Property description
This charming detached cottage is traditionally styled and full of character with timber beams and feature tandem log burner. The property is not listed but thought to date back to the mid-eighteenth century where the original building would have once been two cottages. The property opens into a welcoming entrance hall with a stunning tandem log burner, oak timbers and open staircase to the first floor. Traditional latch doors open through to the kitchen and the two reception rooms. The living room has exposed ceiling timbers and shares the tandem log burner. Down the step through the exposed timber framework is the dining room currently being used as a second sitting room with bay window and door through to the garden. Spanning the rear of the cottage is the large kitchen which is modern but beautifully traditional with a range of fitted units, traditional Butler sink, gas fired AGA and ample dining space. Off the kitchen is a utility room which has access to the modern shower room, and a rear lobby and boot room all with doors opening out to the garden. On the first floor is the master bedroom which has fully fitted wardrobes with sliding doors. There are a further three double bedrooms, two of which have storage and a contemporary family bathroom with lots of storage and hand held shower over bath.
Outside To the front is a gravel driveway and single garage with several areas of parking. There is side access to the triangular shaped garden which has mature trees and shrubs, broken up by gravel and lawn areas with tall boundary hedging giving privacy. A further area of ground leads away from the main house and is accessed from the lane, amounting in all to a third of an acre. The front area provides extra parking with access to a timber workshop and garden store. The remainder has been planted with hedging, mature shrubs and trees which line wide areas of lawn.
