Description

Property Description: Guide Price £600,000 - £650,000. This exceptional double fronted, semi detached cottage occupies a generous plot, in an idyllic village location backing on to ancient woodland. The property has spacious and versatile accommodation laid out over three floors and tremendous potential to extend further with planning permission in place to erect a single storey side/rear extension. You enter into a welcoming entrance hall with access to the living room on your left and the kitchen/breakfast room on your right. The living room is a great size with a log burner and plenty of space for soft furnishings; it opens into the conservatory which has glorious views over the garden. The kitchen/breakfast room has electric underfloor heating, a storage larder and a door to access the garden. It is well fitted with a range of wall mounted and base storage units, a cooking range and there is space for a fridge/freezer, a dishwasher, a washing machine, a tumble dryer and a table and chairs for informal dining. Off the kitchen there is a downstairs cloakroom and a double aspect sitting/family room with patio doors leading out to the garden and a staircase leading to a bedroom which could be used as a study if desired. The main staircase in the entrance hall leads to the rest of the first floor which has three good sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. On the second floor is the main bedroom which has an en-suite shower room.

Outside: "The ultimate outdoor lifestyle on the edge of woodland" This fantastic property occupies a very generous and secluded plot, extending to approximately one third of an acre. The rear garden backs on to an ancient woodland and has an abundance of established trees and mature shrubs which create the utmost privacy, as well as a fantastic habitat for garden birds and wildlife. The well established garden is predominately laid to lawn with a patio as you step out from the kitchen, conservatory or sitting room; here there is plenty of space for a table and chairs making an ideal place for some alfresco dining in the warmer months. There is a lovely summerhouse with full power and light connected; this could be used as a garden office if desired or as a quiet place to relax with a good book while admiring the peace and tranquillity of this stunning outside space. There is a magnificent state of the art gazebo/entertainment area at the bottom of the garden with lighting, infrared heaters, privacy screens, outdoor subwoofer speakers and a Parilla Gaucha barbecue superb for hosting family and friends throughout the seasons. The current owners also have a hot tub which can be purchased by separate negotiation. To the rear there is vehicular access and a gated entrance to the double garage. There is plenty of secure parking here too and an electric car charging point.
