Stepping inside, you're immediately welcomed by a spacious reception hall, setting the tone for the quality found throughout. Rich oak flooring, exposed timbers and an abundance of natural light create a warm and inviting first impression.
At the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed kitchen, combining contemporary cabinetry with the character of the original cottage. A central island provides the perfect place for informal dining, whilst a comprehensive range of integrated appliances, including a NEFF coffee machine, BOSCH dishwasher, washing machine and combination oven, make it equally practical for everyday family life. A useful utility room and pantry further enhance the space.
The sitting room is full of charm, centred around an impressive feature fireplace and enjoying attractive views across the rear garden. Offering generous proportions, it provides the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining.
One of the standout additions to the property is the stunning vaulted dining room. Flooded with natural light and complete with a contemporary wood-burning stove and French doors opening directly onto the terrace, it creates a seamless connection between the house and its beautiful surroundings, making it an ideal dining or family space throughout the seasons.
The first floor continues the theme of character and quality, offering three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys generous proportions, whilst bedroom three is currently arranged as a home office, offering flexibility for modern lifestyles. The accommodation is served by both a beautifully finished family bathroom and a separate wet room, providing additional convenience for families and guests alike.
Outside, the gardens are simply exceptional. Beautifully landscaped with manicured lawns, mature trees, colourful planting and an abundance of wildlife, they provide a wonderfully private and peaceful setting. Whether entertaining on the terrace, enjoying a morning coffee or simply unwinding after a walk through the surrounding countryside, the gardens feel like your own private sanctuary. A detached workshop offers excellent storage and, subject to the necessary permissions, exciting potential as a home office or studio.
