'...A Tranquil Oasis Steeped In History And Charm...'
Welcome to this enchanting detached Grade II thatched cottage, a picturesque retreat offering a harmonious blend of space, character, and charm. Beautifully restored to showcase its 16th-century origins, this former blacksmith's cottage is set on a generous and private plot of approximately an acre.
A Glimpse into HistoryAs you approach, the cottage’s traditional timber frame and rendered elevations with exposed internal timbers immediately captivate. Thoughtfully expanded over the years, this home now perfectly balances its historic charm with modern comforts, making it an ideal family sanctuary.
Charming and Spacious InteriorsUpon entering, the sizeable entrance porch sets the tone for the charm within. The property features two large reception rooms, each brimming with character. The dining room boasts a wonderful fireplace, dual aspect windows, a storage cupboard, and direct access to the patio and garden. The main sitting room enchants with a beautiful brick fireplace and log burner, dual aspect views, and double doors leading to the rear. A staircase from here leads to two of the three bedrooms.
Delightful Country KitchenThe heart of the home, the country-style kitchen, is equipped with a five-burner Rangemaster oven, butler sink, integrated fridge/freezer, and dishwasher. From the kitchen, another staircase leads to the third bedroom. A back entrance porch with storage flows into a modern family bathroom. This luxurious space, part of a more recent extension, features underfloor heating, a Bluetooth mirror, stunning tiles and stone, a large walk-in rainfall shower, a stand-alone bathtub, sink, and toilet.
Three Beautiful BedroomsThe three double bedrooms, each accessed via separate staircases, are full of character with exposed beams. The principal bedroom sits centrally and includes a handy w/c. Bedroom two, with garden views, offers ample storage. Bedroom three, accessible via the kitchen staircase, also provides excellent storage and maintains the cottage’s charming character.
Expansive and Private GroundsOutside, the property continues to impress. Gated access leads to a large shingle driveway and expansive lawn areas, flanked by mature trees and hedging. The rear of the property features a sizable garage measuring 27'6" x 13'4", ideal for car enthusiasts, with an adjoining storeroom perfect for a wine cellar. A generous utility room includes worktops, a sink drainer unit, toilet, washing machine connections, and additional appliance space.
Additional Outbuildings and GardensThe charm extends to the outbuildings, including a separate cart lodge with an attached workshop, a potting shed, a greenhouse, and a summerhouse nestled in a private corner. The extensive gardens offer social patio spaces, vegetable and plant beds, and more lush lawn areas, creating a serene outdoor living experience.
