Property description

Mead Cottage is positioned on a quiet country lane and is a delightful family home. The cottage sits in a 1 1/2 acre plot and has a range of character features together with various outbuildings, carport and generous parking.
We understand the original part of the property dates back to the 1700s with later additions by the current vendors in 2002 which is currently set up as a 1 bedroom annexe. This area could be added back into the main house to create a much larger family home.
The ground floor accommodation features a fantastic dual aspect sitting room with beamed ceilings and a stone inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove. Also on the ground floor is a separate dining room, office/study and a well appointed kitchen with Rayburn.
There are 4 first floor bedrooms all benefitting from garden views. The master bedroom features an en-suite shower room. Completing this floor is a family bathroom that has been finished to a high standard.
The attached self contained annexe, which would be ideal for a dependant relative or holiday letting purposes, is entered from the entrance porch. Situated on the ground floor is a well appointed kitchen, shower room and sitting room. A timber staircase leads to a galleried seating area then into the double bedroom.
There is a generous rear garden of approximately 1.5 acres in size. The garden is mostly laid to lawn with mature borders and a variety of specimen trees and shrubs. There is a workshop measuring 24' x 21' with power. In addition there are also 2 former stables now being used a store sheds. This garden has been lovingly cared for and is a very tranquil place to sit and enjoy alfresco dining.
