4 bedroom detached house

Garden Cottage is situated just off the village high street and within easy walking distance of all the village amenities. The property is believed to date from the 18th Century and has been considerably improved by the current owners.

Garden Cottage has a characterful sitting room with a woodburner. The large kitchen/breakfast room, with cellar beneath, and the adjoining open-plan dining room with woodburner, makes for a superb entertaining space; double doors lead outside to the patio area and garden beyond.

Upstairs, there are four good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom has a room-length bank of built-in wardrobes and an ensuite.

Outside there is a large barn, which is currently used for garaging and stores. This has potential for further development, subject to the usual planning consent. The private garden is mainly laid to lawn with well-established flower beds and also a good-sized vegetable patch and greenhouse.

The house would ideally suit a family or those wishing to join an active village community.
