Description

The sellers of this beautiful country cottage are really hoping that we find buyers who will enjoy it as much as they have over the years. While moving on is an exciting prospect, there are always mixed emotions when selling properties that have been loved quite as much as Walnut Tree Cottage. Even when visiting the property for the very first time, this spacious family home had a lovely feeling and I instantly felt welcome. It has many charming character features such as latch doors, oak and terracotta floors and exposed brick and vaulted ceilings, and these natural materials combine with a neutral décor and textiles to create a wonderful sense of comfort.

The property has changed a lot over the years, as the owners have tastefully modernised and adapted the property to suit the lifestyle of their growing family. An attractive one bedroom detached annexe was built in 2002 and is completely self-contained, so perfect for an older relative or for visiting guests. A utility room and separate dining / family room were added to the cottage in 2009 and a fabulous oak framed garden room that overlooks the back garden and neighbouring countryside was built in 2012, quickly becoming the 'favourite' room in the property.

The open-plan 'living kitchen' is the main hub of the home, and has ample space for cooking and dining, as well as room for chairs in front of one of the property's three Clearview wood-burning stoves. Windows and doors to both the front and rear, allow this typical country kitchen to benefit from some lovely views over the ¾ acre of attractive wraparound gardens that surround the property. The four other reception rooms ensure that there is more than enough room for a busy family to have their own personal space.

Reached over a long, sweeping gravel driveway, there is ample secure parking to the rear for many vehicles, including space for a caravan or motorhome. The most attractive, private and well-established gardens and far-reaching views are enjoyed from every room in the property, with the aspect changing with every season. The outside is actually just as well-considered as the inside, with several areas perfect for enjoying the outdoors from growing your own produce, outdoor dining and entertaining and even relaxing under the stars in the hot-tub. Walnut Tree Cottage really is the perfect country property.

Entrance - While there is a front door within a bespoke oak framed storm porch, the family mainly use the back door which leads straight from the driveway when entering the property.

Outside - The property enjoys a private, established and most attractive plot extending to approximately 3/4 of an acre in total. Set back from the road and secluded by established hedging, Walnut Tree Cottage has a generous front garden which is laid mainly to lawn with a range of apple and pear trees as well as several soft fruit bushes. A lovely brick and wooden framed Victorian style greenhouse still has eight years remaining under its manufacturer's guarantee and there are several raised beds, perfect for a thriving kitchen garden.

An extensive gated gravel driveway runs the full length of the plot providing a huge amount of parking and turning space for many vehicles. The generous size of the parking area at the rear of the property makes it ideal for anyone who has a caravan or motorhome.

The rear garden is also mainly laid to lawn with several established trees and shrubs and flowerbeds planted with a host of spring bulbs and attractive cottage garden style plants. A courtyard area to the side of the property includes a covered dining area and a hot tub which the sellers inform us has been fully serviced.
