Impressive Period Home - Occupying a prominent position overlooking The Green in the heart of the ever-desirable village of Tollerton. Corner Cottage is a truly impressive and substantial family home extending to approximately 3,800 sq ft.

Believed to date back to the 17th century, this remarkable residence is steeped in history and brimming with charm, character and beautiful period features. Lovingly updated and impeccably styled by the current owners, the property seamlessly blends heritage with modern comfort. Recent improvements include the installation of two new log burning stoves, solar panels with additional storage battery, a ground floor damp proof course, and extensive works to the roofs and chimneys — ensuring peace of mind alongside undeniable character.

Step Inside - The ground floor delivers wonderfully sociable and versatile living, perfectly suited to modern family life, entertaining on a grand scale or cosy evenings at home.

At the heart of the home lies the breakfast kitchen — a welcoming and well-equipped space, maintained to an exceptional standard, with the added benefit of a practical pantry/utility room. From here, you are drawn into the undeniable wow-factor double-height sitting room. This spectacular space features a mezzanine level, cosy log burning stove and three double sliding patio doors which flood the room with natural light while framing delightful garden views. The seamless connection to the outside terrace creates an effortless indoor-outdoor flow — simply fantastic for gatherings and summer evenings.

The remainder of the ground floor is arranged around a central hallway and offers an impressive array of flexible reception rooms. The second reception room is rich in character with exposed brickwork, beams and a striking feature fireplace — an ideal setting for family celebrations. A third reception room provides a more intimate snug, perfect for quieter moments. In addition, there is a dedicated art studio which could easily adapt to suit a variety of buyer requirements — home office, gym, playroom or additional living space.

Upstairs - To the first floor are four generous double bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family shower room. The principal suite is particularly impressive, boasting a vaulted ceiling with painted timber A-frames, creating a wonderfully light and airy retreat, complemented by its own ensuite bathroom. Three further well-proportioned double bedrooms, two with built-in storage, provide excellent accommodation for family or guests. The contemporary shower room is elegantly finished in soft grey tones, offering a stylish and calming space.
