Introduction
The cottage ‘Samphia‘ has been thoughtfully designed by the current owners to incorporate a wealth of wonderful features. Built only 7 years ago and benefitting from remaining NHBC warranty, the interior is of a light and airy nature, taking full advantage of daylight with windows to all four aspects, whilst the practical configuration meets with the demands of modern living. An overall wonderful property that takes advantage of this desired location, suiting family buyers, commuters, downsizers and second home owners alike.

Description
Samphia is approached from a shared private driveway, whereby you will have a right of access to a gravelled area of off road parking immediately adjacent to the front door. From a covered porch a part double glazed front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall which has an open lobby area, with access to the sitting room. The hallway leads to the rear of the house with doors to a cloakroom/WC, an understairs cupboard and small study area. The sitting room enjoys a double aspect with a wide bay window to the front aspect and there is also a working fireplace with the potential for an open fire or installation of wood burner. Double panel glazed doors open into the superb open plan kitchen/dining/family room, which essentially forms the ‘hub‘ of the house, with space for a good size dining table and chairs, and even a casual sofa. The flooring, akin to the hallway is of rich looking oak style laminate that flows through to the adjoining utility. The kitchen itself is fitted with a stylish comprehensive range of matching wall and base units and integrated appliances which include a dishwasher, double electric oven with electric hob, vented extractor hood and a fridge/freezer. The remaining space is dedicated to a wealth of useful storage. The kitchen also enjoys a double aspect and a view across the rear garden. The utility room has a matching range of fitted units with space/plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. This room also gives a practical access to the rear garden.

From an imposing first floor galleried landing, there is access into the available loft space, bedrooms and family bathroom. The main bedroom, with a view across the rear garden, incorporates a dressing area and has an ensuite shower room. The second double bedroom has lovely far reaching views across the village, whilst the third bedroom has a tall Velux side window and vaulted ceiling. The family bathroom is fitted with a bath with mains fed shower over.

Overall, the interior has an impressive amount of space, with an attractive contemporary feel and quality of finish that will appeal to the most discerning of buyers.

Outside
There is an area of off road parking directly to the front of Samphia that accommodates at least two vehicles, with a side gated access running alongside the property which has sufficient space for some general storage, linking through to the rear garden which incorporates a paved patio, raised lawn, decked seating area and flower/shrub borders. All of which is enclosed by a secure boundary fence.

Agents Notes
The property is connected to mains drainage, mains electricity and water. The heating system and boiler are oil fed, with an oil tank located within the rear garden.
