Accommodation Summary

Entrance hall, Open plan Kitchen/Diner, Lounge, Conservatory, Two Bedrooms and Bathroom.

Accommodation

The current layout of the property works very well with the bedroom accommodation peacefully positioned to the front of the cottage whilst the living areas extend to the rear with views and direct access to the gardens. Both bedrooms have lovely traditional features including deep sill recessed windows, ceiling beams and an ornate fireplace. Just off the entrance hall is the well-appointed bathroom with white suite and tiled walls.

A step at the rear of the hallway extends up to the living accommodation towards the rear. The open plan kitchen/diner has a lovely garden aspect and offers a great space for entertaining. With external access off the car port at the side, the kitchen would benefit from upgrading but offers plenty of space and scope for a purchaser to transform this into an impressive ‘live in’ kitchen, Opening off the dining room is the particularly sunny lounge with feature fireplace, and in turn connects to the glazed conservatory- designed to make the most of the garden aspect and with French doors giving a direct connection.

External

The walled gardens extend largely to the side and rear of the cottage. Enjoying absolute privacy, they currently comprise mainly of lawn; with lots of opportunities for further landscaping the outside areas are a dream for those keen on gardening or seeking to create a fantastic family friendly environment. For those in search of the ‘good life’ there is plenty of space for vegetable plots if desired and perhaps even to keep chickens.

A private driveway extends to the cottage with space in front of the property for parking in addition to a car port at the side. An external utility/store area adjoins the car port and a garden shed provides additional storage.
