We have pleasure in offering to the market this fascinating Grade II listed conversion of the former Peacock Inn, forming one of only a handful of bespoke dwellings within this popular village, with pleasant aspects to the front across to the village church.
The property offers a wealth of character and features which beings with its beautiful ironstone facade behind which lies a generous and versatile level of accommodation lying in the region of 1700 sq ft.
The property has been tastefully modernised and refurbished throughout including underfloor heating to the ground floor, combining the benefits of modern living with traditional features.
The property is particularly versatile in its layout offering up to three double bedrooms with ensuite facilities, one of which is located on the ground floor allowing the property to be potentially utilised as a single storey home if required. Alternatively this area would make an excellent annexe space for extended families, teenagers or simply an additional reception room or home office.
The main reception area is a considerable size, part open plan to the kitchen creating a wonderful everyday living/entertaining space with dual aspect. There is also a useful utility/cloakroom and to the first floor two further double bedrooms both with ensuite facilities, as well as a useful third room which could be utilised as a small home office or walk-in wardrobe.
There are gardens to the front and rear with ample off road parking and viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
