This enchanting and most attractive detached period house enjoys a pleasant, set back from the road position within this highly sought after village. The current owners have transformed the property with a program of enlargement, full refurbishment, re-modelling and re-thatching with reed, which means the roof shouldn’t need a complete re-thatching for another 70 years. The staircase has even been repositioned, allowing the accommodation to flow beautifully. Although fully refurbished, the owners have taken great care to preserve the original integrity of the building including a wealth of exposed timbers, fireplaces and brick floors, with a seamless blend of old and new. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall with door to a large triple aspect sitting room with Inglenook fire, beautiful brick flooring and exposed timber beams. There is a dual aspect formal dining room with solid oak flooring and an oak staircase to the first floor. The kitchen/ breakfast/family room is particularly worthy of note and fitted with the most attractive cabinetry by deVOL, marble working surfaces and splashbacks with double Butler sinks, integrated dishwasher, range style cooker and flag stone flooring. Just off the kitchen is a handy utility room, study and a luxury bathroom with roll top bath. Upstairs there are five bedrooms and a family bathroom. Outside, the property is set back from the road and screened by hedging. There is off road parking for several vehicles and a double cart lodge with workshop attached offering potential for conversion. There are mature and private gardens on all sides, mainly laid to lawn, with flower and shrub borders and beds, a wide and varied selection of specimen and fruit bearing trees, vegetable and herb garden and a detached studio ideal for those who work from home.
