Description of property • This distinctive and well-appointed village house is Grade II listed and has an abundance of charm and character throughout • The main house is spread over three floors benefitting from a beautiful dining hall with flagstone floor, a sizeable sitting room, a delightful snug with log burner, large kitchen/diner with a most beautiful fireplace with eco log burner and an idyllic conservatory • The first floor benefits from a master bedroom with en suite shower room, two further double bedrooms and family bathroom • The second floor has two double bedrooms, one currently used as an office, and an en suite bathroom • To the rear of Bank House can be found the first of two cottages. Rosemary Cottage being a beautiful stone built cottage. One enters into the kitchen/diner with a sitting room located adjacent. The first floor benefits from a master bedroom, second double bedroom and family bathroom • Adjoining Rosemary Cottage is Lavender Cottage. One enters via the kitchen/ diner which benefits from a range of fitted wall and base units, sitting room adjacent and a conservatory leading off. The first floor benefits from two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and family bathroom. Lavender Cottage also has the further luxury of being able to step out directly from the conservatory into a small courtyard garden offering an extremely private setting for one to enjoy those warm summer evenings

Gardens and grounds • Bank House is approached via a gated gravelled driveway which leads to the side of the house, past the two cottages to the rear where there is a sizeable garage and store with plenty of potential above to create further accommodation (subject to planning permission) • To the rear of the garage block there is an immaculate BBQ patio area with hot tub which is an extremely private setting where one can sit and enjoy the views overlooking the paddocks and rolling countryside beyond • The formal gardens to Bank House have an array of fruit trees including apple, pear, plum and cherry trees.
