DESCRIPTION
Standing in secluded grounds of just under an acre in a delightful position on the outskirts of this popular and attractive Village, Rustic House is a detached family home that offers as much outside as it does inside. Having been meticulously maintained and updated by the current owner to provide modern fittings as well as many eco-friendly features such as air source heating, solar panels and an electric car charging point. Many of the double-glazed windows have been recently upgraded to the latest standard and all radiators are fitted with individual thermostats.
The private gardens have also been extremely well landscaped and maintained and offer not only an abundance of colour but also provide several sitting areas, a stunning Scandinavian-style grill hut, stables and a tranquil wildlife area with a large pond that has been fenced to protect the inhabitants from predators.
This is an outstanding family house that simply must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
