Description

Truly the best of both worlds – A charming and detached Grade II listed cottage and annexe with contemporary oak frame rear extension. Gardens and paddock amounting to approximately 1.21 acres, with stable/workshop and ample gated parking. No Onward Chain.




Bagber Cottage is a substantial Grade II listed dwelling with origins believed to date back to 1710. The original property has stone elevations under a thatched roof, with a more recent and contemporary timber frame and brick clad extension, with tiled roof. The current vendors have lovingly refurbished the property since their ownership in 2004, not only extending the property but renovating the former attached Hay Loft, which now serves as a wonderful autonomous annexe or holiday let. The current vendors have created a much loved home, retaining many of its original features yet with a contemporary twist, using stunning oak detailing and glazing to the rear of the property, ensuring the views are fully appreciated. It is set within wonderful gardens and paddock amounting to approximately 1.21 acres and has the added benefit of a sizeable stable and workshop. The property sits individually within its own plot, with a real sense of privacy and impressive far reaching views. Walking and riding opportunities are good, with easy access to public footpaths and bridleways. The original C18 element of the ground floor retains all the period proportions and character, with the principal reception room having generous ceiling heights and a pleasant outlook over the garden. The sitting room has an attractive inglenook fire with ornate woodburner and access through to the superb open plan kitchen/dining area. This wonderful living space has a triple aspect with bi-fold doors leading to the rear garden. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units, with sociable island unit, water softener, integrated dishwasher and space for a range of further white goods. A WC and utility area provides additional storage and plumbing for white goods. A study complete with super fast internet connection, and rear lobby complete the ground floor of the main residence. 
On the first floor are three generous double bedrooms, all benefitting from en-suite facilities and offering pleasant views over the surrounding countryside. The principle bedroom forms part of the contemporary extension, with wonderful vaulted ceilings and exposed oak beams. The master suite has a galleried landing, fitted wardrobes, Juliet balcony and en-suite with bath and separate walk in shower.
