A square arch opens to the delightful garden room which is entirely constructed from a green oak frame, has a vaulted ceiling and French doors to the garden.
The kitchen/breakfast/family room forms the heart of the house and is extensively fitted with a range of floor and wall mounted units which have oak surfaces, two Smeg ovens, an induction hob, dishwasher, and a large central island unit. There is oak flooring throughout and bi fold doors access a pretty west facing courtyard making it ideal for entertaining.

There is a lavishly appointed en-suite with a roll top bath, rectangular sink on a wrought iron stand and oak flooring.
There are three further bedrooms, two of which have extensive wardrobe space, with the fourth bedroom making a useful dressing room if required. These are served by a lavishly appointed family bathroom with a roll top bath and shower over, and a matching white suite.
The property is approached via a sliding electric gate which accesses a large gravel drive that provides extensive parking and leads to the detached double garage, car port and the detached former bake house which is now used as a practical office building. The gardens are truly delightful and benefit from a south and westerly aspect, enabling them to take advantage of the all-day sun.
There are large expanses of lawn which are interspersed with well stocked herbaceous borders, a variety of trees to include silver birch and fir. There is a substantial studio/gym on the westerly aspect which is equipped with power and light, and has decking to the front and sides, making it ideal for entertaining.
