The light and spacious entrance hall welcomes you into Sundial through a composite entrance door. There is storage in the hall and to one side is the cosy snug, which boasts a cast-iron wood burner, brick fireplace with quarry tiled hearth and a feature curved window to the front aspect.
Eye-catching arched double doors with fixed side windows open into the sitting room, which also has a feature curved window, fireplace and wood burner.
On the other side of the main entrance hall are doors to the dining room and the utility, both of which lead through into the spacious kitchen/breakfast room.
This room is fitted with a range of cream shaker-style units with solid wood worktops, a ceramic butler sink with mixer tap and a larder cupboard.
A tiled recess offers space for a large AGA (available by separate negotiation) and there is extra space for an American-style fridge freezer. Doors to the rear garden are located at each end of the room.
Further work and storage space is found in the utility, which has fitted worktops with cupboards under, a storage unit with wine rack over and space and plumbing for a washing machine. It also has an adjoining cloakroom with wash hand basin and high-level WC.
Off the dining room is a triple-aspect summer lounge with double doors with side panels opening to the rear patio. It features recently fitted low-level cabinets, mirror-fronted display cabinets and open-shelf units, including a TV recess and downlighting.
At the very end of the entrance hall are two of Sundial’s five bedrooms. Both have built-in storage cupboards and one has an en suite including a shower cubicle, vanity unit with wash basin, WC and circular porthole-style window – ideal for older family members.
The large first-floor landing provides access to the remaining three bedrooms, as well as the “superb” balcony/patio area with low-brick walling and balustrading overlooking the grounds and the village beyond.
Bedroom one benefits from a built-in double wardrobe and vanity unit with drawers under and matching bedside units, a part-sloping ceiling with two skylights, and an en suite featuring a large shower cubicle with two soakers, WC, pedestal wash basin and shelving.
Bedroom two also has a part-sloping ceiling with two skylights and access to the roof space, while bedroom three has a built-in double wardrobe and an en suite with shower cubicle, vanity unit with wash basin, and WC.
Completing the first floor is a family bathroom comprising a WC, freestanding clawfoot bath, pedestal wash basin, heated towel rail and sloping ceiling with skylight.
Outside, a gravelled driveway flanked by brick walling and lighting leads to a turning and parking area, steps to the main house, and the detached double garage, which is fitted with an up and over door, lighting and power.
Stairs in the garage take you up and into an office space featuring a lounge/kitchen area and a bedroom with en suite comprising a bath, WC and pedestal wash basin.
The building offers potential for a variety of uses including a self-contained annexe, a studio, or a home gym with rooms above, according to Bycroft.
Sundial’s gardens are mostly laid to lawn with a plethora of mature shrubs and trees. Surrounding fencing with shrub and flower borders adds extra privacy.
To the rear, there is a large, enclosed garden laid to lawn with a porcelain tile pathway and patio, as well as a timber shed and outside lights.
