The property has mains gas central heating.Through the front door you pass into the astonishing reception hall laid with natural oak floor. Doorways off lead to the generous lounge with impressive fireplace and a full wall of floor to ceiling glazing combining folding sliding and french doors opening into the rear garden, and then the second reception room; great as a snug/playroom or work from home office. The third reception room is immense, currently as a dining room, has a lovely aspect over the rear garden and is adjacent to the main kitchen.
The open plan living dining kitchen is simply... amazing!!! It is a massive natural light filled space with distinct functional areas, all combining to work as one, and through a set of french doors, opens directly into the substantial gardens. The kitchen houses an extensive range of units, complemented with granite surfaces and an array of quality integrated appliances. Completing the ground floor is the high quality utility and separate cloakroom.
The landing is not just a landing, it’s a huge galleried landing with oak hand rail, providing doors to all bedrooms.

Finally is the family bathroom, with bath and shower over.
Outside, the property is well set back from the road, and secured privately through robust gates, behind which is the extensive driveway, providing ample parking for numerous vehicles and a large integral double garage.
The rear gardens are exceptionally large, mainly laid to lawn, maybe a "football or cricket pitch" for the kids or, for keen gardeners, this is heaven, essentially a blank canvas to landscape to your heart's content. They also feature extensive stone paved terraces which are just perfect for lounging in the sun and partying alfresco.
