Full Description: Occupying a plot of approximately 0.50 of an acre, Earls Croft is a delightful period property which has been thoughtfully extended in the past and now provides a family home of considerable character which is well suited to modern lifestyles. The property still has plenty of potential for further extension and alteration and enjoys a pleasant location within this desirable village, with impressive views to the rear over open paddocks. A practical lobby has a brick floor and hanging space, and a glazed door accesses the charming family room/reception hall, which has a dual aspect and views to the garden. There are exposed beams to the walls, an attractive red brick fireplace which provides a focal point, open studs to the stairwell, and a door to the sitting room and square arch to the dining room. The sitting room is particularly impressive and has French doors to the rear terrace and garden, making it ideal for entertaining, an attractive carved stone fire surround and views to the front. The dining room is adjacent to the kitchen, and has exposed studs to the walls, oak flooring, an attractive fireplace with a wood burning stove on a brick hearth, a dual aspect and open studwork through to the kitchen. This is fitted in a 'country style' with handmade painted units including a dresser style unit and oak butcher's block worktops, tiled splashbacks, a 'Rangemaster' cooker with extractor above, a one and a half bowl ceramic sink, a larder cupboard, plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher, oil fired boiler, and a door to the rear terrace. The first floor is equally charming, with an attractive split-level landing which has exposed studs, a part vaulted ceiling, linen cupboard and a Velux window. The principal suite is situated in the more recent addition and has French doors to a roof balcony with fabulous views and ornate wrought iron railings. This has recently been re-decked. The ceiling is part vaulted and there are a range of built-in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room with a decorative three-piece suite with a high-level cistern and ornate pedestal wash basin. There are two further bedrooms both of which have part vaulted ceilings, and one with beams to the ceilings and a dual aspect. These two rooms are served by a spacious and lavishly appointed family bath/shower room with exposed floor boards, a free standing roll top claw foot bath, large walk-in shower cubicle, and views to the garden.

There are herbaceous borders to the front and side, and low maintenance slate chipped areas either side of the front door. Rear access is afforded on both sides of the property.The rear garden is stunning and benefits from a southerly aspect enabling it to take advantage of the all-day sun.

The sides of the garden have well established beds which provide year-round colour and interest and a variety of trees to include silver birch. There are large expanses of lawn and mature evergreens, beyond which is a large area of lawn with post and rail fencing and mature hedging, which provides huge scope, and a wonderful recreation area for a large family.
