3 bedroom cottage

A beautifully located and well-presented period cottage with parts, we understand, dating from 1860 revealing surprisingly spacious accommodation and a delightful established garden situated on the edge of this picturesque and sought after village.

The property has been greatly improved and enhanced in recent years, revealing character accommodation with modern refinements, gas central heating and double glazed windows.

The ground floor accommodation is primarily approached from the side porch into a dining hall, which opens into a modern and attractively fitted in frame painted kitchen with central peninsula breakfast bar island and quartz worktops, including AEG electric oven, induction hob and extractor hood, together with integrated dishwasher, fridge and freezer. The Kitchen also benefits from a walk-in pantry and two sets of French doors opening out onto the delightful rear garden. Oak flooring extends throughout most of the ground floor including the inner hall, which leads to a utility and w.c. with stone tiled floor and useful laundry cupboard off. To the front is a charming dual aspect sitting room with fireplace and coal effect living flame gas stove.

On the first floor, there are three bedrooms in total. The first double bedroom has fitted wardrobes and fully tiled en-suite with shower, w.c. and wash basin. The second double bedroom at the rear of the property features a vaulted ceiling, dual aspect and also benefits from fitted wardrobes. The third bedroom is a useful single or potential home office. A modern and tasteful appointed family bathroom with stone tiled floor, bath having shower over, w.c., wash basin and heated towel rail completes the first-floor accommodation.

To the outside, a paved and gravelled driveway provides off road parking for up to 3 vehicles and in turn leads to a detached single garage. A feature of the property are undoubtedly the delightful established gardens now readily matured and providing an excellent degree of privacy with lawn, patio areas, well-stocked borders, bushes and shrubs, climbing roses. There is also an outside water tap and E.V. charging point.
