Description
The cottage is heated by a solid fuel Rayburn, which provides both central heating and hot water. In addition, two further fireplaces bring warmth and atmosphere to the home — one of which features a cosy log burner, perfect for winter evenings.
Outside, the property boasts a wealth of outbuildings including a coal and wood store, a small workshop with power, and a delightful brick-built potting shed. While the shed would benefit from some renovation, it retains an abundance of rustic charm and could make a wonderful garden retreat or studio space.
The gardens offer fantastic scope for landscaping and back onto mature woodland, providing privacy and a truly idyllic rural setting. A garage and off-road parking are located just across Quarry Road, adding practicality to the property's appeal.
Internal inspection is essential to fully appreciate the magic and potential this fairy-tale cottage has to offer.
