A truly charming and deceptively spacious double-fronted cottage, Wisteria Cottage is a beautiful example of how period character can be perfectly blended with modern comfort. Thoughtfully extended, this delightful residence is presented to an good standard, showcasing its rich character features while offering all the conveniences of contemporary living. From the moment you arrive, the home’s attractive façade, with ornate wrought iron fencing and a landscaped front garden, immediately captures your attention, giving way to an interior that is equally enchanting.

Upon entering, a traditional carved wooden door opens into a spacious entrance hall measuring over 17 feet in length. The hall immediately sets the tone for the rest of the property, with its exposed beamed ceiling, tiled flooring, and subtle ambient lighting from three wall lights. A staircase rises to the first floor, and a discreet meter cupboard is neatly tucked away. The hallway also provides access to a well-appointed guest cloakroom, fitted with a classic white suite, including a WC and wash basin, finished with splashback tiling, a radiator, and a continuation of the hall’s charming tiled flooring.

To the left, the lounge offers a warm and inviting space for relaxing, centred around a magnificent brick fireplace with an oak mantel and a multi-fuel burner resting on a tiled hearth. French doors at the rear open onto the garden, allowing light to flood the room, while the beamed ceiling and wall lights add a cosy, rustic elegance.

Opposite the lounge is a separate sitting/dining room, equally characterful with its own feature fireplace, tiled hearth, and soft lighting provided by four wall-mounted fixtures. This room is ideal for hosting dinner parties or enjoying family meals in a setting rich in heritage and charm.

To the rear of the ground floor lies the heart of the home: a generously sized dining kitchen measuring over 18 feet in length. Fitted with a range of 'Ivory'-coloured cabinetry, this space is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The layout includes base cupboards, drawers, wall-mounted units, and a stylish 'dresser' with open plate racks and display shelves. A traditional ‘Belfast’ sink is set into pine worktops, and the room benefits from integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, fridge, freezer, and washing machine. The cooker space is framed by a delightful brick surround with built-in lighting and an oak beam above, giving the room a farmhouse-style charm. A beamed ceiling, tasteful part tiling on the walls, and the practical tiled flooring complete the look, with additional storage offered by a useful understairs cupboard.

Upstairs, the character continues along the ‘L’-shaped landing, where two wall lights, a radiator, and built-in window seating with storage create a cosy reading nook. A separate linen cupboard with shelving adds practicality.

The principal bedroom is a calming retreat, finished with an elegant beamed ceiling, laminate flooring, and radiator cover. Four wall light points offer soft, ambient lighting. The second and third bedrooms continue the cottage theme with more beamed ceilings and natural finishes, while the fourth bedroom, though compact, is full of charm and ideal for a nursery, office, or single guest room.

The bathroom is stylishly fitted and cleverly designed to make the most of the space. It includes a corner bath with shower attachment, a separate shower cubicle, WC, and basin. The black and white tiled floor contrasts beautifully with the part-tiled walls, and finishing touches include inset ceiling lighting, an extractor fan, and a heated ladder towel rail.

Outside, the property sits on an enviable corner plot with landscaped gardens enclosed by decorative wrought iron fencing. The rear garden is a quintessential cottage-style outdoor space, thoughtfully laid out with a block-paved patio and steps leading to a raised lawn and a secondary seating area, ideal for outdoor dining or relaxing in the sunshine. The garden is enclosed with fencing and enhanced with security lighting. To the side, there is a substantial wooden storage shed, complete with light and power—ideal for use as a workshop or secure storage. Parking is available to the rear, adding to the practicality of this beautifully crafted home.

Wisteria Cottage offers a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful property that is both warm and welcoming, with all the hallmarks of timeless English cottage living. Prompt viewing is highly recommended.
