This attractive, traditional cottage is thought to date from around the late 1700s and is Listed Grade II. Formerly two dwellings, the cottage offers many period features including inglenook fireplaces and deep-silled windows. Extended in 1999, and continually improved and cared for by the current owners, the cottage now offers delightful and practical accommodation, and is ready for new custodians.
The front door opens to the hall. A storage cupboard is set to one side. The cloakroom is beyond. A door opens to the garden.
The sitting room enjoys a dual aspect with windows to the east and west. The inglenook houses a wood burning stove and the cosy atmosphere is enhanced by the exposed bressumer and spine beam to the ceiling.
The study, which has served as a dining room in the past, also enjoys a view up the village street, and across the back garden. The fireplace houses the original range which is in working order.
Steps lead down to the kitchen / dining room which is a lovely, sociable heart to the home. Bespoke cabinetry has been fitted, providing plenty of storage, and is topped with hardwood worksurfaces and drainer with Belfast sink, inset. The hob is fuelled by LPG and the ovens are electric. There is ample space for formal or family mealtimes. French doors open to the garden. Adjacent to the kitchen is the utility room, which offers good storage and space for the usual appliances.
Stairs rise from the hall to the first floor landing. There is access to each of the four bedrooms. The main bedroom is a superb size and has plenty of light from the three windows, including a porthole in the gable end. With the well-appointed and recently updated family bathroom adjacent, it should be relatively simple to create an ensuite bathroom within the main bedroom.
The guest bedroom enjoys a dual aspect and has useful storage built in beside the chimney breast. The remaining bedrooms have an attractive view up the village street.
A gated drive leads onto a shingled parking area where there is room for several vehicles. Some hardstanding is set at the end of the house.
A patio spans the rear of the cottage and is accessible from the kitchen and the hall. The well-stocked bed divides it from the drive. To one end is a brick store. The lawn runs around the parking area to the main garden, where there is a further brick store. The lawn is interspersed with productive fruit trees. A terrace is set to capture the afternoon and evening sunshine. A stone and brick wall forms the boundary.
