Property description

Taken straight from the Dr Pepper commercial... \"Just try it, you might like it!\" There's no \"might\" about it with this stunning country cottage though; with expansive gardens to the rear of the property with field views stretching to the far distance, you'll be pleasantly surprised once you've let yourself become consumed in this gorgeous character home. There's no escaping the fact it sits close to the road however you would regret ruling this out on first impressions! The beautiful country chic interior offers a wealth of charm and the gardens are simply stunning and made for garden parties! There is a fantastic veranda addition off the breafast kitchen with roof and tiled flooring which, in effect, creates an outdoor reception room, in addition to the living room, dining room and huge breakfast kitchen. Upstairs are three double bedrooms and an uber contemporary bathroom.  There's a surprise too; above the double garage is a modern annexe with living/bedroom space, shower room, storage and is fitted with internet connections so could also work perfectly as a home office or a fourth bedroom for guests. This property offers wonderful possibilities and fully deserves the credit we give it!
