The front door has an elegant portico, and opens into the expansive entrance hall which has doors opening to the principal reception rooms, with a fine oak staircase ascending to the first floor, via a half landing. The impressive sitting room has a fireplace with mantelpiece housing a gas coal effect fire. There is a further family room and a dining room with a connecting serving hatch from the kitchen.

On the first floor is a light and airy landing, off which are four good sized bedrooms, served by a family bathroom with bath, handbasin and WC. There is also a shower room with a walk in shower cubicle handbasin and WC.

The house is set back from the road behind a brick wall screened by mature shrubs and accessed via a tarmac driveway leading to the garage, with ample parking and turning space.

The garden is principally to the south and east of the property and has an expanse of lawn with shaped flower beds planted with roses and spring bulbs. The house has a mature wisteria and climbing roses. There is a wildlife pond with a decked walkway connecting to a further area of garden planted with fruit trees.
