Pyckle Cottage is a stunning character property exuding charm from the moment you step inside. It features a magnificent kitchen and family area, two generous reception rooms, a study, and four bedrooms, including one en-suite and a Jack and Jill family bathroom.

The cottage is set within half an acre of beautifully landscaped gardens, complete with an orchard, a meandering stream, and wonderful countryside views over neighbouring land. Offered with no onward chain.

Pyckle Cottage is a delightful character property situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering a tranquil and enviable position with few neighbours, surrounded by stunning countryside. The exterior exudes kerb appeal, with mature greenery providing a natural screen from the lane.

Upon entering, the vaulted entrance hall immediately sets the tone for the rest of the home, with charming character features visible from the outset. A cloakroom that doubles as a utility area is conveniently located off the hall.

Beyond lies the elegant dining hall, seamlessly open to the stunning bespoke kitchen. Recently upgraded with a boiling water tap and smart oven, the kitchen masterfully blends modern convenience with traditional charm. The white granite work surfaces complement the grey cabinetry, and the sink is perfectly positioned under the window, framing lovely views of the garden. The adjacent family area, with its impressive bifold doors and corner glazing, offers breathtaking views across the garden and fields, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor spaces during the summer months.

The spacious sitting room, bathed in natural light, boasts a striking red brick feature wall with a wood-burning stove. Additionally, the study provides an ideal work-from home space, with French doors leading to the garden.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a serene retreat, complete with an en-suite bathroom that has underfloor heating. Three additional double bedrooms offer ample space for family and guests, while a spacious Jack and Jill family bathroom features both a separate shower and a luxurious slipper bath.

Outside - The gardens and grounds amounting to just over half an acre wrap around the property, providing a high level of privacy in the garden and creating a tranquil haven for relaxation. A picturesque stream meanders along the edge, with further garden space extending beyond. The orchard, with its diverse selection of fruit trees, is nestled within the level lawned gardens. There is ample off-road parking to the front and side, conveniently positioned in front of the double garage. Behind the garage, The Foreman Arms', a former outbuilding now transformed into a home pub, is equipped with all the amenities needed for entertaining.

A large deck in front of The Foreman Arms is perfect for social gatherings or simply enjoying the stunning views with your favourite drink in hand. For cooler evenings, a cosy seating area offers ample space for a fire pit or hot tub. A public footpath just outside the property boundaries provides wonderful walks, practically on your doorstep.
