Laburnum Cottage, 14, The Street, Hullavington, SN14 6EF

A magnificent period cottage with origins dating back to 1780, painstakingly restored in recent years to an exceptionally high standard, providing spacious and comfortable accommodation arranged over two floors.

The current owners have undertaken a comprehensive scheme of refurbishment with much of the inherent character and charm being retained and it is only by an internal viewing can this be appreciated.

A striking Oak framed porch with front door opens into the hallway with the ground floor comprising a sitting room with open fireplace and exposed ceiling beams, a family room and an open plan kitchen/dining room with a large feature open fireplace with bread oven.

There is a spacious utility/boot room and a beautifully appointed bathroom with rolltop bath.

The first floor boasts a master bedroom with an en suite shower room and two further generous double bedrooms.

Externally the large rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn with two large timbers sheds, all enclosed by a walled and fenced boundary.
