About this property

Situated in the pretty ribbon village of Chartridge, a fantastic opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented 17th century Grade II listed cottage with exciting potential to convert a characterful barn, set in marvellous grounds of approximately 0.75 acres.

This attractive cottage has been carefully restored and updated in recent years to provide comfortable accommodation for family living. The living space downstairs comprises two formal reception rooms, both with exposed beams. The sitting room has a stable door to the front garden, and an attractive inglenook fireplace with wood burner. An inner vestibule from the sitting room provides access to a practical utility room, a cloakroom and a staircase that rises to the first floor. A contemporary glass corridor leads to a delightful double-glazed orangery that overlooks the beautiful gardens. The well-appointed kitchen is of a country cottage style and offers an extensive range of fitted cabinetry together with integrated appliances and Corian worktops.

Situated on the first floor are three principal bedrooms together with a versatile fourth bedroom, study or dressing room. Servicing the bedrooms is an en suite night cloakroom together with a luxury family bathroom.

To the front of the house is a large barn, which is currently used for storage but has the benefit of a planning consent to convert into family annexe/living accommodation (three bedrooms, two baths). We believe that this exciting space poses an excellent opportunity for the new owner to create guest quarters or a potential workplace/studio. (Further information can be provided upon request or via the local government website).

Outside
The property is approached via a sweeping gravel driveway that leads round to a large area for turning and parking. The surrounding gardens are a real asset to the property, consisting of formal gardens to the front of and rear of the house, whilst to the side are further expanses of lawns interspersed with a wide variety of plants, shrubs and established trees. The grounds as a whole measure approximately 0.75 acres.
