The Property:
The accommodation is entered via a spacious reception hall with stairs rising to the first floor. The ground floor living space is both generous and flexible, beginning with a substantial dining room that comfortably accommodates a large dining table, making it ideal for entertaining family and friends. A conservatory extends from this room and provides a pleasant additional seating area, with direct access onto the patio and gardens beyond.
The sitting room is undoubtedly one of the property's standout features. Bathed in natural light from its triple-aspect windows, it enjoys delightful views towards the estuary and surrounding countryside. A striking stone fireplace forms the focal point of the room, complemented by French doors on either side which further enhance the connection between the house and its beautiful surroundings.
The well-appointed kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of wall and base units and benefits from a number of integrated appliances, including a fridge, freezer, dishwasher, microwave and Rangemaster electric cooker. A door provides access to the rear garden, whilst a separate utility room offers valuable additional storage and practicality.
Also on the ground floor are three double bedrooms, one of which benefits from en-suite facilities, together with a family bathroom comprising a bath, wash hand basin and WC.
Occupying the first floor is an impressive principal bedroom suite. This spacious and light-filled room enjoys an abundance of natural light from three Velux windows and pleasant views towards the surrounding trees. The accommodation is complemented by a luxurious en-suite bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath, wash hand basin and WC, together with access to useful eaves storage and loft space.
Outside, the property continues to impress. A large driveway provides ample parking for several vehicles and leads to the detached double garage. Above the garage, the current owners have created a versatile studio space incorporating a sleeping area, kitchenette, shower room and separate WC. The space has previously been used as occasional holiday accommodation and offers a variety of potential uses, subject to any necessary consents.
The gardens and outside space have been thoughtfully designed to make the most of the property's elevated position and stunning outlook. A generous patio wraps around much of the house, providing multiple seating and entertaining areas from which to enjoy the views. A fixed gazebo and summerhouse further enhance the outdoor lifestyle on offer, creating a wonderful setting for relaxing or entertaining throughout the year.
Combining spacious accommodation, exceptional views and a highly desirable village-edge location, this is a wonderful home that offers both flexibility and character in equal measure.
