Description
The Old Cottage is a beautiful character property sat in large manicured gardens in the middle of the village's conservation area. It was originally sold in the 1960’s as a 16th century little country house with ancillary attached farm stores. Whilst the age has never been verified, it is believed to be one of the oldest properties in the village. Now with several successive ambitious owners, it appears as a beautiful country home of manageable proportions befitting of any country house magazine.
The property is approached by a period gated entrance into beautiful large maturing gardens, very well tended and a gorgeous backdrop to the dwelling house. A long driveway offers parking and continues to a large detached double garage. The house improvements have been thoughtful and careful, meticulous in design with the addition of clever heating systems, including the integration of a solar system with battery storage all done very sympathetically.
The main entrance to the house is on the East elevation. A decorative brick arched entrance into the hall, which continues through to a large sitting room with a feature fireplace, log burner and beams and creates a cosy relaxing space, a beautiful winters evening retreat. From here a small lobby leads to a large more formal dining room with bespoke panelling. A separate bright lounge which ingeniously opens courtesy of a wall of German glass ‘turn & slide’ doors into a conservatory with an outlook over the gardens. The breakfast kitchen was fully fitted by a bespoke Derbyshire firm, hand crafted with high quality cabinets, finished with Quartz/ granite work surfaces including a feature 4 oven Aga, and many other integrated appliances. There is a home office or snug and a ground floor wc. On the first floor, a long landing gives access to a large main bedroom suite which includes a contemporary en-suite shower room. There are 2 additional large double bedrooms and a large 4 piece bathroom. Outside, a walk through the garden will not fail to impress, full of interest and colour with enough tree cover to offer privacy and a shaded spot or two. A large patio offers a place to entertain with a beautiful vantage point overlooking the garden, plus a few additional tucked away spaces too.
