Description

A charming detached period cottage believed to date, in part, from circa 1696 during the reign of William III. Rich in character and original features, the property occupies mature gardens and benefits from off-road parking together with three garages.

Enjoying a wealth of period charm throughout, the accommodation includes a welcoming reception hall leading to a cosy family room with part-panelled walls and an attractive fireplace. The sitting room features exposed ceiling beams and an impressive brick fireplace, while the dining room also benefits from a fireplace and opens into a study, providing an ideal space for home working.

The spacious kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of cabinetry complemented by contrasting granite-effect work surfaces, a central island and a striking lantern rooflight, together with space for a range-style cooker. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

To the first floor are four bedrooms, a dressing room and two bathrooms, providing generous and versatile accommodation suitable for families or those seeking additional guest space.

The property is connected to mains water, gas and electricity. Drainage is via a private septic tank which is currently non-compliant, requires repair and is not in working order. Interested parties should make their own enquiries in this regard and factor any remedial works into their proposals.
