The kitchen area boasts contemporary shaker-style units, offering ample storage and a sleek aesthetic, complemented by high-quality work surfaces and a range style cooker.

What truly sets this space apart are the bi-fold doors that seamlessly connect the kitchen/diner to the secluded rear garden, creating an ideal environment for al fresco dining and summer gatherings. The connection to the outside is further enhanced by an atrium, which acts as a bright and airy link between the original cottage and the kitchen/diner, flooding the central part of the home with natural light and adding to the sense of openness.

Completing the ground floor accommodation is a beautifully appointed bathroom. This space has been thoughtfully designed to complement the inherent character of the cottage while offering modern fixtures and fittings.

The layout is practical and versatile, suitable for a small family, a couple, or as a guest room and home office setup. The characterful elements of the former bakehouse are subtly woven into these spaces, maintaining the home's unique charm.

Externally, the property benefits from a secluded rear garden, a private oasis perfect for unwinding or entertaining. The garden offers a peaceful escape, providing space for gardening, outdoor dining, or simply enjoying the fresh air. A significant practical advantage is the side barrow right of access, which provides convenient entry to the garden, particularly useful for moving garden equipment or bicycles without needing to pass through the main house.
