The Property

Harvest Cottage is an exceptional newly constructed country house, thoughtfully designed to combine the enduring appeal of traditional architecture with the comfort and efficiency of contemporary living.

Built of locally sourced limestone with finely crafted ashlar detailing, the house sits comfortably within its surroundings, exhibiting a timeless aesthetic. Stone-silled sash windows, leaded bay windows and a blue slate roof with heritage rainwater goods contribute to its distinctive character and handsome appearance.

Internally, the property has been finished to an exacting standard throughout. Oak flooring and bespoke oak joinery lend warmth and quality to the principal rooms, while carefully considered lighting enhances the sense of space and light. The result is a home of considerable style and substance, equally suited to family life and entertaining.

At the heart of the house is a beautifully appointed kitchen and dining room, flooded with natural light and opening directly onto the garden through bi-fold doors. Fitted with integrated appliances and generous dining space, it provides an excellent focal point for modern living. Complementing this are a well-proportioned drawing room with wood-burning stove, a formal dining room and a versatile study or playroom enclosed by elegant oak and glazed framing.

The first floor provides superb family accommodation. The principal bedroom suite enjoys a dressing area and contemporary shower room, whilst the guest bedroom benefits from its own en suite facilities. Two further double bedrooms are served by a luxuriously appointed family bathroom.

The house has been designed with modern technology and sustainability in mind. High levels of insulation, double glazing throughout and an air source heat pump supplying underfloor heating and hot water ensure excellent energy efficiency. Starlink and BT connection points, extensive data cabling and a CCTV system further enhance the property's appeal.
