Property Description

A rare opportunity has arisen to purchase this beautifully presented home. Steeped in history this Station House which was built in the 1840's was once a central hub of the village and was regularly used by locals to commute by steam train to the local towns or on "seaside specials" and to our knowledge was last used by the final train in 1965.
With many original features the property has been sympathetically adapted by the owners to keep in line with the original charm to create a warm and friendly home.
Set upon a generous plot the grounds that surround the property offer peace and tranquillity and on cold days you can see the outline of the underlying tracks which are still buried beneath the roadway.
The property which offers exemplary living accommodation benefits from high quality fixtures and fittings and has been well cared for by the current owners It has gas central heating.
Entering the property from the front takes you into a spacious welcoming hall from which ground floor rooms can be accessed except for the lounge. The modern fitted kitchen with Rennie Macintosh storage cupboards, Neff integrated appliances and a bespoke design was once the ticketing office. The utility room is separate from the kitchen and gives access to the garden. Bedroom five can be found on the ground floor and is currently adapted to be used as a study and in addition there is a substantial bathroom and separate bathroom and separate WC each with quality Villeroy Bosch fittings. The lounge is accessed through the bright and spacious formal dining room and has a triple aspect over the gardens and surrounding countryside with access through French doors to the garden.
Stairs take you to the first-floor landing where there is a house bathroom with bath and shower and exposed beams and four further bedrooms most overlooking either the garden or rolling hillside views.

The grounds of the property are entered through a five-bar gate along the drive which was once the railway tracks, now laid with gravel. This leads you to the double garage and further gravel for ample off road and private parking.

Delightful gardens and patio surround the property. It has been carefully planned to be low maintenance with fruits trees, vegetable raised beds, lawn, a substantial greenhouse and its very own copse.
