History
Blue Boar Cottage was built around 1740 and is situated within the conservation area of this attractive village. The vaulted brick cellar dates back to the cottage's origins as a public house and at one time is believed to have been used as a village shop.

Ground Floor
The property is entered via a wide timber door into an impressive double height entrance hall with open staircase, exposed roof timbers and quarry tiled floor. The sitting room is spacious and enjoys views over the village green and features a large log burning stove set within an exposed brick chimney breast. Central to the ground floor accommodation is a large breakfast kitchen with heavily beamed ceiling, multi fuel burning stove, range of fitted cabinets and appliances that include an electric oven and gas hob. Off the kitchen is a rear lobby with access into the garden and a cloakroom/WC. From the kitchen three steps lead down to the dining room with exposed ceiling beams and log burning stove. To the rear of the property is a large family room with French doors opening onto the rear garden, part vaulted ceiling and a gas flame effect stove set within a reclaimed brick surround. Double doors lead into the garden room with high vaulted ceiling, large fully glazed roof light and stunning views over the rear gardens.

First Floor
A spacious landing with useful storage cupboards provides access to four bedrooms. The master bedroom has a vaulted ceiling with exposed truss and a luxury en suite with double shower and twin wash hand basins. The family bathroom is fitted with a white four piece suite.

Outside
To the front of the property is a low maintenance garden with double gates that provide wide access to the rear gardens and a double width flagstone driveway that provides hard standing for two vehicles. Arriving at the cottage on foot a low wooden gate opens to a brick pathway that leads to the front door. To the rear of the property are largely walled, south west facing gardens that offer a good degree of privacy. The gardens are made up of a central lawn, deep planted borders and large split level terrace. To the rear of the garden is a further hidden brick paved terrace and useful block and tile garden store.

Detached Double Garage
The garage is oversized and of cavity wall construction. It has its own electricity and water supply and offers potential for annexe conversion (subject to the relevant approvals). The garage has twin hinged opening doors, personal door to side and window to rear. A drop down ladder gives access to a large room over that has two rear facing Velux windows and window to side.
