Interact with the virtual reality tour and contact Forest Marble 24/7 to arrange your viewing of this charming cottage that is bursting with character and warmth, as well as offering exceptional peace and privacy. The home incorporates three bedrooms and a fitted bathroom across the first and upper floors, whilst the ground floor provides impressive amounts of living and reception space, particularly given the age and style of the property. The stunning kitchen is flooded with light from the three overhead Velux style skylights, and includes a range of fitted units and built in cupboards that provide lots of storage and practicality to the room. The dining room is off to the rear of the kitchen and leads you through to a cosy lounge, complete with inglenook fireplace, exposed masonry and original timber beams. The internal accommodation also includes a cellar, which is a versatile and useful storage or working room. Externally you will enjoy the enclosed garden, with its peaceful feel and sunny aspect (additional detail in description). To view the virtual tour please follow this link: 

What Our Vendor Loves

Our vendor has explained that this home has been a quiet haven for over half a dozen years and that it has many facets that will be missed when the time comes to move. The location first appealed as it is so convenient for access to shops, eateries and amenities of Badcox and the town centre, but with rural walks and paths to Vallis Vale, Egford Park and even Whatcombe Fields just minutes from the doorstep. This has been a real bonus as a dog owner! Neighbours have always been really friendly and the area has a warm sense of community.
The living spaces have offered so much more than at first anticipated; having a proper dining room has proved invaluable for entertaining family and friends, the lounge is aesthetically beautiful as well as being cosy on winter evenings, and the light and airy kitchen is the perfect spot to have coffee and spend time during the day. The cellar is an added bonus, we are told that it is dry and well ventilated and that every home should have one! Outside, the garden is a real haven and has become an extension of the house itself that has the feel of "a flower-filled sitting room in the summer".

Garden

This character cottage benefits from an enclosed courtyard style garden space tucked quietly behind the gates that creates a significant sense of privacy here. Part of the outdoor space is covered which allows for year round enjoyment and makes the most of the Southerly aspect. The space is relatively low maintenance and has been utilised effectively by the current owner to cultivate an impressive number of potted plants, shrubs, trees and vines; a testament to the amount of light that this space enjoys.
