Property Guide Price £500,000 - £525,000. This charming cottage has been tastefully refurbished and enhanced by the current owner to create a fantastic family home complete with annexe potential set in just under 1/4 acre garden.
You enter the house through a porch and hallway leading through to the fabulous kitchen/breakfast room which is very much the heart of this home. There are some original beams and the flooring is a mixture of stone tiles and oak floor boards. The kitchen has white Shaker units with wooden worktops, a free standing range cooker, space for a large American style fridge/freezer and an island with a granite top. The whole space is filled with light from the west facing windows that have fabulous views across the garden with its mature trees and shrubs. The kitchen has a really convivial feel about it and connects well with the dining area that has space for a large table. One can imagine summer parties spilling out through the doors onto the paved terrace.
There is a further opportunity to extend above the kitchen/breakfast room to add an en-suite bathroom should you wish to do so, subject to the usual consents.
From the dining area you move through to a cosy snug which is used as a study by the current owners. There is also a downstairs cloakroom and good storage cupboards.
The sitting room is one of those areas that works as well in the summer as in the winter. There are two large windows which means the natural light floods in. There is also an inglenook housing a wood burner. One can imagine reading a book in the sun or being tucked up on the sofa with the fire roaring watching a film.
From the entrance hallway there is a useful utility room housing the washing machine and tumble dryer. From here you go on to a downstairs double bedroom and en-suite shower room. This room has a door leading out to the garden, so could easily be used as an area for a dependent relative or an Airbnb/annexe.
Upstairs you will find three good sized bedrooms and a stylish bathroom. There are good cupboards throughout and the opportunity to create a further bathroom should you so wish.
Outside: From the kitchen, the door opens to the private garden which is beautifully planted full of colour with well stocked flowerbeds, vegetable plots and mature trees including fruit trees. The terrace is close to the house and is covered by a wooden pergola with a jasmine and a vine that produces lots of grapes. It does invite thoughts of warm summer evenings with dappled light falling over aperitivos. The large wooden summer house with its fabulous veranda offers the opportunity to sit and take in the view while sipping a gin and tonic in the summer months ahead. There is plenty of off-road parking on the generous driveway.
