The Property
Porch & Entrance Hall – Passing through the double doors of the storm porch laid with tile flooring, you arrive at the heart of the home. The cottage’s history and character are immediately visible in the beams and forged latch handle doors within the square entrance hall that has a convenient under-stairs cupboard.
Sitting Room – The sitting room exudes character with its charming beams, picture window, and a wood burner nestled within a striking stone inglenook fireplace, complete with an original bread oven.
Garden Room – Sliding glass doors connect to the south-west facing garden room, featuring tile flooring, enhanced by electric underfloor heating. An abundance of natural light fills the adjacent rooms, creating a serene retreat. Brand new double doors seamlessly open to the garden, leading to a sun deck, perfect for entertaining.
Dining Room – Contemporary open-plan area situated between the garden room and kitchen, harmoniously sharing the light-coloured tiled flooring and warmth of underfloor heating. Natural light floods through the space from the garden room and a large skylight overhead.
Kitchen – Thoughtfully laid out with generous worktop space, the kitchen comes fitted in a range of light grey gloss cupboard units complemented by quartz countertops, with integral appliances including Neff ‘slide ‘n’ hide’ fan-assisted oven, induction hob, and sink with drainer. There is also under-unit space for a dishwasher. Tiled flooring completes the space, with electric underfloor heating beneath.
Boot Room & Utility – A highly useful rear entrance off the kitchen, with half-glazed French doors opening outside, makes the perfect boot room. The Utility, which has fitted units, a sink with drainer, and plumbing for a washing machine, houses the modern Worcester oil-fired boiler.
Bedroom 3/Study – Enjoying picture window views across the front lawn, this carpeted downstairs double bedroom is a gloriously sunny and could be utilised in several ways, including a dedicated study or second reception room. This room also knits the downstairs together, connecting the kitchen and entrance hall, creating an open flow. Adjacent lies the ensuite wet room, which is part of the recent extension and includes a walk-in electric shower, WC, hand wash basin, chrome towel radiator, and sensor light.
Bedroom 1 with Dressing Room – Moving to the newly-carpeted upstairs, the initial double bedroom is graced with a vaulted ceiling and showcases a delightful gable end adorned with exposed beams. Part of the new extension, the room beyond could be utilised as a dressing room, study or nursery, or returned to an ensuite.
Bedroom 2 – The generous second double bedroom also enjoys captivating garden views, while its vaulted ceiling and numerous beams create a sense of space and history.
Family Bathroom – Offers a classic white suite, including bath with thermostatic shower & wall panel, WC with concealed cistern, basin with chrome mixer tap & cupboard storage beneath and wall-mounted towel radiator.
Outside
The wrap-around, well-established gardens offer a mix of lawns, cottage borders, a wildflower garden, raised sleeper vegetable beds, with a sun-dappled deck and pebbled paths. It is a paradise for gardeners and bird-watchers alike. Two sheds are nestled within the grounds - ideally suited for storing tools. The detached garage is located at the apex of the driveway and includes power, ev charging point, lighting & a rolling door, while the drive itself is secured by a 5-bar gate, with copious parking. Notable additions attached to the house include outside taps at the front & rear, sensor outside lighting at the front, rear & garage, and three water butts. The roadside verge has been remodelled and is delightfully graced by shrubbery, seasonal planting and hedging. An environmentally friendly sewage treatment plant with soakaway was installed in 2024.
