Turnpike Cottages, Biddestone village

A characterful two-bedroom cottage home situated in the heart of the picturesque conservation village of Biddestone, offering a seamless blend of modern living with period charm.

On entering a useful porch provides lots of space for coats and boots, and then opens up to another hallway giving access to the remaining downstairs accommodation. The ground floor has been thoughtfully modernised to create an open-plan living space. The inviting reception room offers ample space for sofa seating, centred around a charming stone fireplace with a cosy wood burner, perfect for chilly evenings. This area flows effortlessly into a designated kitchen/dining space, with painted wood kitchen, complete with spaces for a dishwasher and fridge/freezer. Excellent use of space enables you to have a small table. A door from the dining area then takes you through to the conservatory where two very good sized cupboard house a modern boiler, plumbing for a washing machine and a huge larder. The conservatory could provide another seating area from which to enjoy the garden or for a larger table if you like to entertain. 

Upstairs, you will find two comfortable double bedrooms, with built in storage to bedroom 2 and plenty of space for freestanding wardrobes in Bedroom one. Bedroom one offers pleasant views over the front garden and the charming village homes whilst bedroom two has an outlook over the garden to the rear. A modern re fitted family bathroom is fitted with a sink inset into the vanity unit, and a rainfall shower over the bath. There is potential to extend further into the loft, subject to planning permission.

The property has gas central heating, double glazing and benefits from all mains services. 

Outside, to the rear the property benefits from an enchanting cottage garden, providing a private and tranquil space for relaxation and outdoor enjoyment. A pretty patio area provides space for an outdoor table and chairs, spacious lawn which is framed with deep flower borders full of cottage garden planting. Boundaries are a mix of fencing and dry stone walls, adding further character to this non overlooked garden. The front garden is also a pretty space and set well back from the lane.  Mature shrubs and established borders keep that country garden vibe and a pathway brings you up to the front door. Parking is on street, and is easily found just to the front of the home.
