Introduction
The property has been extended over the years, which has now allowed for a highly versatile internal arrangement of rooms, ideally suiting the demands of modern living. The accommodation has the option to be annexed, splitting the living space into two distinct areas, or there is simply a wealth of space to accommodate most families. The house is situated off the main road, with an established front hedge and ample off road parking with access to a sizeable garage, which adds to the wide appeal and practicality of Brookside Cottage. The village offers a variety of amenities and for the commuter there are some excellent links with the M27 and M3 network.

Description
From a covered porch the double glazed door opens into a welcoming entrance hall with doors leading to the principal rooms. The master bedroom has a bay window and a large ensuite shower room and a further double bedroom with bay window benefits from its own private ensuite shower room. There is a snug sitting room with a working fireplace and internal doors through to either a lovely conservatory/hobbies room or a utility/laundry room. From the inner hallway there are doors to a family bathroom, a further double bedroom and an integral garage. The main living space is located at the rear of the property and has a lovely heightened ceiling with triple aspect that allows for an abundance of natural light. The room allows for a flexible arrangement of furniture, with a focal point of a wood burning stove and the sitting area then extends through to a dining area with an open adjoining galley kitchen and separate walk in larder. From the living room, a set of French doors open into a large conservatory which has a pitched glazed panelled roof and a further set of doors accessing the garden.

Outside
The frontage and driveway to the property is secured by an established hedge and five bar gate, giving access onto a wide expanse of block paved parking and access to the garage.

In addition, there is a fabulous home studio, summer house, garden shed and greenhouse with outside taps and electricity/power points. To the other side of the property there is a secluded storage area.
