Freehold
Description
A delightful five bedroom, Grade II listed detached character home in a superb central village location. This gorgeous home oozes charm and beautiful period features. Set at the end of a no through road with a mature rear garden with views over the 12th Century Parish Church of St. Peter and St. Paul at the heart of Kimpton village, Well Cottage is an extraordinary home.
Description:
Lovingly maintained and improved by the current owners, the original half-timbered period cottage has been extended over the ages incorporating different building styles and materials including warm brickwork, slate rooves and flint panelling. More recently the double garage has been converted at first floor level into a modern continental style annexe with ornate steel staircase and balcony, ideal for visiting relatives, temporary overnight accommodation or as a creative studio due to the large glazed gable and skylight windows..
The accommodation is warm and welcoming with a good size entrance hall with fireplace, two ground floor reception rooms , country cottage kitchen, breakfast room, utility and cloakroom as well as a ground floor bedroom with vaulted and beamed ceiling and ensuite modern shower room. Three further bedrooms one with ensuite bathroom and a further family bathroom complete the main house. The annexe independent from the house incorporates a further studio bedroom with ensuite shower room, ample storage and balcony staircase with outlook over the gardens. Finally the double garage and off street parking are a huge benefit in a period village home.
The mature gardens are also very special largely laid to lawn they are delightfully tranquil and offer an oasis of calm. The keen gardener will delight in the prospect of enjoying the fruits of their labours with plenty of opportunity to create their own personalised space whether a more formal and structured design or retaining the softer, more informal space currently employed.
