To the ground floor there are three main receptions including a living area which links through into a dining kitchen and providing aspects to three elevations, leading out into both the front and rear gardens. This area is of generous proportions and will undoubtedly become the hub of the home. In addition there is a useful utility room and ground floor cloak room and a central hallway providing a light an airy space that looks up to an attractive galleried landing above.
The property benefits from modern fixtures and fittings and relatively neutral decoration throughout and would be an excellent family home for those either upsizing or relocating into this popular village.
