Situated on a pretty lane in the heart of the village, within the High Street.

About the Inside.
Upon entering the property, the front door opens into a practical porch area that leads directly into the spacious, dual aspect sitting room. To the left, there is a versatile second reception room, currently used as a gym, with convenient access to the utility room. The sitting room showcases charming character beams and has the potential to reopen the space for a wood-burning stove. There's also useful under-stair storage.
The sitting room flows seamlessly into a bright kitchen/dining area, offering garden views. The kitchen connects to a glazed utility room with ample worktop space and an adjoining cloakroom.
Upstairs, you'll find three light-filled, generously sized double bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys scenic countryside views from both windows and benefits from an en-suite shower room. The spacious family bathroom features a modern white suite and built-in storage.
The property is fully double-glazed throughout.
About the Outside.
To one side of the property, you'll find a spacious, level lawn, ideal for outdoor activities. A driveway leads to a charming stone-built triple garage, formerly the local smithy.
This garage includes loft storage and offers additional parking in front. Equipped with power and lighting, it also doubles as a practical workshop space.
