This is a fine example of a 1930s property, built for the local headmaster (the primary school lies just a few hundred yards away), it retains lots of original features and has been well maintained by the current owner and was re-wired throughout in 2008. The windows are large and the ceilings high meaning the rooms are bright. Original doors and some original floors have been kept but the property benefits from oil-fired central heating and double glazing to the rear.

The house offers 3 bed accommodation over 2 floors but a room in the roof would enable a 4th bed to be added easily, subject to consent. Briefly the property comprises living room, dining room, kitchen and utility downstairs with 3 bedrooms and family bathroom upstairs. The attic has been boarded out and stairs lead up from the landing.

The accommodation, with approximate dimensions, comprises:

This is currently used as a store but would form an ideal bedroom, study or playroom subject to consent. To either end are further storage areas.

EXTERNALLY

The property sits beside a track approx. 100 yards from the village road. The property is accessed via a gated driveway from this track which leads to the side of the house to the garage. The driveway provides room for parking three of four cars.

To the front of the house is a full length veranda opening onto a small walled garden and beyond this a further area of lawned garden with a range of shrubs

Immediately to the rear of the property is a large decked area running across the back of the house. From here there is access to the main garden which incorporates an ornamental pond (formerly used for ducks) and paved patio. Beyond this, the garden is laid mostly to lawn and this continues around the side of the house.

The rear garden has enough room for a vegetable plot if desired and the current owner also formerly kept geese.

To the side of the garden lies a single GARAGE with attached store and outside WC, the external dimensions of the building being approx. 7.3m x 3.35m (24’ x 11’).

Beyond the garden is an open field.
