1 Walkhurst Cottages

1 Walkhurst Cottages is a charming semi-detached house retaining much of the original character and tastefully decorated throughout. The property benefits from lots of natural light and some superb views of the garden and countryside beyond. To the front of the property there is an entrance hall with stairs to the first floor and a door into the light and airy sitting room. This really feels like a lovely family room with double doors opening onto the garden patio and a feature fireplace with wood burning stove. There is also a useful storage cupboard. Opposite the sitting room is the kitchen/dining room which is fitted with a range of cream cupboards with worksurfaces over, feature chimney surround above the oven, space for a fridge/freezer and space for a dining table and chairs. Just beyond the kitchen is the boot room with door to the rear garden, cloakroom (with space/plumbing for a washing machine) and a ground floor bedroom which benefits from some lovely garden views. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, the master bedroom has a double set of wardrobes and there is a single wardrobe in the other bedroom. These both share the family bathroom. The property is considered in good order with UPVC double glazed windows and doors, and a relatively new gas boiler. There is potential to extend the property, subject to the necessary planning consents.
