It has a relaxed, sociable feel and plenty of storage, while the adjoining back porch gives practical access to the rear gardens.
Beyond this, a further versatile room has served as a gym and children’s playroom over the years, but could also work well as an annex-style space thanks to its shower area and access to the garage. If you’re looking to run a business from home, from dog grooming to beautician work, this space becomes even more attractive. Finally to the ground floor is a separate utility room and downstairs cloakroom off the hallway which add to the practicality.
A bright and airy stairway leads to the first floor thanks to a larger-than-average window drawing in plenty of natural light. The principal bedroom enjoys views over the rear garden and village beyond, and is complemented by its own dressing area and en-suite shower room. Bedroom two is equally impressive, offering a flexible layout with the bedroom area leading to a dressing area, snug or ‘cave space’, which along with its own en-suite makes it ideal for an older child, teenager or guest suite. Two further double bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom with a fabulous freestanding pedestal bath giving the first floor a layout that works brilliantly for growing families.
Outside, the gardens are a real feature. The large front garden wraps around to the rear of the plot and has been designed to offer privacy, seclusion and plenty of usable outdoor space. With paved patio areas for entertaining and dining, established borders, mature trees and gated side access, it is a setting that feels peaceful and private throughout the seasons.
In all, Cherrywood House is a home that offers far more than square footage alone. Its flexible layout gives buyers the freedom to shape the space around their lifestyle, whether that means creating a self-contained area for guests or extended family, a dedicated work-from-home setup, or a practical base for a home business such as beauty, grooming, consulting or studio use, subject to any necessary consents. Combined with private wrap-around gardens, generous parking, a double garage and a well-connected village setting, this is a property that can grow and adapt with you for years to come.
