Description

A spacious and welcoming reception hall with warm oak flooring provides a truly inviting introduction to this beautifully presented family home, where a timber staircase rises to the first floor. A striking dual-aspect sitting room of excellent proportions features a magnificent stone fireplace and is bathed in natural light through a large window to the front.

Extending to the rear is the magnificent open-plan kitchen/breakfast and family area, a brilliant everyday living space where bi-fold doors open directly to the generous paved terrace and garden. The kitchen is fitted with a sleek contemporary range of cabinetry and integrated appliances including a sought after Quooker tap. The substantial stone-topped island offers an induction hob, extractor and a breakfast bar. Accessed from the entrance hall, the dining room features solid wood flooring, two large windows providing natural light from the front, and is conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen, making it perfect for formal entertaining or family meals.

A separate study and well-appointed utility room, with access to a cloakroom and the side garden completes the versatile ground floor layout.

The fine timber staircase leads to a bright and airy galleried landing, which serves as a central hub for the well-proportioned first-floor accommodation. The principal suite is a particular highlight, comprising a generous double bedroom with delightful views over the front and an array of fitted wardrobes, and an en suite bathroom. There are three further double bedrooms, all served by a modern family bathroom, tastefully finished with a contemporary white suite, a shower over the bath, and tiling. 

Each room captures the cottage’s unique character through sloping eaves and large windows that fill the upper floor with natural light.

The property is approached via a substantial gravel driveway providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles, complemented by neatly maintained box hedging and leading to a detached single garage with an up-and-over door. 

To the rear, the beautifully landscaped garden offers a high degree of privacy, predominantly laid to a lush level lawn interspersed with mature trees and bordered by secure timber fencing. A generous paved terrace wraps around the rear of the cottage, providing an ideal space for al fresco dining and entertaining, seamlessly accessed from the kitchen’s bi-fold doors. 

The property is enhanced by two substantial and versatile timber outbuildings, perfectly suited for modern lifestyle needs. The Summer House provides a charming garden retreat, featuring striking black-stained cladding and an inviting interior with vaulted ceilings and whitewashed timber walls. Accompanying this is a larger Garden Office currently utilised as a home gym; this fully insulated building is equipped with power, hard wired internet and double glazing, offering a professional environment ideal for those working from home or seeking a dedicated fitness suite.
