DESCRIPTION
Having undergone thoughtful improvements and reconfigured by the current owners, this beautifully presented cottage perfectly blends period charm with modern comfort.

Upon entering, the hallway provides access to both the living room and kitchen/diner.

At the heart of the home lies the stunning kitchen / dining room, showcasing a wealth of character features including an impressive Inglenook fireplace and original exposed beams. This space is truly the heart of the home, ideal for both everyday family living and entertaining.

The cosy sitting room is equally inviting, centred around another striking Inglenook fireplace, with beams adding warmth and rustic charm throughout. A door from here opens into the side garden, which leads to the front of the property or rear garden.

A useful study adjoins the sitting room, offering an ideal home office or reading space, with direct access to the rear garden.
