The Old Village Shop dates back to the mid 16th Century with various later additions and enjoys a prominent village position with views over the village Church. In recent times the property has been renovated and extended, resulting in beautifully presented and spacious accommodation. A generous reception hall with solid wood flooring opens to the drawing room with feature Inglenook fireplace, walk in storage cupboard, exposed timber beams, wood flooring and door to cellar. There are two further reception rooms including a snug with wood burning stove and a large dining/family room with wood flooring, feature fireplace, exposed timber and French doors to the garden. The bespoke kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with attractive cabinetry with central island/breakfast bar, solid wood work surfaces and a range of integrated appliances including four ring ceramic hob, oven, further steam oven, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. There is a handy utility room and a shower room on the ground floor. There are two sets of stairs leading to four good sized bedrooms and a luxury family bathroom. The bedroom off the secondary staircase has a generous roof space area which could be converted into a further bedroom and bathroom. Outside, to the front of the property there is a cottage garden enclosed by a picket fence with a door to the kitchen/breakfast room. To the right hand side of the property is a single driveway providing off road parking and a five bar gate leads to a further parking area and a single garage. The rear garden is laid mainly to lawn with a generous paved patio area, ideal for al fresco dining. Railway sleeper beds house mature flowers and shrubs and there is a number of fruit bearing trees including apple and plum. All is enclosed by a pretty brick and flint wall. The garden wraps around the property on three sides, again laid to lawn, and enjoys views over the churchyard.
