Wreake Inn Cottage is a beautifully appointed Grade II listed detached home of immense character retaining original features in a contemporary style. Formerly two cottages, it extends to 2,400 sq ft, with an additional oversized garage and further storage over. Lying within this unspoilt Wreake Valley conservation village, the cottage retains heavily beamed ceilings, Yorkshire sliding sash windows and an inglenook fireplace. A high vaulted room houses a stunning contemporary Mark Wilkinson kitchen featuring a range of bespoke Farrow and Ball hand painted cabinets with granite worktops, matching island and integrated appliances. The kitchen has exposed roof trusses and views over open countryside. Off the kitchen is a walk-in pantry and utility room with bespoke cabinets by Anthony Appleton. Leading down from the kitchen a snug leads to a cosy sitting room. A rear hall with steps down leads to a study or potential fourth bedroom, large drawing room and cloakroom. The first floor accommodation is accessed by two separate staircases from the ground floor. There are three double bedrooms, one with an en-suite and a dressing room and a further bathroom. The property enjoys a plot extending to approximately 0.3 acre. To the side of the cottage, double gates open onto a sweeping gravelled driveway with hard standing for several vehicles and giving access to an sizeable detached double garage with potential to be a separate annex. The rear of the property has a fully landscaped garden which includes a private seating area, interspersed with planting. The remainder of the garden is mainly laid to lawn with pathways winding through it, rockeries, mature trees and countryside views.
