Property description

THE PROPERTY The Old Laundry is a handsome natural stone and stone tiled double fronted detached Period family sized cottage, probably dating back some 250 years or more and enjoying a pleasant setting set back from the road on the north eastern side of this popular village.



The accommodation consists of a spacious open plan lounge/dining room with attractive oak stripped floor and Inglenook fireplace housing a wood burner. The kitchen/dining room is a perfect place for eating most meals with a comprehensive range of base and wall units together with an oil fired Aga range and separate oil fired central heating boiler. A rear hall has the staircase to the landing, and a good sized family bathroom with a modern white suite including a separate shower cubicle having a Matki thermostatic shower feature.



At the first floor level there are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, one with a sink and built-in cupboard. A charming large single bedroom with vaulted ceiling and roof lights to either side - sure to be a favourite with children! There is a large linen cupboard and storage room by another staircase that leads to the second floor/master bedroom, which is a generously proportioned room with an en-suite cloakroom at one end and fitted double wardrobe and cupboards to the other.



A particular feature of The Old Laundry is its large walled rear garden which begins after a delightful flagstone paved patio accessed via a stable door from the kitchen/dining room and a delightful spot for al fresco meals and barbecues. The lawn extends to a driveway and detached garage at the far end and there are a number of mature trees and shrubs within its confines.



The property is available with no onward chain and an early appointment to view is strongly recommended.
