Property description

Believed to be approaching 500 years old, Inglenook Cottage is a truly excellent example of a thatched English country cottage. During the early 2000's the cottage underwent a full renovation/restoration programme which included a total re-thatch. Maintained to the highest of standards and presented in first class order, the cottage offers elegant accommodation which is obvious from your initial entrance into a fine sitting room with inglenook fireplace housing a Jotul woodburner. The ground floor accommodation then flows freely through a study (off which access is gained to a utility room and cloakroom), into a farmhouse style, hand painted kitchen with attractive quarry tiled flooring and granite work surfaces. From the kitchen access leads through to a lovely garden room/dining room which has a vaulted ceiling, Italian travertine flooring, double doors leading to the cottage garden and hand painted bespoke dresser unit which compliments the kitchen.

The first floor offers three bedrooms and a luxurious family bathroom includes a fully tiled wet room, has travertine tiled flooring, under floor heating and hand made oak shutters. Excluding the study and landing windows, the cottage is double glazed with hardwood framed windows and centrally heated via a condensing oil fired boiler to radiators, most of which are concealed behind decorative covers.

To the front of the cottage is off road parking; access to the side leads to a fabulous cottage garden which has been designed, planted and maintained by the current owners. The garden itself is a fusion of classic cottage garden and contemporary design with seating areas, pergola covered pathway, shrubs, herbaceous plants and lawns. In conclusion, a fabulous cottage enjoying a beautiful garden within a tranquil village setting.
