DESCRIPTION:


Pinfold Cottage is a charming, single-storey property built of stone under a slate roof, dating from 2003/4.

Stepping through into the reception hall, to the right is the kitchen-dining room with impressive vaulted ceiling. Triple aspect, the shaker-style kitchen is flooded with natural light. The kitchen itself benefits from built-in dishwasher, fridge and freezer and there is a Rangemaster cooker and wine fridge. The granite-topped island also provides breakfast bar seating and further preparation space.

Double doors open onto the dual-aspect sitting room, also with vaulted ceiling. There is a brick-feature fireplace and a stable door providing access to the walled garden.

Adjacent to the kitchen is the utility room, with plumbing for a washing machine, and boiler-cum-drying room.

Moving along the corridor is a double bedroom with delightful view over the walled garden, a built-in wardrobe and ensuite shower room. Opposite the bedroom is a separate WC.

A door opens onto the rear hallway which leads to the Principal bedroom. Benefitting from multiple built-in wardrobes, the room also enjoys access onto the walled garden and an ensuite shower room.

Two storage cupboards along the hallways and loft access complete the accommodation of Pinfold Cottage.

OUTSIDE:


Pinfold Cottage is approached by a generous, shared, gravel driveway offering off-road parking. In addition, the property boasts a double carport with two large storage cabinets.

Gated access leads into the beautiful, walled garden. A pathway up to the front door travels under archways of honeysuckle, jasmine and roses underplanted by lavender, aquilegia and hydrangea and bursts of colour from spring planting such as tulips and grape-hyacinths.

A seating area provides a tranquil spot to enjoy the garden from. Moving further into the walled garden is a BBQ area featuring spiralled and clipped box hedging.

The paved pathway continues beyond the front door, past a magnolia and opens into a tired area with feature pond and dining terrace. West facing, the garden is a secluded and calm sun trap ideal for entertaining and fully enclosed.
