Approach
Settled behind electric wrought iron gates, an enclosed brick paved courtyard and an additional gravel section to the side provide ample parking for several vehicles. The detached garages and two carports are accessed from this courtyard.


Entrance
From the courtyard, a glass-panelled front door with tall windows to either side leads the way into the main house. Warm-toned wooden floors create a homely atmosphere, and the large windows flood the space with natural light.

The hallway houses a useful downstairs cloakroom and has doors flowing into the study, kitchen, living room, utility room and an inner hallway. Another door to the left as you enter accesses the adjoining annexe.


Kitchen
Simply breathtaking, the large contemporary farmhouse kitchen sympathetically blends the original features into an elegant, modern and functional design. Two charming windows overlooking the gardens and recessed spotlights brighten the room creating a light and airy atmosphere.

A huge central island with a solid timber countertop offers ample cooking space for any keen chef. There are a pair of built-in electric ovens under the island, an induction hob and dishwasher to the side units and space for an American-style fridge freezer. Finished to an excellent standard the kitchen has limestone flooring, space for a freestanding table and chairs, and a feature oil-fired Aga set in a chimney breast.

A cellar can be accessed under the staircase and doors lead to the lounge and dining room. The original front door has a lovely gabled porch and currently acts as a back door to the garden.


Dining room

Study

Utility
Opposite the kitchen is a useful utility room with amtico flooring and matching sage wall and base units incorporating a Belfast sink. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine and dryer, and a handy back door grants access to the garden and patio.


Living room
Situated to the rear of the property overlooking the gardens is the cosy living room with many characterful features including a simple ceiling rose, wooden flooring and a stylish freestanding log burner in the corner of the room. A set of bi-fold doors brighten the room and flow seamlessly onto the patio, opening the space up.


First floor
A staircase from the inner hallway leads up to the first-floor landing where all five double bedrooms, the family bathroom and an airing cupboard are accessed.


Master suite

Bedroom three

Bedroom four
Bedroom four is a generous room with dual-aspect windows looking out over the grounds. This versatile space is currently being used as a hobby room but would make a suitable fourth double bedroom.


Bedroom five
Along the landing, bedroom five is another generous double room with a window to the rear. Adjacent to this room is a useful airing cupboard.


Family bathroom
The large family bathroom has been stylishly finished with a shuttered window, high ceilings and a black mosaic floor incorporating a contrasting white tiled backsplash. A corner shower and a white three-piece suite comprising a freestanding rolltop bath with claw feet, a high cistern WC and a washbasin complete this contemporary bathroom.


Attached annexe
Accessed from the main entrance hall and separate stable door to the kitchen, the annexe has a modern fully fitted kitchen, a wonderful living/dining room, a shower room, an en suite bedroom and a cellar.


Shower room
Located off the annexe hallway, the shower room comprises white floor-to-ceiling tiling, a large corner shower enclosure, a WC and a washbasin.


Kitchen
The kitchen is accessed via a white stable door that leads in from the main courtyard. The room is a large open space and features white panelled wall and base units with modern silver handles, an integrated dual oven and an induction hob.

To the other side of the room is another work surface with a stainless steel sink and window looking out to the front of the property. The generous room has a built-in wooden breakfast bar, and a door leads to the hallway and further rooms.


Living and dining room
To the end of the hallway is the gorgeous living/dining room. This space features a curved wall to one side and two sets of double doors leading outside to the other. The focal point of the room is the fantastic woodburning stove with an exposed chimney flue.


Garden
Through the double doors in the living room is the annexe’s separate garden. There is a patioed area and a further fenced-off lawn, which offers a secluded outdoor space as part of the annexe.


Bedroom
The first floor of the annexe features a wonderful double bedroom with an en suite. The space has windows to either side and ample space for freestanding furniture.

The en suite comprises a bathtub with an overhead shower, a WC, a washbasin and a useful towel radiator. This bedroom provides a perfect private area as part of the attached annexe.

The annexe has been used as a successful holiday let, through Sykes Cottages, for several years, however, could easily be integrated into the main house in support of multi-generational living.


Outside
Both garages are located in the main courtyard with garage one being directly opposite the main gates.
Constructed in red brick with a tiled roof the enclosed garage is connected to two open carports which have windows to the rear overlooking the gardens.

The other garage has been rendered white and has a large garage/workshop area on the ground floor ideal for storing cars or working on larger projects. An exterior staircase rises to the first floor which is a large open room with three Velux windows and a useful shower room. This space would either make the perfect office away from the family home or an excellent at-home gym.


Gardens and grounds
The outdoor space has much to offer with this property having two patio areas flowing from the main house providing ample space for alfresco dining, relaxing or entertaining family and friends. This rolls onto a lawn with interspersed mature trees which wraps around to the original Victorian entrance. The whole garden is boarded by mature trees, shrubs, woodland or fencing providing a great deal of privacy.


Paddock and stable
A post and rail fence with a gate can be found at the rear of the gravelled section of the courtyard which leads into the secure 0.55-acre paddock. A gravel path continues up to the timber stable block which sits on a concrete slab providing plenty of room to tie your horses for tacking up and grooming.

There is electricity and running water to the block and comprises a stable, a storeroom for food and equipment and a tack room. Adjacent to the stable block is an open store and a field shelter.


Kitchen garden
Situated just off the wraparound lawn adjacent to the main house is an idyllic kitchen garden with six beds, a large potting shed and a magnificent greenhouse. Fully enclosed and having levelled pathways this would be any green-thumbed individual’s dream.

Beyond the kitchen garden is an extensive south-facing 0.95-acre lawn and orchard currently home to a chicken coup and second field shelter but has the potential to be fully fenced to create further paddocks if required. Beyond the orchard fence is a wooded area of native trees leading to the poplar-lined boundary.


Services
The property has oil fired central heating, mains electricity and water, and private drainage via sewage treatment works.
