“What really stands out here is how calm and balanced the house feels. The rooms are light, the layout works naturally, and the garden gives a wonderful sense of space and privacy. It’s a home that’s clearly been enjoyed and cared for, and one that offers huge flexibility for its next owners” Iwan Hall, Associate
Set back within mature gardens, this is a substantial family home that feels both private and well balanced, offering just under 3,000 sq ft of living space arranged over two floors. From the moment you arrive, there’s a sense of calm and space, with the house sitting comfortably within its surroundings.
The ground floor is thoughtfully laid out, with a series of well-proportioned reception rooms that flow naturally from one to the next. The main sitting room enjoys garden views and a traditional fireplace, while additional living spaces provide flexibility for family life, entertaining or quieter use as a playroom or study. At the heart of the house, the kitchen opens into a generous dining space, designed for everyday living and sociable gatherings, with easy access out to the terrace and garden beyond.
Upstairs, the first floor offers five bedrooms, all comfortably sized and calmly arranged. The principal bedroom is a particularly generous space, complemented by further bedrooms that suit family living, guests or home working with ease. Bath and shower rooms serve the floor well, maintaining a practical and balanced layout.
Outside, the gardens are a real highlight — broad, level lawns bordered by mature planting create a sense of privacy and seclusion, with plenty of room to relax, entertain or enjoy the changing seasons. A detached double garage and driveway parking complete the picture, making this a home that combines space, comfort and long-term flexibility.
