Description

The Granary offers well-presented and spacious accommodation on two levels. Carefully designed to take advantage of its setting and modern living, this two story stone-built former farm building retains many original features such as interior stone walls, creating a beautifully characteristic and functional family home that will suit a wide range of regional and national buyers. Viewing of this well-designed house is a must. Heated by way of LPG (from a centralised tank) underfloor heating throughout, the site also has a private drainage reed-bed system.

The house is accessed from the pathway through the front garden into an entrance vestibule which in turn leads to the reception hallway. The kitchen/dining room at one end of the hallway is a large functional space that leads into the sitting room. The kitchen is large enough for informal dining and has French doors that lead to the communal courtyard at the back. The sitting room has a further set of French doors that lead to the front garden. At the other end of the hallway is the third double bedroom which is supported by a downstairs shower room. The ground floor also benefits from having a useful utility cupboard and ample store. An internal stair from the hallway leads to a landing with two further large double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

The Granary has two private parking bays to the front and a paved path leading up to the front door. The majority of the garden is laid to lawn boarded by a beech hedge. Towards the rear is a shared courtyard/garden to which this property has right of access.
