The Property
A painted wooden door opens into a useful entrance porch under a pitched pantile roof which offers space and hanging for boots and coats. Overlooking the front aspect through pretty bay windows, the sitting/dining room boasts some lovely period features with exposed studwork and fireplace with brick surround and tiled hearth housing wood burning stove. A cosy and separate snug area overlooks the rear courtyard garden. The beautiful downstairs bathroom with windows to rear, black & white checked vinyl floor and painted half wood panelled wall, has been refitted by the current owners and comprises contemporary style 3 piece white suite with double-ended bath, WC and matching pedestal washbasin. An attractive kitchen/breakfast room with exposed studwork and windows to front and side aspects is arranged on two levels and offers ample space for refectory table, chairs and dressers. Fitted with an excellent range of painted Shaker style wall, base and drawer units with marble effect worktop, inset stainless steel sink and drainer and tiled splashbacks, the kitchen further comprises range cooker with extractor hood over, integrated larder fridge and space and plumbing for dishwasher. A separate utility room, leads through to the boiler room and incorporates space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble drier. A stable-style door leads into the rear entrance porch and out into the pretty west facing courtyard garden.
Stairs rise from the dining area to an upstairs landing which incorporates an excellent range of inbuilt cupboard storage space with door on right hand side accessing the WC. With pretty views over the Church Green, the master bedroom also benefits from a large walk-in wardrobe as well as en-suite shower room with window to front, shower cubicle with power shower, wash basin and WC. An elegant guest bedroom benefits from en-suite bathroom and two further bedrooms overlook the front aspect and complete the accommodation.
Outside
The Cottage is set back from the road behind painted, cast iron railings and a pretty and well stocked cottage-style front garden. With an established Virginia Creeper and Wysteria adorning the front, the house looks particularly stunning in the early summer and autumn months.
Screened by large double gates, a driveway provides off-road parking for two vehicles and leads to the detached former garage which is currently utilised as a spacious office (19'4 x 16'1) but with garage doors still in place, garage use could very easily be reinstated. To the right of the driveway a step leads up to a fully fenced and enclosed garden, mainly laid to lawn with some well stocked flower and shrub borders. A pretty, west facing courtyard garden offers fabulous seclusion and privacy with a low crinkle crankle wall forming an attractive, raised flower and shrub bed. A willow hurdle cleverly screens the oil tank and a small brick outbuilding under a pantile roof forms a useful wood store.
* Agents' Note: The current vendors have outline planning consent for the erection of a detached single storey dwelling at the end of the current garden (which they will occupy themselves), the new boundaries are marked at the property and our photographs illustrate the area of garden included.
