2 bedroom detached house for sale

Sitting back from the tree-lined environs of Thursley Road behind a substantial driveway, the elegant simplicity and charm of Truxford Stream Cottage’s double fronted facade paints an endearingly enchanting picture. Nestled within the greenery of wrap-around gardens that have their own meandering stream, it offers a wonderful opportunity for equestrian families and anyone looking to transform and extend (STNC) a property into their own dream home.

Behind a central gabled entrance a classic flagstone floor stretches out beneath your feet from a charming porch into a generously sized reception room and its adjoining double aspect dining room. With a black timber beam overhead and natural light tumbling in, the inviting reception room has the warming focal point of a wood burner beneath the timber lintel of a large brick fireplace. Its notably wide proportions reach out creating ample chance to have a study area, taking you into a dining room filled with garden views. Recessed cupboards in the reception room supply plenty of storage without encroaching on the space and the easy flow of ground floor connects to a kitchen with a rustic open fireplace of its own. Although well-presented, it’s easy to see how much potential there is to transform this country kitchen into somewhere truly special and allow the fireplace to play an integral part of the space.

Currently home to a washing machine, tumble dryer, fridge and dishwasher, the excellently sized double aspect utility room can be tailored to suit your own needs, and a ground floor bathroom with a vintage suite has an elegant wood panelled bath and traditional pedestal basin.

Tastefully styled, a ground floor bedroom sits tucked away to the rear. Its wonderfully tall skylight lets you stargaze from the comfort of your own bed, while downstairs a cellar is on hand to provide the perfect spot for your wine collection.

With sublime views of the landscape and gardens, a hugely restful main double bedroom sits exclusively on the first floor creating a peaceful escape from the hubbub of a busy day. Its feature alcove, recessed cupboards and timber window lintel add to the charm and character that this cottage has in abundance. It’s good to note that the impressive measurements of the room generate ample chance to add an en suite shower room and currently include a wall of fitted wardrobes.

Outside
Set within a picturesque plot of circa 2.5 acres this period cottage is equally ideal for equestrians and those who love to take a stroll and sit by the water’s edge of their very own stream.

Framed by majestic trees a prodigious paddock blends harmoniously with the surrounding landscape drawing your gaze out to the leafy environs. A duo of stables is close at hand.

However, it is undoubtedly the graceful curves of a gently babbling stream that adds an undeniable romance to beautifully idyllic large gardens. With mature shrubs peppering its banks, it twists and turns its way across extensive lawns that wrap-around to the front of the cottage bordered by a magnificent selection of trees that elevate the sense of tranquillity and seclusion further still.

At the front of the property a considerable private driveway provides a wealth of parking and gives the perfect vantage point to admire the cottage and its blissful setting.
