The Accommodation - A traditional detached cottage, originally formed from two dwellings, offering spacious and versatile accommodation set within a generous mature plot.
The home opens with a front entrance door leading into a welcoming hall, with internal doors giving access to a series of charming reception rooms.
To the front elevation is a cosy sitting room, featuring an exposed chimney breast, ceiling beams, and a wood-framed window, with a door leading through to the lounge. The lounge enjoys a further feature fireplace, staircase rising to the first-floor accommodation, access down to the cellar, and wood-framed windows to both the front and rear aspects.
A connecting inner hallway provides a secondary front entrance door and leads through to the dining room, which benefits from windows to both front and rear elevations, a feature brick fireplace, and a useful built-in storage cupboard.
The kitchen diner is positioned to the far end of the building and features windows to both sides, fitted base units and matching wall cupboards, preparation work surfaces with built-in oven and hob, and a staircase rising to the first floor. A door from the kitchen leads through to the utility area, offering appliance space, fuse board, and a rear access door. The utility also provides access to the ground floor wet room, fitted with WC, hand wash basin, and electric shower over a self-draining tiled floor, with window to the rear aspect.
To the first floor, the spacious landing offers attractive views across the extensive rear gardens, with internal doors leading off to five well-proportioned bedrooms, all positioned along the front elevation of the building, each with individual windows and door access from the open landing. The principal bedroom, located to the far left of the dwelling, features a chimney breast and front-facing window.
The family bathroom is fitted with a four-piece suite comprising WC, hand wash basin, panel bath, and separate shower cubicle, with window to the rear elevation. The home benefits from gas central heating via a gas-fired combination boiler housed within the bathroom.
Whilst the property would benefit from a degree of modernisation and improvement, it retains immense character and potential.

The extensive rear garden offers a high degree of privacy, being mainly laid to lawn with mature borders and a range of established trees and shrubs, together with a detached, purpose-built workshop.
