Townsend, East Harptree

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION CHARACTERFUL PERIOD FAMILY COTTAGE
Set in a quiet village location, a short distance from the children's play area and park, with lovely country walks right on the doorstep, this period semi detached cottage makes a wonderful family home.
The welcoming entrance hall leads through to the dining hall, with its attractive flagstone floor, cosy log burner and access to the kitchen. The generous kitchen/dining room is very much the heart of the home, plenty of storage and ample space for family meals and relaxed entertaining.
A separate boot room leads directly from the kitchen through stylish glazed doors and has direct access to the lane outside - a very useful space for muddy dogs, boots and coats after enjoying the surrounding countryside.
The sitting room is a comfortable family space, with a stone feature fireplace and log burner, making it a lovely room to relax in at the end of the day.
Upstairs are four good-sized double bedrooms, two of which have dual-aspect windows, along with a well-appointed family bathroom with a freestanding bath and separate large shower.
Outside, the garden is private and enclosed, with access to the garage. Above the garage is a spacious home office/studio, accessed by internal stairs and benefiting from dual-aspect windows and views across the surrounding countryside. This versatile space could also offer potential for conversion to a separate annexe, subject to the necessary planning consents.
There is also parking available on the lane outside the property.
The current owners have made several infrastructure improvements in recent years, including installing a new gas boiler and ventilation system, upgrading the insulation and replacing the garage roof.
A lovely, characterful home in a peaceful village setting, with plenty of practical space for family life and the countryside on the doorstep.
Give us a call - we look forward to showing you around!
