*NO ONWARD CHAIN* Situated in a peaceful rural position surrounded by open countryside, Wayside Cottage is an attractive detached property offering versatile accommodation arranged over two floors. The property can be used as either a two or three bedroom home, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a characterful countryside property with generous outside space.

The kitchen provides a welcoming heart to the home, fitted with a range of shaker-style wall and base units, wooden-effect work surfaces and tiled flooring. Exposed brickwork and feature beams add character, while there is ample worktop space and room for appliances. The kitchen also provides access to the first-floor staircase and connects naturally with the ground-floor accommodation.

The lounge is a generously proportioned reception room, featuring an attractive exposed brick fireplace with wood-burning stove, creating a cosy focal point. Large windows and doors provide plenty of natural light, along with views and access to the garden, while neutral décor and carpeting create a bright and inviting space.

Also on the ground floor is the dining room, benefiting from excellent natural light, exposed brickwork and a feature fireplace, with ample space for a dining table and chairs.

The ground floor is completed by a modern shower room, finished with marble-effect tiling and wood panelling, together with a walk-in shower, WC and wash hand basin.

Stairs rise to the first-floor landing, providing access to two well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious, offering ample room for a large double bed and freestanding furniture, alongside character-style windows and an en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is also a generous double room, offering flexibility as a bedroom, home office or additional living space, with plenty of natural light.

Outside, the property occupies a substantial plot with extensive gardens backing directly onto open countryside. The established grounds offer a high degree of privacy, with areas of lawn, mature trees, shrubs and established fruit trees. A pathway winds through the garden towards the rear, while the additional outbuilding provides useful storage.

The converted garage provide a versatile additional space, fully insulated and fitted with base units, work surfaces and a fridge unit. The space offers excellent potential for a home gym, bar, home office, workshop or hobby room, subject to the buyer’s requirements.

To the side is a generous gravelled parking area providing off-road parking for several vehicles, with further covered storage available. The property's extensive plot, rural setting and open countryside views combine to create a rare opportunity for those seeking a detached home with a distinctly rural feel, while remaining within reach of local amenities and transport links.

Wayside Cottage offers a versatile and characterful home with well-presented accommodation, generous gardens, ample parking and attractive countryside surroundings. An internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the accommodation, plot and setting on offer.
