Upon entry into the property a welcoming porch greets you and provides a space for the storage of coats and shoes, before entering the home. Attractive slate flooring spans the ground floor of the property and an opening leads into the open plan living and dining space. Occupying the entire footprint of the original cottage, the lounge and dining area is a nicely sized room with plenty of space for a large sofa and a table and chairs, yet still remains wonderfully cosy thanks to exposed timber beams and a feature stone fireplace with wood-burning stove. Stairs rise from the living space to the first floor of the home and beneath is a useful storage cupboard. The kitchen is located just off of this open plan space, comprising a range of traditional wooden units with butler sink and spaces for appliances including range oven, dishwasher and a fridge/freezer. The kitchen is wonderfully in-keeping with the character of this home and is superbly bright thanks to a feature vaulted ceiling with a large triangular window. Completing the ground floor accommodation is the family bathroom which also enjoys a feature vaulted ceiling and includes a panelled bath with overhead shower, toilet and basin.
