Bucknell

Approached from the village green via a private driveway, the property is of timber‑frame construction with a brick plinth and lime‑rendered elevations, complemented by an oak porch and an impressive two and a half bay garage, all contributing to its attractive, characterful appearance.

The front door opens into a generous entrance hallway featuring flagstone flooring throughout the ground floor, an oak staircase, and a useful built‑in storage cupboard. To the left of the hallway is a superb open‑plan kitchen, finished with bespoke duck‑egg blue units, oak worktops and a range cooker with extractor hood. The kitchen is further enhanced by a double butler sink with chrome mixer tap, integrated dishwasher, and a central island providing additional workspace.

The dining area sits at the heart of the room and comfortably accommodates a farmhouse six‑seater table and chairs. Beyond this is a striking, triple‑aspect oak‑framed sunroom with double doors opening onto the garden, flooding the space with natural light.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a well‑appointed utility room, fitted with a large double butler sink, granite worktop, cupboards below, space for a washing machine, tumble dryer and freezer, along with a full‑height built‑in storage cupboard. The utility room also houses the plant room containing the hot water cylinder and provides access to a ground‑floor WC with wash basin, as well as a rear door opening directly into the garden.

To the right of the entrance hallway is a spacious sitting room, featuring a character fireplace with wood‑burning stove and double doors that also open onto the garden, creating excellent flow between indoor and outdoor living.

Stairs rise from the hallway to the first floor, where a conservation rooflight fills the stairwell with natural light. Oak flooring continues throughout the landing and bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys dual‑aspect windows and is served by a dressing room and en‑suite shower room. Two further generously proportioned double bedrooms are complemented by a fourth room, currently used as a home office, featuring a conservation rooflight and suitable as a single bedroom if required.

The family bathroom is beautifully appointed, featuring a claw‑foot freestanding bath, separate shower, wash basin and WC. A loft hatch from the landing provides access to a substantial loft space, offering excellent storage and potential for conversion (subject to the necessary planning permissions and building regulations).

Outside, double doors from both the sunroom and the sitting room open onto a flagstone patio, leading to a flat, low‑maintenance lawn. Despite its central village location, the property enjoys a high degree of privacy thanks to well‑established hedging. The garden also benefits from two timber garden rooms: a smaller one currently used as a playhouse with lean‑to, ideal as a garden store, and a larger, insulated garden room offering excellent flexibility as a home office, studio or gym, plus covered dining area.

To the front of the property is a two and a half bay garage, with external stairs to the western elevation leading to a spacious, self‑contained room above. This versatile space benefits from two conservation rooflights and a shower room with WC and wash basin, currently used as a home gym but offering a range of potential uses. Gravelled parking provides space for up to five vehicles.

The property achieves an impressive EPC Rating of ‘A’, benefitting from excellent insulation, an air‑source heat pump, underfloor heating and solar panels discreetly positioned on the rear of the garage to preserve the character of the setting.

Tastefully decorated in neutral tones throughout, this exceptional home offers flexible, high‑quality accommodation in a private yet central village location.

Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the standard of finish and setting on offer.
