Place to Pause
Stepping through the front door, the first impression is one of light and space. The porch is bright and welcoming, finished with LVT flooring and a large window that draws daylight in from first dawn. There is space to hang coats, store walking boots, and pause before the day begins or ends. Glass and oak-style doors open through to the main house, allowing the light to travel naturally into the heart of the home.

The lounge sets the scene for the home, with the staircase rising to the right and the living space flowing off to the left. A large bay window frames uninterrupted views across the surrounding countryside and Peel Tower beyond, filling the room with natural light. At its centre, a Portuguese stone fireplace with a log-burning stove creates a natural focal point, offering warmth and atmosphere through the colder months. Traditional radiators, neutral decoration, and thoughtful proportions give this room plenty of opportunity whilst offering immediate relaxation into family life.

Beyond the lounge, the home opens out into an expansive kitchen and dining space where everyday living and entertaining come together effortlessly. Oak flooring runs throughout, grounding the room and adding warmth to the neutral palette. Shaker-style cabinetry wraps around the kitchen space, combining base and wall units with integrated appliances including fridge, freezer, dishwasher, electric oven and microwave. A central island sits confidently at the heart of the room, housing an induction hob with a sleek extractor built neatly into the ceiling above. Feature nooks and subtle lighting add depth and character to the social area, while the scale of the room allows space for family dining or weekend gatherings.
From here, the home continues to unfold into the garden room, a light-filled extension that draws the outside in. Tiled flooring and a bold designer radiator add contrast, while full-width bi-folding doors stretch across the rear of the property, opening directly onto the patio. This space feels wonderfully adaptable, equally suited to relaxed mornings, family meals, or long summer evenings spent with the doors open to nature.
Beyond, a tucked-away additional nook currently serves as a home office, complete with a downstairs WC finished with tiled flooring, sink and toilet. From here, there is also direct access to the garage, adding a practical layer to the layout.

Ascend the staircase, and the sense of light continues on the landing, where a window draws daylight across the upper floor. To the left lies the principal suite, a generous and restful space with a full range of sliding wardrobes and a large window overlooking fields where sheep graze quietly beyond the garden. The en-suite bathroom feels calm and indulgent, with oversized pale grey tiles running across both floors and walls. A sunken bath, walk-in shower, hand basin, low-level WC and designer radiator create a space designed for unhurried mornings and peaceful evenings.

Back on the landing, the family bathroom sits to the right, fully tiled in oversized cream tones. A walk-in shower, separate bath, hand wash basin, low-level WC and chrome heated towel rail ensure the room works effortlessly for family life while retaining a sense of space and calm.
Bedroom three follows next, finished in the same soft carpet and neutral tones that run throughout the upper floor. Fitted desks line one wall, with a full range of wardrobes facing the entrance, making the room ideal as a bedroom, workspace, or walk-in dressing room.
Adjacent, bedroom two is a large double room filled with light from a large window overlooking the countryside. Neutral décor and generous proportions create an easy sense of comfort, while the addition of its own en-suite elevates the space further. The en-suite features a walk-in shower with drench head, hand wash basin with storage beneath, WC, and oversized tiles in cream and pale grey that mirror the calm finish found elsewhere in the home.

From the main landing, a further staircase leads to the second-floor room, a space that feels quietly special. Velux windows draw in light from above, while extensive eaves storage lines both sides of the room. Desk space sits neatly beneath a window, with additional wardrobes and drawers tucked away under spotlights. A further window opens the room out to expansive views across countryside, fields and woodland, creating a sense of escape and possibility.

Stepping outside, the rear garden offers a calm and low-maintenance setting, thoughtfully designed to maximise enjoyment. A large patio provides space for outdoor seating and dining, bordered by a low wall and extended wooden fencing that ensures privacy without interrupting the open feel.
