Description

Murdochs are delighted to present Broomwood Cottage, an individually designed four-bedroom detached family home occupying a generous private plot, offering a wonderful combination of character features, contemporary living and spacious accommodation throughout. The property benefits from electrically operated entrance gates, extensive driveway parking for numerous vehicles, a large detached garage/workshop, a separate garden room/gym and a magnificent principal bedroom suite with access to a private balcony overlooking the surrounding grounds.

The property has been thoughtfully designed to combine traditional features with modern finishes, retaining exposed timber beams, feature brickwork and multiple log-burning stoves, whilst incorporating spacious open-plan living areas and acoustic double glazing throughout.

Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a central entrance hallway providing access to the ground-floor accommodation. Immediately to the right is a cosy snug, featuring an exposed brick fireplace with a log-burning stove, creating an inviting space to relax. A further reception room offers additional flexibility, with another characterful brick fireplace and log burner, making it ideal as a separate sitting room or family room.

The heart of the home is the spacious open-plan lounge and dining room, providing an excellent setting for both everyday family living and entertaining. This generously proportioned room benefits from an abundance of natural light, with extensive glazing and multiple sets of doors opening directly onto the garden and patio areas. The combination of exposed brickwork, wooden flooring and open living space creates a welcoming environment with views across the grounds.

The kitchen is equally appealing, featuring a range of fitted units, extensive worktop space, a central island and attractive exposed timber beams. Characterful brick pillars and a further log-burning stove complement the modern kitchen fittings, creating a particularly welcoming space with room for informal seating.

Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress, particularly the magnificent principal bedroom suite. This beautifully proportioned room features a vaulted ceiling, extensive glazing and doors opening onto a large private balcony. The balcony provides an elevated position from which to enjoy views across the gardens and surrounding greenery, making it a standout feature of the home. The principal suite also benefits from a contemporary en-suite shower room.

There are three further bedrooms, offering excellent flexibility for family living, guest accommodation or home working, together with a beautifully appointed family bathroom featuring contemporary fittings and skylights.

Externally, Broomwood Cottage occupies an expansive plot with plenty of outdoor space, including generous lawned gardens, mature trees and established boundaries. The grounds provide an excellent degree of privacy, with ample room for outdoor entertaining, family activities and enjoying the surrounding setting.

The property is approached through electrically operated entrance gates, opening onto a sweeping private driveway providing off-road parking for numerous vehicles. A particularly noteworthy feature is the large detached garage/workshop, offering an abundance of space for vehicle storage, workshop use, hobbies or additional storage. The size and versatility of this building make it a valuable addition to the property, particularly for those requiring extensive garaging or dedicated workshop facilities.

Another attractive feature is the separate garden room/gym, positioned within the grounds and providing a useful additional space away from the main residence. Ideal for use as a home gym, fitness studio, home office or recreational room, this versatile building offers flexibility for a variety of lifestyles.

Further benefits include acoustic double glazing throughout, mains gas central heating and the attractive combination of original character features with modern improvements.

Broomwood Cottage represents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive family home, offering generous accommodation, extensive gated parking, a sizeable garage/workshop, a separate garden room/gym and a superb principal bedroom suite, all set within expansive private grounds.

Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the accommodation, plot and unique features this property has to offer.
