The second reception room also boasts a charming fireplace with woodburner and a feature bay window providing an outlook into the gardens. The kitchen is located to the rear of the cottage and features an integrated oven and hob with a stable door leading into the rear patio and seating area. A ground floor wet room completes the ground floor accommodation.

On the first floor there is built in storage and the two bedrooms both feature charming fireplaces and the first-floor bathroom provides further convenience.

The cottage also benefits from mains services and gas central heating.

on the far right hand boundary the property offers driveway parking for up to three cars. There is a detached outbuilding, measuring an impressive 18'7 x 14'5 with lighting which could be converted and utilised for a variety of uses such as a home office, studio or gym.

The overall plot extends to just under quarter of an acre and features lots of ornamental trees and shrubs as well as a large expanse of lawn to the side of the cottage with a further elevated lawn area along the rear boundary.
