Eastmans Cottage comprises a pretty, period, detached home, situated within the heart of the village. The property has benefited from a programme of extension and refurbishment.

On the ground floor, the property is entered into a lovely hallway with adjacent utility and carefully planned storage.

Adjoining is a well-proportioned dining room with an attractive stone fireplace plus fitted cupboards and shelving. There is a modern cloakroom with white suite.

Outside, the property has gated gravelled driveway parking for several vehicles leading to a detached timber-framed double garage, which has storage to the eaves. The garden is a delight, being majority walled and attractively landscaped to include two paved patio areas with lawn and very well-stocked flower and shrub borders, mature trees, a garden shed, greenhouse and secure dog kennel. In addition, there is a covered storage area to the side of the property.

The property is believed to have all mains services connected, with a gas-fired heating system to radiators, and the tenure is understood to be freehold. The property is not thought to be listed but does lie within a conservation area.
