A most appealing extended Grade II Listed period cottage situated in a sought-after historic village with a lovely garden and excellent outbuildings
Property
A charming Grade II Listed gem of a property which brims with period character but also fully integrates modern fittings and detail. The rooms are neutrally decorated and so have a freshness which combines with plenty of light to create a bright, Scandinavian feel. The sitting room features a cast iron wood burner set in an inglenook fireplace which provides plenty of warmth and atmosphere and has two recessed alcoves either side with shelving and cupboards. The windows to the front have seats under and wooden shutters.
The sitting room has a wide archway to the dining area which in turn is open plan to the kitchen which is modern and fitted with an industrial style steel sink unit, electric cooker and marble effect worksurfaces with drawers and cupboards below and shelves above. This area has tiled flooring some of which has under floor heating.
From the sitting room a light and airy glazed atrium links to what used to be an outbuilding but now consists of a cloak/utility room and a spacious garden/family room with a vaulted ceiling, a mezzanine area and bifold doors opening onto the terrace. This space could be used for a number of purposes such as a snug, studio or third bedroom. On the first floor are two double bedrooms, both of which have built-in cupboards, a bathroom and a large, stylish shower room.
Outside
A major appeal of this property is its good-sized and beautifully landscaped sunny garden. To the rear of the house is a sheltered block paved terrace with steps up to the lawn with paved paths, well established flower and shrub borders, an ornamental pond, excellent greenhouse with power and heating, garden shed and wood store.
Accessed from a shared track off the High Street and at the top of the garden, is an area of parking and a pair of double skinned timber outbuildings one of which was formerly a garage but is now used as a workshop whilst the other is split in two, one half being insulated and having the potential to be utilised as a home office or studio whilst the other half is currently a storage shed. Behind the workshop is an additional area of land suitable for keeping poultry or adapting as a vegetable garden.
