An oak staircase from the reception hall rises up to a spacious landing giving access to the bedrooms which include a generously proportioned master suite with fitted wardrobes, a separate dressing room and a bath/ shower room, two further double bedrooms, bedroom four and a family bath/shower room. The detached double garage lies to the western side of the house, accessed via a path through the garden and offering additional space, with a first floor games room and a w.c. Outside The property is set behind a high yew hedge within extensive landscaped gardens providing a good level of privacy and with fields and the open space of The Green lying beyond the boundaries. A wide paved terrace around the house provides space for entertaining and there are many seating areas for enjoyment of the lovely surroundings. The garden is arranged with meandering walk-ways linking ‘rooms’ comprising areas of lawns, topiary features, deep herbaceous and established shrub borders, a water feature, a magnificent ancient yew tree and a stately beech and an archway walk of apples giving access to a productive kitchen garden with raised beds and a greenhouse. A large parking and turning area lies to the front of the garage.
