Description

Cherrington Farm Cottage was originally built in 1903 with attractive stone elevations with brick quoins under a pitched tiled roof. The house we understand was extended in the mid-1990s and internally offers spacious ground floor accommodation. Accessed from the hall, the sitting room extends to some 28` with a wood burning stove and views over the garden at the front, with a southerly aspect. There is a dining room with steps leading down to a garden room overlooking the paddock to the east, and also a step down to the kitchen / breakfast room which is at the rear of the property. This is a good family room with an oil fired Aga, a range of wall mounted and floor standing units and ample space for a table and chairs. A rear hall beyond gives access to the back door and a study. A corridor then leads to a cloakroom and a large utility room with space and plumbing for a washing machine, a range of units and a sink.

On the first floor the main bedroom is dual aspect with aspect to the rear as well as the front, large fitted wardrobes and there are two further bedrooms, one double and one single. There are two bathrooms, one with a Whirlpool bath.

Outside the garden lies predominantly to the south and west whilst the drive leads to the rear of the house, providing access to the single garage and 2 stables and store/tack room. To the east of the house is a level 4 acre paddock.
