A bay-fronted and bright sitting room has a cosy log burning stove for cooler days and nights, while a second, 22 foot reception room also features a warming stove, and has French Doors to a west-facing terrace, providing a great facility for indoor to outdoor living.

The modern kitchen has satin-gloss cabinets with an island and plenty of space for a dining suite, and two sets of French Doors that lead outside - ideal for the summer.

A separate utility room has a door to the integral garage and there is also a handy ground floor shower room.

Four double bedrooms on the first floor include one with its own en suite bathroom, along with a luxurious family bathroom and a fifth bedroom or study.

Stairs lead up to a sizeable and versatile loft with vaulted ceiling and Velux windows, that is currently used as both a gym and a playroom.

There is private parking to the front of the garage, while to the rear of the house is an attractive lawned garden with planted borders and a range of established trees, plants and shrubs.

There are terraces with seating areas and a timber-built summer house that backs on to a former golf course, with westerly open views.
