A shared paved and railed pedestrian pathway leads to the freshly painted hall door. Entered through an inviting entrance hall which helps set the tone for what lies beyond. The generous and light filled drawing room with feature fireplace, and a bay window which floods the room with natural light and overlooks the front drive and garden. A short flight of steps down leads to a second reception room, currently in use as a family living room. This could also be used as a fourth bedroom. This opens onto a bright conservatory now serving as a dining space. The well-appointed, light-filled kitchen to the rear with feature block-built chimney opens seamlessly into a breakfast room, where floor-to-ceiling glazing frames views of the beautifully landscaped garden. A large sub-basement provides excellent storage and further potential. A guest WC completes the accommodation on this level. Upstairs the three bedrooms are notably generous in size, with the primary bedroom spanning the width of the house and featuring two large windows to include a wonderful bay window overlooking the front garden.
