A beautifully presented family home that has been thoughtfully improved and updated by the current owners.

Description

Little Grove Cottage is a beautifully presented family home that has been thoughtfully improved and updated by the current owners. Works include the installation of replacement double glazed windows and doors in period correct styles. The heating system has been upgraded with new radiators throughout, and the roof has been fully replaced and refurbished.

The tasteful interior blends a classic design scheme with charming features such as exposed beams, brickwork and traditional wooden doors. There is generous reception space throughout, perfect for relaxing and entertaining.

The spacious sitting room features a log burner set within an open brick fireplace. A bay window to the front and French doors to the garden flood the room with natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Adjoining the sitting room is a snug with its own open fireplace, offering a cosy retreat for quieter evenings.

Both rooms lead into the dining area, which sits beneath a striking roof lantern. This space flows seamlessly into the magnificent kitchen, appointed with painted wood cabinets that complement the colour scheme throughout. The kitchen includes a classic butler sink, stone tiled flooring and a Rangemaster cooker. Three large windows overlook the garden, while a glazed door from the dining area opens onto the patio, ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining. Off the kitchen is a practical utility room incorporating a cloakroom and back door.

Two further rooms lead off the kitchen. A playroom, which can also be accessed from the inner hall and snug, and bedroom five, which together with the adjoining annexe creates a highly versatile self contained space. Benefiting from its own private entrance and kitchenette, the annexe can be separated from the main house via an independently lockable internal acoustic door, providing privacy and security when required.

Stairs from the inner hall rise to a first floor landing. The fabulous principal bedroom boasts two sets of French doors opening onto a balcony overlooking the private rear garden. It shares a luxurious en suite bathroom featuring a central roll-top bath, heritage suite and walk-in shower, along with access to a wonderful dressing room offering ample storage. There are two additional bedrooms on the other side of the house, each with en suite shower rooms, as well as a fourth bedroom.

Outside, the front of the property sits behind a classic picket fence and has been recently landscaped. It is mainly laid to lawn, with climbing roses adorning the façade, creating exceptional kerb appeal. To the rear, a large private garden is enclosed by mature shrubs, trees and fencing. The extensive lawn provides plenty of space to relax. A stone-paved patio runs across the rear of the house, offering an ideal spot for outdoor entertaining.

The thoughtfully arranged annexe benefits from its own entrance and incorporates a kitchenette, making it well suited to a variety of uses. Ideal for visiting family and friends, multi generational living, a home office or independent accommodation, the space offers excellent flexibility while retaining privacy, with the option to lock the internal connection to the main house when required.

A detached oak framed double garage and gravel driveway provide off road parking for several vehicles.
