Number 6 is one of 8 beautifully designed homes built with generous plots and fine views of the village and fields.  The property has been finished to a high specification with luxury bathrooms and underfloor heating and Systemair clean air system throughout.

The house is accessed by a large double opening oak door leading to the hall, where the ground floor rooms have beautiful floor coverings. The sitting room runs front to back through the house and has a handsome fireplace, woodburning stove and glazed doors opening onto the large terrace and garden. The flexible nature of the accommodation allows for either a snug/separate dining room or family room located to the front aspect and a very well-appointed kitchen/diner leading to a near fully glazed garden room. There is also a utility room and cloakroom.

Upstairs the galleried landing allows access to all bedrooms and family bathroom and there is a sumptuous ensuite shower room to the main bedroom.

Externally a driveway and double garage with sedum roof is attached to the house and has private door to the garden. The garden itself is wonderful with mature trees, a large area of patio to the rear of the house. A winding path leads to the studio which is fully ready for home working, gym or entertaining space with a decked area to the front and side enjoying the view over the lawn and a sunny aspect.
