Located within the village, in 2.3 acres with an exceptional garden and delightful woodland.

ACCOMMODATION

The property is entered via the door from the drive into the hall, the flooring is an attractive and hard wearing LVT which flows through several rooms downstairs giving a sense of continuity and space. The stairs and main ground floor rooms lead from here. The open plan, kitchen/diner was fitted four years ago by the current owners, retaining all its original charm with exposed beams. It has an excellent range of floor and wall mounted cupboards, a sizeable island with pendant lights over and attractive white worktops and matching splashbacks. There is an electric Aga and an extractor, an additional electric fan oven, grill and microwave, and a four-ring ceramic hob, all from Bosch. The flooring is tiled and there is ample space for the dining table. Patio doors open out onto the patio and garden.

Along the hall there is a useful understairs cupboard. From here is a reception room, used as a study with views onto the garden. The utility room has full height built in storage, plumbing for white goods and space for a fridge freezer and a traditional Butler sink. The Worcester boiler is situated here; it is 6 years old and last serviced 09.01.25. There is also a separate cloakroom with wc and sink. The second reception room is a delightful snug, cosy in the winter with the benefit of a Clearview stove. Like the kitchen it has patio doors that lead straight out onto the terrace, making this a lovely room to enjoy in the summer months too.

There are two generous bedrooms on the ground floor, both well-presented offering flexible accommodation. There is also a family bathroom with a walk-in shower, wc, sink and a dual fuel towel rail.

OUTSIDE

This delightful and characterful home is located in a peaceful and quiet corner of the County. The secluded 2.3 acres on which the property sits, has become a wildlife haven, and the owners regularly see visiting owls, kestrels, sparrowhawks and many hedgehogs with this in mind the garden has been designed to be easy to maintain in order to remain in harmony with the surrounding landscape. The property has an unspoilt, tranquil and enchanting woodland, with pathways and a surprise view with seating area with far reaching views towards the Solway and Criffel.

It is evident that the sizeable garden has been a much-loved space by the current owners, with many hidden corners of well-chosen plants, shrubs and flowers. There are interconnecting water features, home to more wildlife and a wildflower meadow. There are numerous fruit trees, including apple, pear, quince, wild cherry and greengage. A pretty block paved terrace, ideal for alfresco dining and catching the afternoon and evening sun stretches across the width of the property. There is also a greenhouse, a workshop, and a separate shed for garden storage.
