Description

Tucked away on one of Brooke’s most picturesque streets, Wishing Well Cottage is a true hidden gem! Offering a rare opportunity to acquire a property of such character, scale and setting - homes like this seldom come to market!

Believed to date back to the early 1700s and set within a conservation area, this enchanting semi-detached cottage is steeped in history and charm.

As you approach, the idyllic setting immediately captures your imagination. The cottage sits behind a generous driveway with detached garage, parking with this cottage is never a problem. Once inside, a porch entrance leads to a spacious reception hall, a versatile and welcoming space offering a variety of uses. To the right, the elegant sitting room, adorned with exposed beams and a beautiful feature fireplace, creates the perfect space for cosy evenings. The reception hall flows naturally into a charming snug area, leading onwards to the formal dining room, a delightful space ideal for entertaining. These two reception spaces work in harmony, offering a wonderful space to enjoy.

At the heart of the home is the kitchen breakfast room, measuring an impressive 17’11” x 10’0”, with ample space for relaxed family dining. A practical utility room compliments the kitchen.

The first-floor hosts three well-proportioned bedrooms, all accessed via a landing, along with a shower room. A further family bathroom is located on the ground floor for added convenience.

The garden is a real highlight of this home, enclosed, private, and generous in size, with the added surprise of a hidden secret garden tucked away at the rear. This enchanting outdoor space provides a peaceful escape from the everyday, with mature planting and space to enjoy the tranquillity of village life.

Offered with no onward chain, Wishing Well Cottage is an extraordinary find, properties of this character, scale, and setting seldom come to market.
