The Garden Cottage
The Garden Cottage is a wonderfully unique single-storey attached property dating back to the mid-1970s with an interesting heritage. It was first built by The American billionaire owner of the Manor as a stables and blacksmith’s forge. The latter became the present sitting room and the cottage was rebuilt about 75 years ago. The property was designed overlooking the gardens from every room so that it could be enjoyed inside and out.
The property is all on one level and has a long entrance hallway with an open plan kitchen/breakfast room with feature ceiling beams, fitted cupboards, integrated oven and hob, a breakfast bar and plenty of room for a table and chairs. There are double doors from here into the conservatory which is a great room to enjoy the garden vista. There are three bedrooms, two being double bedrooms and a single bedroom, which would be a useful office/study if required. The master bedroom benefits from fitted cupboards/wardrobes and a modern ensuite shower room. The two other bedrooms share the family shower room. To compliment the accommodation is the spacious sitting room which features a high ceiling and wood burning stove. There are double doors from here onto the garden.

The property is considered in good order throughout and early viewing is highly recommended.

The property is in a tucked away location set down a private shared driveway serving just the neighbouring properties.
