Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys its own en-suite, while five further bedrooms are arranged across the first and second floors, alongside a family bathroom and additional WC. There is also a sixth bedroom that is currently being utilised as a study.
The lower ground floor adds further appeal with a generous playroom that could be used as an additional reception room, a wine cellar, and useful storage areas.
Outside, the home is set within mature and thoughtfully landscaped gardens. The south-facing front garden offers sweeping views and a colourful lawned area bordered with established planting, while the terraced rear garden is private and peaceful ideal for quiet enjoyment or alfresco entertaining, there is also a handy outside gardeners' toilet.
Ample off-road parking, a double garage, and additional outbuildings complete this superb package.
