3 bedroom village house

Mallard Cottage is an attractive double fronted house built in 2004 using Bath and Cotswold stone with a slate roof.

The cottage features immaculately presented accommodation arranged over two floors, with a high specification contemporary finish. To the right of the light and airy entrance hall is the triple aspect living room, and to the left is the open plan kitchen/dining/garden room which offers excellent modern family living space. Sliding doors leads out to a terrace, which is perfect for al fresco dining and entertaining. Also on this floor is a utility room and cloakroom.

On the first floor is the principal bedroom with en suite bathroom, two further double bedrooms and a bathroom.

The cottage is approached onto a private driveway where there is parking for a few vehicles, in addition to the garage. There is additional parking on the lane by the property, and on the land opposite if required.

There are pretty gardens which wrap around the side and rear of the cottage, mainly laid to lawn with mature borders.

There is the unique feature of a parcel of land positioned opposite the cottage with vehicular access, this offers a wonderful lifestyle element that could be used for a variety of purposes, and makes Mallard Cottage very special.

A gate leads through to a charming garden featuring a summerhouse with woodburner. Beyond this is a magical space comprising large level grassed areas, mature trees, wild flowers and a pond. There is a BBQ area which is perfect for summer parties; and a zip wire, rope bridge and treehouse which are fantastic features for children, in addition to ball games, den building and exploring.

The southern edge of the land is bordered by an embankment which forms part of an SSSI comprising glacial gravel deposits dating back to the last ice age and which extends into adjacent land to the south. This limits but does not exclude, development on the remainder of the land for sale, beyond it's present use.

In all approximately 2.23 acres. EPC: C.
