Description
Built in 1910, this cottage has been sympathetically extended and renovated to create a charming and beautiful country home, seamlessly combining modern and original features.
Set in private grounds, extending to around ½ an acre, the property enjoys uninterrupted views over the mature gardens and surrounding countryside, creating a most peaceful setting. This home has been designed and decorated to an exceptional standard, and leaves the lucky buyer with nothing to do, only unpack their bags!
Internally, the generously proportioned living accommodation can be configured to suit most family´s needs. The lounge features a beautiful brick fireplace with wood burning stove and benefits from a separate porch area overlooking the garden. The family room is designed to be versatile in its use and could easily be used as a boot room, studio or part of an annex. Natural light floods the open plan kitchen/living/dining which, combined with the wood burning stove and oil Rayburn, creates a cosy and homely space; undoubtedly the heart of the home. The ground floor is completed by a utility room and a bathroom.
The first floor hosts a luxury shower room, two double bedrooms and a principal suite, the highlight of which is a bright, commodious bedroom, designed to take advantage of the uninterrupted views.
Externally, a sweeping gravelled drive leads to the rear of the property and large parking area. The spacious gardens are laid out in lawns and have been lovingly planted with a selection of ornamental and flowering shrubs, providing a most pleasing backdrop to the property. A summer house, equipped with a multi fuel stove, kitchen area and WC, is an ideal setting for summer entertaining, or just a quiet space to get away from it all! An impressive two storied garage provides a superb workshop or offers the potential to convert into a self-contained annex or incorporate into the property (subject to planning).
Homes of this calibre rarely come onto the market.
