Full Description
Offering an ideal location for the convenient proximity to the village centre and train station, as well as easy access onto Effingham Common, this character family home benefits from having recently been extended to add a contemporary style Kitchen/Family/Diner on the rear.

The wide and welcoming entrance hallway has an attractive staircase and a clear view of the garden via the floor to ceiling glass sliding doors on the rear. The newly created space provides that sought after open plan social area ideal for eating, cooking and relaxing framed by the backdrop of an attractive landscaped patio area with the lawn stretching beyond. For quieter moments, the two further reception rooms are well proportioned, both with fireplaces. Family country living practicality is provided by the side door access to the functional boot room and utility.
Upstairs, the bedrooms lead from a square, galleried landing overlooking the hallway below. The master bedroom has a large walk-through dressing room with a generous en-suite. The three further bedrooms are all doubles, one with an ensuite shower room and two having use of the family bathroom.
