About
A characterful three-bedroom period cottage at Caxton Common, thoughtfully updated by its current owners while keeping the features that give it real individuality.
With approximately 781 sq ft of well-planned accommodation and an exceptionally long, established rear garden, it offers village living without compromising on everyday practicality.
The ground floor is arranged around two distinct living areas.
At the front, the sitting room has an exposed brick wall and fireplace, alongside a broad window which brings good natural light into the room.
The current owners have made considered improvements to the interior, creating a comfortable home in which the period fabric sits comfortably alongside more contemporary finishes.
Beyond, the kitchen and dining room measures approximately 15'11" in length, with fitted cabinetry at one end and ample room for a proper dining table at the other.
A separate utility room incorporates a WC, sink, storage and laundry space, keeping these practical functions away from the main kitchen. Upstairs are three bedrooms and the family bathroom.
The principal bedroom is a well-proportioned double with a fireplace recess, while the second bedroom also provides useful double-bedroom accommodation.
The third bedroom is more compact and makes a useful study or nursery, adding welcome flexibility to the first-floor accommodation.
Outside, a paved terrace directly behind the house provides a ready-made spot for outdoor seating before the garden opens into a substantial lawn bordered by mature trees and established planting.
Its depth is one of the property's defining features, providing considerably more outside space than might be expected from the frontage, with a substantial timber outbuilding towards the far end.
Agent's Note: The ground floor flooring has been insulated to modern standards (except the utility room), and internal insulation has been added throughout the property (excluding the kitchen).
