Overview

Converted from a former village store, The Old Sweet Shop is an attractive detached family home offering 2,713 sq ft of light-filled, flexible accommodation arranged over four floors. Configured to provide a practical and cohesive living and entertaining environment, it sensitively combines modern amenities with period features including two front aspect bow windows, sash glazing, exposed beams and original fireplaces and joinery.

The accommodation flows from a welcoming gable end reception hall with tiled flooring, a front aspect bow window with window seating and an open fireplace. On one side it opens to a dual aspect family room, extending to more than 32 ft in length, with a front aspect bow window and two exposed brick open fireplaces, and on the other to an L-shaped sitting and dining room with an exposed brick fireplace with wood-burner and French doors to the courtyard garden.

Approached from the sitting/dining and family rooms, the good sized, vaulted triple aspect kitchen has quarry-tiled flooring, a range of wall and base units, a central island with breakfast bar, Belfast sink, modern integrated appliances and doors to the rear terrace. A further door opens to a vaulted study/gym with French doors to the terrace. The property also benefits from generous cellarage, suitable for a variety of uses.

Stairs rise from the family room to the upper floors. On the first floor the property provides a principal bedroom with fitted storage and Jack and Jill access to the family bathroom, two further double bedrooms, a modern family shower room and a family bathroom with freestanding bath.

The property’s two remaining double bedrooms are found on the part-vaulted second floor, one having double doors to a large wood-lined dressing room with two walk-in stores.

This property has 0.38 acres of land.
