**Accommodation**
An enclosed porch opens into a generous reception hall with a feature staircase to the first floor with an understairs cupboard and door out onto the rear garden. To the right is a large sitting room enjoying a double aspect. There is an open fire with stone surround and views across the rear garden.
From the hall another door leads into the dining room which also overlooks the rear garden. An inner lobby gives access to a ground floor cloakroom with the kitchen beyond. Within the kitchen there are solid wood wall and base units. Steps lead down into a garden room which was added by the current owners in 2002. This space is light and airy with a vaulted ceiling and doors onto the rear terrace. Used as an everyday dining area, it could be a soft seating space. At the end of the kitchen is a utility room with a gas fired boiler and external door.
On the first floor there are four double bedrooms: three of these enjoy double aspects and three also have southerly, far-reaching views. There is a family bathroom with separate shower adjacent to the principal bedroom and a further bathroom and separate W.C.

To the front of the property there is a wall with hedging and a double gate leading into the parking area and giving access to a detached garage with power and light.
To the east side of the property there is a useful space with a door into the utility room.
A notable feature is the south-facing rear garden which has a very gentle sloping lawn with a number of mature trees and a variety of shrubs. A really lovely space! The total plot extends to just over 1/3 acre.

**Material Information**
**Identity Verification**
To ensure full compliance with current legal requirements, all buyers are required to verify their identity and risk status in line with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations before we can formally proceed with the sale. This process includes a series of checks covering identity verification, politically exposed person (PEP) screening, and AML risk assessment for each individual named as a purchaser. In addition, for best practice, we are required to obtain proof of funds and where necessary, to carry out checks on the source of funds being used for the purchase. These checks are mandatory and must be completed regardless of whether the purchase is mortgage-funded, cash, or part of a related transaction. A disbursement of £49 per individual (or £75 per director for limited company purchases) is payable to cover all aspects of this compliance process. This fee represents the full cost of conducting the required checks and verifications. You will receive a secure payment link and full instructions directly from our compliance partner, Guild365, who carry out these checks on our behalf.
