Description
Step Inside:
The "Gates of Asgard" or front porch, leads you into a spacious entrance hall. On one side, a versatile room currently used as a bedroom offers flexible living options—ideal for a guest room or office. On the other side, a well-proportioned study or recording studio adds even more adaptability to this charming home. The large sitting room benefits from good natural light, thanks to its dual aspect windows, while remaining warm and family friendly. French doors open directly onto the garden—perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
Open-Plan Kitchen and Dining Area:
The heart of the home is the spacious kitchen and dining area, designed for both family meals and social gatherings. Featuring oak worktops, a mid-level oven, and an induction hob, this kitchen is as functional as it is stylish. Large windows offer panoramic views of the gardens and fields beyond, making it the perfect space to enjoy daily life. Adjacent is a utility room with garden access and a family bathroom, complete with underfloor heating that extends from the kitchen.
Flexible First Floor:
Upstairs, the property boasts three (3) well-proportioned double bedrooms, each full of character and charm. The master bedroom suite enjoys scenic countryside views and is a true getaway wit an en-suite loo and sink. The smallest bedroom (Bedroom 4) has existing plumbing, providing the exciting potential to be converted back into a second upstairs bathroom, offering two full bathrooms plus the en-suite.
Expansive Grounds:
Gardeners Cottage has nearly three-quarters of an acre, offering a beautiful mix of lawn, paddock, and a large graveled parking area, all accessed via a solid steel electric gate and your own Rock and stone wishing well. The double garage offers plenty of storage, with a loft space above that could be converted into a home office or annex/workshop, subject to planning permissions, of course.
Outdoor Haven:
At the rear of the property is a well-fenced vegetable garden complete with space for a poly-tunnel, raised beds, and a garden shed—perfect for anyone with a green thumb. The rear garden includes mature hedging, rockeries, and a rose arch, offering plenty of space for outdoor enjoyment. The paddock provides additional potential, whether for a smallholding, pony, or further development (subject to planning permission).
What the Owners Love:
“We’ve loved the character of this home, the expansive gardens, and the flexibility the space has offered. The local community has been wonderful, and we’ll truly miss the peaceful surroundings and the sense of belonging.”
