About
Occupying a generous 0.2 acre plot on the fringes of the village and surrounded on three sides by pasture, this charming detached cottage is a rare commodity.
The ground floor accommodation is comprised of a spacious sitting room with windows to all aspects, exposed ceiling beams, a door to the side and an impressive fireplace housing a wood-burning stove and the traditional bread oven, a dining room and a kitchen fitted with range of wall and base units that would now merit updating.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom has views over the gardens and fields to the side and is fitted with a range of built-in furniture, two further bedrooms, one of which would be ideal for use as a study and a family bathroom with separate shower enclosure.
Outside The gardens are a particular attraction of the cottage. To the rear is a level lawn with mature shrub borders and a mature and productive apple tree.
A modern double garage and single "Marley"-style concrete panel garage are complemented by a spacious gravel parking area to the front of the cottage.
The driveway has a five bar gate with boundaries being a combination of mature hedging and post and rail fencing.
