The Shealing stands as an impressive, detached village residence, constructed in 2006 to meet the exacting preferences of its current owner. Its appealing façade showcases elevations crafted from mellow stone, complemented by a clay pantile roof.

The internal accommodation is accessed via a useful entrance porch that leads to a welcoming reception hall, from which the expansive principal living spaces flow. A comfortable sitting room with timber fire surround and living flame electric fire is flooded with natural light from the adjoining garden room with stone-flagged flooring and French doors that provide direct access to the terrace and gardens.

The breakfast kitchen is equipped with a range of fitted cabinetry and integrated AEG hob, oven, and microwave. Adjacent is a convenient utility room boasting fitted base and wall units and ample space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, complemented by a useful WC. Adding to the allure of the ground floor is a double aspect dining room, offering delightful views over the gardens and grounds. A spacious ground floor bedroom, complete with a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom/wet room features white sanitary ware, vanity unit and heated towel rail. Completing the ground floor amenities is a functional home office enhanced with fitted shelving.

A wide oak staircase leads to the first floor, where an impressive galleried landing sets the stage for two generous double bedrooms offering open views of the gardens and grounds. A well-appointed house bathroom with white sanitary ware and a heated towel rail adds to the first-floor appeal, while a box room opens to extensive eaves storage. The potential of this lovely home is further highlighted by the opportunity to extend and modify - subject to the necessary planning consents.

GARDENS AND GROUNDS

The mature and established gardens and grounds complement the house perfectly, with generous gardens mainly laid to lawn. Attached to the property is a large integral double garage which could, with the necessary planning consents, be incorporated into the main dwelling. The Shealing is perfect for those with equestrian requirements, presenting a rare opportunity, with a pathway leading directly from the principal garden to stabling equipped with two purpose-built loose boxes, a feed room/tack room with electricity and water connections. The total acreage encompasses approximately 3 acres (1.21 hectares), comprising three grass paddocks predominantly flat and enclosed with a mix of post and rail and border hedge fencing, two of which have available water access.
