Built in the late 1800s Magpie Manor retains much of its period charm including stunning high ceilings, beautiful and intricate cornicing and imposing sash windows (some boasting original shutters). It's a truly wonderful family home ideal for modern day living and entertaining with spacious reception rooms and ample bedrooms. You are welcomed into a large and useful porch which leads to the entrance hall. To the left is the formal dining room, a beautiful room for entertaining, featuring a marble fireplace and huge sash window. Across the hallway you will find the impressive double length drawing room. This room is flooded with an abundance of natural light from the stunning bay triple sash window to the front. Double doors enable you to separate this reception room into 2 rooms making it a very versatile space. Both areas feature working fires with marble surrounds and the high ceilings with detailed cornicing create a light and spacious environment. The kitchen/breakfast room is situated at the rear of the house where views of the delightful garden can be enjoyed. The kitchen is fitted with a range of traditional wall and base mounted cabinetry and integrated appliances and there is ample space for a dining area. From the kitchen a large utility room can be found which offers access to the rear garden and to the integral garage. A guest cloakroom completes the accommodation on this floor.

On the first floor you will find 4 spacious double bedrooms all benefitting from built in wardrobes/cupboards and the master benefiting from an en suite shower room.
