DetailsStepping into the impressive entrance hall, where solid oak flooring immediately sets the tone for the character and quality found throughout the home. To your left is the beautiful living room, one of the original parts of this cottage. Full of charm and character, it features exposed original beams, a striking fireplace with a wood-burning stove and French doors opening directly onto the garden, creating a wonderful connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. Returning to the hallway, you'll find the dining room, another characterful reception space enjoying lovely views over the garden. A particularly special feature is what is believed to be the original bread oven, adding yet another reminder of the cottage's rich history. Continuing through the ground floor, there is a convenient guest W.C before entering the beautifully appointed kitchen. Finished with limestone flooring and a recently fitted kitchen, this space perfectly combines period character with modern practicality. The kitchen leads through to a separate utility room, which in turn provides internal access to the double garage. Completing the ground floor is a conservatory, offering panoramic views across the gardens and direct access onto the patio, making it an ideal space to relax or entertain throughout the year.
Heading upstairs, the first bedroom is located at the end of the landing. This is a generous double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and wonderful original character, including exposed beams that reflect the heritage of the cottage. The room also enjoys pleasant views over the front of the property. Back onto the landing is the beautifully re-fitted family bathroom, installed just a couple of years ago. Finished to a high standard, it comprises a bath, separate shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC. Bedrooms two and three are both comfortable double bedrooms and are linked by an interconnecting door, making them ideal for younger children, a nursery, dressing room or home office, while still working perfectly as two independent bedrooms if preferred. Completing the first floor is the spacious principal bedroom. This well-proportioned double room benefits from fitted wardrobes, lovely views over the rear garden and a modern en-suite shower room.
