About
This three-bedroom semi-detached cottage sits in the village of Cheriton Fitzpaine, with open views across nearby fields and a practical layout arranged over three floors The house has a warm, lived-in feel, with original features balanced by modern updates, and a garden that’s easy to enjoy and maintain.
The sale is not dependent on an onward purchase. The front door opens into an entrance hall, with a door leading through to the main living room.
This is a comfortable, welcoming space centred around an exposed brick fireplace with woodburning stove.
At the rear of the cottage, the kitchen and dining area runs across the width of the house and benefits from windows on two sides overlooking the garden.
There’s a good range of fitted units with solid wood worktops and tiled splashbacks, along with an electric oven, gas hob and space for a dishwasher, washing machine and fridge/freezer.
A stable-style door opens straight out to the garden, making it easy to move between inside and out.
On the first floor, there are two bedrooms, both with built-in storage, along with the family bathroom. The bathroom includes a bath, separate shower, basin and WC.
The top floor is given over entirely to the main bedroom. Set into the roof space, it’s a generous room with three Velux windows bringing in plenty of natural light.
The cottage has been completely redecorated in a neutral palate ready for someone to move straight in and make it a home.
The garden is accessed via a gated path to the side of the house as well as directly from the kitchen. Immediately behind the cottage is a paved seating area, with a level lawn beyond.
Established borders along the rear fence are planted with a mix of shrubs and perennials, giving the garden colour and structure without making it high-maintenance.
Agents note: The neighbouring property, Hedgehog Cottage, has a pedestrian right of way across the rear of the property via a wooden gate near the house.
The current owners of both properties are happy to negotiate altering the path of access and location of the gate. Please see the floorplan for room sizes.
