About this property

A charming 4 bedroom detached cottage which dates from the early 1600's and has been cleverly modernised to provide a wonderful mix of characterful features and open living spaces.

The entrance porch opens in to the original part of the house (dating back to 1604), currently used as a T.V snug with beautiful beamed ceilings, Inglenook fireplace with open fire and stripped Oak floors. The dual aspect study to the left hand side has a Victorian fireplace and can be used as a further bedroom if desired. The kitchen breakfast room is finished to a high standard, with bespoke solid Oak units, central island, granite tops, fitted electric Rangemaster, Irish sink and integrated dishwasher. A wide archway leads to the family/Dining room, continuing through bi-folding doors to the impressive full height 18ft sitting room with double doors onto the terrace and garden. A separate utility room and WC are also situated on this floor.
Upstairs provides a galleried landing with views out over the gardens through the full height windows, two double bedrooms, one single bedroom, family bathroom and a splendid main bedroom suite with en suite bathroom featuring a roll top bath and separate shower cubicle. Due to the age of the property the ceiling height and door heights are restricted in some areas on this floor. A stunning property that must be seen to be fully appreciated.

The front gardens are a real feature, beautifully planted and full color and mature shrubs. To the rear of the property is a large garden which is mainly laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs. The terrace runs the full width of the property and is a lovely entertaining space. To the rear there is 16ft x 10ft insulated summer house.
