An excellent opportunity to purchase an interesting and deceptive home, originally completed in 2005 as part of the Whipling Farm development, being one of a handful of attractive homes located within this conservation area and affording a westerly aspect across to an attractive central paddock.
The property offers an excellent level of internal accommodation approaching 2,000 sq.ft., is tastefully presented throughout with both contemporary and traditional elements. To the first floor there are up to four double bedrooms, two of which benefit from ensuite facilities, with the principle bedroom also offering a walk in dressing room. In addition there is a family bathroom and all are located off an attractive, central, galleried landing.
The ground floor layout works particularly well offering a generous living/entertaining space that is open plan to a tastefully appointed, updated kitchen with a utility room off. The kitchen and living area both have an aspect into the rear garden, the focal point of the room being an attractive solid fuel stove. Leading off a central hallway is a ground floor cloakroom and two further receptions providing a more formal sitting room and separate dining room which alternatively would make an excellent home office or play room.
In addition the property is tastefully presented throughout with modern decoration and benefits from gas central heating and double glazing which overall combine to create a stunning home, large enough to accommodate families. It would however also appeal to a wider audience, whether it be from professional couples or even potentially those downsizing from considerably larger dwellings and still looking for a good level of accommodation which is situated in an attractive village setting.
As well as the internal accommodation the property occupies a delightful corner plot with a generous established frontage and a pleasant aspect into the village. To the rear is an enclosed secure garden which links back into the living area of the kitchen. In addition there is a double width driveway which leads to an attached double garage.
Overall viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
