Entrance Hall

3.13mx4.27m

A spacious and welcoming entrance hall, filled with natural light from the glazed front door and full-height glazed side panels. A standout feature is the staircase, finished in rich dark wood and designed to turn back on itself with a half-landing. This creates a sense of height within the hall and allows light to travel through the space, giving it an open and airy feel. The hall is carpeted and provides access to both reception rooms, the study, cloakroom, and the first floor, with useful under-stairs storage.

Cloakroom

1.4mx2.68m

A spacious cloakroom finished with tiled flooring, featuring a contemporary WC, vanity unit with integrated sink, Corian worktops, and built-in storage including a pantry-style cupboard.

Lounge

8.1mx4.07m

Positioned to the right of the entrance hall and spanning the full depth of the property, the lounge is a bright and generously sized reception room. Natural light comes from three aspects, including a box bay window to the front, a further window overlooking the garden, and sliding patio doors leading into the orangery. The room is carpeted, with a contemporary open fire providing a natural focal point. The proportions of the room allow for a variety of furniture layouts, with the connection through to the orangery extending both the light and sense of space.

Orangery

4.55mx2.57m

Replaced by the current owners, the orangery provides a more substantial and usable space than the original conservatory. Glazed on three sides, the room maintains a strong visual connection to the garden, with a lantern ceiling drawing in additional natural light from above. The overall effect is a bright, open space that changes subtly throughout the day as the light moves across the room. Laminate flooring runs throughout, and bifold doors open directly onto the patio, allowing the space to extend naturally into the garden when required.

Study

3.03mx2.92m

Located at the end of the entrance hall, the study overlooks the rear garden and is set away from the main living areas. Similar in size to a small double bedroom, it offers flexibility depending on use, whether as a home office, playroom, or additional reception space.

Family Room

8.43mx3.33m

Positioned to the left of the entrance hall and spanning the full depth of the property, the family room is a large and versatile space. It is dual aspect, with a window to the front and French doors opening onto the rear garden, allowing for a good level of natural light throughout the day. The room connects to the kitchen via a wide opening set into one corner, creating a natural link between the two spaces while keeping them largely separate in layout. A farmhouse-style tiled floor runs throughout and continues into the kitchen, reinforcing the relationship between the two areas.

Kitchen

2.7mx3.8m

Open to the family room, the kitchen is fitted with shaker-style oak cabinetry and granite work surfaces, combining a more traditional look with modern functionality. Integrated appliances include a larder fridge, a one-year-old dishwasher, and a 1.5 bowl undermount stainless steel sink with worktop engraved drainer grooves. A substantial gas range (available by separate negotiation) forms a central feature within the kitchen, with triple oven, grill and multi-ring hob providing plenty of cooking space. The kitchen is well-proportioned, allowing for easy movement throughout. Underfloor heating runs underfoot, and the tiled flooring continues seamlessly from the family room. Dual-aspect windows provide consistent natural light and views out to the garden, while a door leads through to the utility room.

Utility Room

2.73mx2.5m

Continuing the tiled flooring from the kitchen-family room, the utility provides additional storage and workspace. There is space for under-counter, freestanding laundry appliances, alongside a large integrated larder freezer and further cabinetry including a pull-out pantry cupboard. A glazed door, with windows either side, leads out to the side access path. Internal access is provided to both the kitchen and garage.

Garage

5.2mx2.73m

Accessed via the utility room or an electric roller door from the driveway, the garage is a good-sized space, comfortably accommodating an SUV, and is fitted with power and lighting. Above, a fully boarded loft provides substantial additional storage. Given the scale of both the garage and loft, there may be potential—subject to the relevant planning and building consents—to convert this area into additional living space, with the loft likely requiring a dormer to maximise usability. The owners have been led to believe the the boiler was likely fitted in about 2011 and has been serviced annually, most recently in late 2025. While not newly installed, it has been well maintained over time, with internal components replaced as required. We have been advised that the gas engineers recommend it not be replaced due to its efficiency and durability.

Landing

3.13mx2.67m

A bright and spacious landing, carpeted for comfort, with the carpet to the stairs and landing replaced in 2025. The landing provides access to all four bedrooms and the family bathroom, as well as loft access.

Bedroom 1

4.08mx4m

A bright and well-proportioned double bedroom, fitted with carpet and benefitting from fitted mirrored wardrobes. The room features triple glazing, with additional secondary glazing retained from when the property was purchased. A garden-facing window allows for a good level of natural light, and the room also benefits from access to its own ensuite.

En-Suite

3.02mx2.45m

A well-proportioned and mostly tiled ensuite, arranged around a double-width mains-fed shower with riser bar and a vanity unit with Corian worktops and dual overmount sinks. A frosted window to the garden brings in natural light, giving the room a bright feel, alongside a heated towel rail and low-level WC.

Bedroom 2

4.27mx3.33m

Located to the left of the stairs, bedroom three is a medium-sized double bedroom, fitted with carpet replaced in 2025. The room includes fitted wardrobes and a front-facing window.

Bedroom 3

3.95mx3.02m

Another well-proportioned double bedroom, fitted with carpet and benefitting from fitted wardrobes. A triple-glazed window overlooks the rear garden, providing natural light and a pleasant outlook.

Bathroom

3.64mx2.14m

The fully tiled bathroom is a bright and spacious room with large, frosted window overlooking the garden, allowing for plenty of natural light. Spanning one wall is a spacious bathtub with corner tap and shower attachment. Additionally, a fully tiled alcove shower with glass entry door provides easier access for those who prefer a shower or may find a bath less practical. There’s also a half pedestal sink, low-level WC, and heated towel rail.

Front & Drive

The front of the property is framed by mature hedging and established shrubbery, creating a well-screened approach with a good degree of privacy from the surrounding boundaries. A spacious gravel driveway sits centrally, providing parking for two to three vehicles and leading directly to the garage, with the house set back nicely from the lane. The frontage is softened by established planting, including climbing vines that return each year and add further character to the front of the property.

Gardens

The property sits almost centrally within a plot of approximately 0.2 acres, with the front garden and driveway connecting through secure gates on both sides to create a wrap-around layout. The outside space is varied, arranged into distinct areas around the property, from open lawn and established planting through to more structured seating and growing spaces.

EastAn east-facing pathway runs down the left-hand side of the property, providing gated access through to the rear garden, with an outdoor tap in place near the Utility Room.

SouthAccessible directly from the family room, the south-facing garden centres around a spacious sunken deck, with wide edges providing room for seating and outdoor use. The deck is bordered on two sides by a vegetable garden, while the space opens out onto a lawn enclosed by fencing and mature planting, offering both privacy and shade. The boundary fencing has been replaced within the last year.

WestPositioned between the south and north gardens, the west-facing patio is accessed directly from the orangery. The space is paved, with block edging laid by the current owners around three years ago and connects naturally with the surrounding garden.

NorthThe largest of the lawned areas sits between the patio and the driveway, mainly laid to lawn with established planting and hedging. A pathway runs through this section, linking the patio back to the side gate and allowing access around the full perimeter of the property. At the far end of the garden is the former dairy building.

The Old DairyTucked against the boundary at the end of the North lawn, The Old Dairy is a piece of local history. The original owners of the site held this charming brick building in such high regard that they intentionally retained it when building and moving into Brindle House. Now a versatile two-room workshop with rustic open rafters, power & lighting, it offers superb potential for a detached home office or studio (subject to any necessary consents or regulations).
