Find Out A Little More.... - The Heights is a brick-and-pantile house constructed in the early 1990s and subsequently comprehensively upgraded. Energy efficiency has been given particular consideration, with a ground source heat pump and solar energy system forming part of the specification, providing efficient heating and on-site renewable energy.

The open-plan kitchen/breakfast room forms the heart of the home, providing a generous space for everyday family life. Double aspect, with a door opening directly onto the rear garden, the room is fitted with a peninsula island incorporating a breakfast bar, granite work surfaces, Bosch gas hob and extractor, integrated Bosch ovens and SMEG appliances. A large adjoining utility room provides additional practical space and incorporates a separate wet room/wc.

Glazed double doors lead into the dining room with an outlook over the garden, while the sitting room spans the depth of the house. A wood-burning stove creates a natural focal point and a large sliding door opens directly onto the patio, connecting the principal living space with the rear garden.

The entrance hall features a double-height ceiling, arched window and handsome turning staircase, which has open treads and a glass balustrade.

Four generous double bedrooms are arranged either side of the first-floor landing, three with fitted wardrobes. Two are bedroom suites incorporating a dressing room, bathroom and eaves storage. The en suite bathrooms are fitted with quality sanitaryware and Amtico flooring, and the large house bathroom is similarly finished and includes both a bath and separate shower.

Outside - Timber gates open to a generous parking and turning area that sweeps in front of the integral double garage with electric roller door and car port with EV charger. Behind a secure side gate is a garden shed and log store.

The north-western boundary is formed by a grassy bank planted with buddleia and screened by a mature evergreen laurel hedge, creating an effective buffer from the country road. In front of this is an expansive area of lawn, edged by established borders with a circular brick-edged patio, accessed directly from the sitting room.

At the front of the property, the landscaped garden has been thoughtfully designed for relaxed outdoor living and privacy. Curving gravel pathways weave through areas of lawn, with flowering perennials along the boundaries and raised beds planted with ornamental grasses, creating a naturalistic yet well-structured setting with interest throughout the seasons.

At the heart of the garden is an elevated timber-framed pavilion, approached beneath a rose-covered arbour and framed by climbing plants. It provides an attractive al fresco dining terrace and a sheltered place from which to enjoy the garden.

A detached cedar-clad garden studio is a versatile, ancillary living space, suitable for use as a home office, gym or creative retreat. Extending to 277 sq ft, the studio is insulated and fitted with double-glazed windows, electric heaters, power, lighting and an internet connection. Bifold doors open wide onto the paved terrace with views across the garden.

Paddock & Outbuildings - Opposite the house, on the other side of Kraig Lane, lies the enclosed paddock extending to approximately 0.8 acres. It is accessed through a five-bar gate and provides a valuable area for family recreation.

An irrigation system drains into a wildlife pond, which has been planted and landscaped with a seating area and sheltering yew hedge. Young planting along the eastern corner of the paddock is becoming established as a shelterbelt. There is also an established orchard containing a variety of fruit trees, together with a fruit cage and vegetable patch, creating a productive extension to the garden.

The outbuildings have recently been re-roofed in metal.

The detached stable block with railed yard comprises four loose boxes and is currently used for storage. It offers considerable flexibility for future use.

A further barn, together with adjoining workshop, store and greenhouse, is positioned within a secure, enclosed gravelled compound. The compound has a water supply and is accessed through secure gates. Attached to the open barn is a store and secure workshop, both with power and lighting.
