Description

This gorgeous property is the quintessential country cottage. Steeped in history, with parts dating back to 1560, it has been painstakingly maintained and modernised over the years resulting in an immaculate presentation throughout. Whilst the property is currently used as one large, three-bedroom home, it was actually constructed as two dwellings over 150 years apart. The original part has two bedrooms and occupies approximately two thirds of the building, whilst the later addition arrived around 1730 and has one bedroom. Each section has its own external access and would function well as two separate homes. Additionally, there's a third living accommodation here, built by the current owners in 2007, separate from the main home, for use as a holiday let. The period features begin at the front door, which is framed by an ornate, pitched portico and continue once inside with original flagstone flooring in the hallway that flows through to the dining room. This is the perfect setting for family meals or entertaining, with its large, inglenook fireplace, a pretty, cottage style window with a window seat and exposed beams overhead. Conveniently adjacent is the kitchen; a relatively recent extension to the building, having been added in the early 1900's, however, the kitchen itself is very much contemporary. There's a large utility/boot room, complete with a separate toilet, and with the back door here it's ideal for changing from muddy outerwear before entering the living areas. At the front of the house is the sitting room which has another original, inglenook fireplace that has a feature stove. The first floor consists of two bedrooms and a good-sized, family bathroom with both a tub and shower cubicle. The remaining part of the property is the later addition and consists of a lounge diner, with cosy original fireplace, a utility room and a family bathroom on the ground floor, plus a double bedroom and storage on the first floor. The separate, self-contained holiday let briefly comprises a double bedroom with ensuite shower room, a kitchen and lounge diner, with a pretty courtyard garden bordered by a stone wall, all beautifully presented throughout. Outside there is driveway parking for several vehicles and a large, wrap around garden displaying an array of mature plants and trees, with a large garden shed.

What the Owner says:


The house has been in my late wife's family since the 1930's and when the opportunity arose to purchase it in 2005 we jumped at it.

We love that it changes with the seasons, being warm and cosy in the winter and yet refreshingly cool on a hot summer's day.

It'll be hard to leave but its time for another family to enjoy this wonderful home.
