating a wonderful sense of seclusion and tranquillity. Extending to approaching one acre, the grounds provide excellent space for families, entertaining and outdoor enjoyment, whilst taking full advantage of the property’s elevated position and far-reaching views. In addition to the main residence, there are useful outbuildings including a three-car garage, substantial two-car carport within extensive parking for numerous vehicles, a three room pavilion; ‘wood store’ next to the kitchen all providing excellent storage, workshop and accommodation potential.
