4 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

A 4 bedroom character home at the end of a small development next to Blundells School, with a pretty garden that runs down to the River Lowman.

Tucked away at the end of a quiet and exclusive little development near to Blundells School, Honey Cottage is part of the original farm building that was renovated about 20 years ago. The cottage retains some character features, such as the large inglenook fireplace in the sitting room, but also benefits from the quality renovation work that was undertaken, and now provides a warm and economic to run home.

For me, the 'stand out' feature is the garden which runs down to the River Lowman where you will find your own private shingle 'beach' - a great place for a paddle, or just to sit and relax enjoying the sound of running water as you unwind.

Approaching the house through the front gate, a pretty front garden, hard paved for ease of maintenance, decorated with potted plants and shrubs. A path leads to the side of the house, where you will find a door that leads into the sitting room, but further on, the main front door to the entrance hall. The path then continues to the rear garden.

From the entrance hall, stairs rise to the first floor, and you'll also find the ground floor shower room, with a wc and wash basin. Large slate flagstones run throughout the ground floor, first leading you through the kitchen, which has plenty of space for a dining table and chairs, plenty of storage, and features a gas fired Aga. French doors open to the rear garden.

The sitting room retains the large original fireplace which now has an inset cast iron multi-fuel stove - not really required due to the gas central heating, but a lovely feature nonetheless.

The first floor offers four bedrooms and a bathroom. The master bedroom is a great size, with built in wardrobes and space for a couple of sets of drawers, and a lovely window seat. The second and third bedrooms are also doubles, both looking out and over the garden, and the fourth is a single room. The bathroom offers a bath with a shower above, wash basin and wc.

The rear garden is just lovely. Mature borders are planted with an array of flowering plants and shrubs, the variety of colour drawing your eye down the garden towards the river. A large patio area next to the house provides plenty of space for tables, chairs and sun loungers but sitting next to the river would be my choice!

The vendors comment that they have loved living here for the past 15 years or so, and it is the quiet position, the river, and the wildlife, and the community that they will miss.
