A striking detached family home occupying a private and secluded rural position together with detached garage, ample parking and beautifully manicured gardens.
Morrells is believed to date back some 200 years or so and has been extended over time to create a fantastic family home. The currents owners have completely renovated the property to an excellent standard and have also designed and created the gardens which are a real selling point which can only be fully appreciated when viewed. The house is immaculately presented and comprises an oak gabled porch which leads to an entrance hall with exposed timber beams and staircase which rises to the first floor. Here a W.C. is cleverly positioned under the stairs and a side door gives access to a ground floor bedroom. This room enjoys a modern en-suite and could also be used as an additional reception room or study if required. The Kitchen/dining room enjoys a dual aspect and is beautifully presented with oak flooring, a range of bespoke hand painted wall and base units with granite work surfaces over, a two-oven oil fired AGA and a large electric oven with hob over. An opening leads to an additional kitchen area which provides extensive storage and a number of integrated appliances to include dishwasher, fridge and freezer. Adjoining is a useful utility with an integrated fridge and boot room with door to outside. The main sitting room boasts a wealth of character with exposed stone walling containing an original bread oven and a wood burning stove creates a central focal point with stone hearth. French doors open out to an impressive conservatory taking full advantage of the views out across the gardens and beyond. The conservatory continues around to the side where a study/home office can be found. On the first floor the principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect with un-interrupted views of the gardens and open countryside.
