2 bedroom cottage for sale

Imagine the charm of a quintessential English cottage: a thatched roof, exposed timbers, and a serene setting in a leafy village. Old Thatch perfectly embodies this picturesque vision. This Grade II Listed semi-detached cottage not only exudes historic character but also offers generous ground-floor space and delightful views over a cottage garden, and paddock beyond.

In all there are three reception rooms. The dining room, with its quarry-tiled flooring and brick fireplace housing a log-effect gas fire, is both cosy and elegant and has stairs off to the first floor. This flows through into a lobby which gives access to the sun room, a bright room overlooking the picture perfect garden and view beyond, while the adjoining lounge offers a cosy retreat with garden views and log burner at its focal point.The shaker style farmhouse breakfast kitchen is well equipped with a Rangemaster oven, Belfast sink, integrated dishwasher and fridge and finished off with granite worktops.Off here you will find a convenient ground floor shower room with a four piece Charlotte suite including a high level flush wc and traditional latch door.  The first floor is accessed via a timber staircase with narrow return (currently with a fitted stairlift). Here you will find two good sized double bedrooms, one with built in robes and the other with a cast iron firegrate and an en-suite bathroom including a classic slipper bath.The cottage style garden has been a labour of love for the current sellers and are beautifully planted to provide interest throughout the year and with multiple seating areas to enjoy the sun.  A separate outbuilding has been turned into a utility/kitchen area with access via a covered veranda from the main kitchen and provides plenty of storage as well as plumbing for a washing machine and space for further appliances.End Thatch has a large gated gravel driveway to the side of the property looking over a field and is accessed down a private road (which is shared ownership with number 64) and is accessed through a timber gate at the end.
