Grade II listed home with annexe & parking in sought-after village
Description
Of rendered elevations beneath a tiled roof, this charming central village home is arranged over two floors and offers thoughtfully designed interiors that combine modern convenience with original character. Listed Grade II as being of historic and architectural interest, the cottage, as the name suggests, is approached through a pair of white gates leading to a parking area and a delightfully secluded courtyard garden beyond.
Approaching from the rear, the entrance hall with stairs to the first floor leads to a cloakroom (with the boiler) and into the impressive dual-aspect kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen area is fitted with a range of base and eye-level units, cupboards, drawers and shelves with inset sink and drainer and a range of Neff appliances including a multifunction oven, combination oven with microwave and grill, and an induction hob. There is also space and plumbing for a washing machine, as well as built-in storage and room at the far end for dining.
The kitchen leads to the surprisingly light and spacious double aspect sitting room with a fireplace at one end fitted with a woodburner. An adjoining study with stable door provides an ideal work-from-home space, with built-in shelving and windows to the side and rear.
On the first floor, there are two access points to the loft and a generous built-in storage cupboard. The principal bedroom is really special, with a vaulted ceiling and double aspect, it also has a fitted wardrobe. There are two further bedrooms, including a double with exposed red brick fireplace and built-in storage, and a dual-aspect third bedroom. The family bathroom comprises a large shower enclosure, W.C., vanity unit with wash basin, heated towel rail, and window to the rear.
A gravelled courtyard behind the gates provides off-road parking whilst a useful detached garage/workshop complete with inspection pit is to one side with light and power, and a versatile guest suite/studio space above, with Velux windows and a shower room. The garden is landscaped with mature planting and provides a tranquil outdoor retreat.
