A beautifully presented stone built semi-detached cottage, situated in the heart of this thriving and highly sought after village. The Green has been lovingly restored and extended by the current owners with clever remodelling of the internal space and thoughtful decoration throughout. Many original features remain, including exposed stonework, beams, flagstone floors, original fireplaces and a wonderful Elm staircase to the first floor. You enter the property into a boot room with bench and ample storage for coats and boots, tiled floor and exposed stone archway divide another door to the formal entrance hall, door to downstairs WC and utility cupboard - off here a sliding stable door opens on to the magnificent hand-built Shaker style kitchen, a range of base units with inset double butler sink and window overlooking the garden and serving hatch to the deck area outside. This is nicely complimented with quartz worktop and splashback, wall mounted display shelves and electric Aga. The kitchen island provides ample seating for intimate suppers or breakfast. The kitchen opens onto the dining room and snug, with windows to the side and French doors to the rear to the private dining terrace in the garden. The snug has an open fireplace and flagstone floors, which carry through to the formal reception at the front of the house with period working fireplace. Throughout the ground floor there are various storage cupboards and all rooms have very good ceiling height. The first floor provides three double bedrooms and shower room (there is current planning permission to extend to create another bathroom/bedroom). There is gravel parking for three cars to the front of the property. A side gate leads to the rear garden with the brook alongside, which is mainly laid to lawn with a newly fitted shepherds hut (currently used as an office). Directly off the kitchen is a wonderful and private outside dining area. The outside dining area backs onto the stone outbuilding which is currently used as a study/reception room and has its own WC and shower. At the end of the garden there is also a stone outbuilding which has yet to be converted. There is current planning permission for a first-floor extension over the current dining area, for use as a further bedroom/bathroom.
