About
Tucked away on Burnt Oak Corner in the heart of East Bergholt, this period cottage offers a warm and inviting setting with a balance of character and charming practicality.
The cottage also benefits from a paved courtyard garden which is a sheltered and low-maintenance space, featuring an open well with a protective grill, adding a distinctive touch to this appealing home.
The cottage sits behind a picket fence, which frames the cottage neatly, setting it back from the road and enhancing its appeal.
The front door opens straight into the heart of the home, where the staircase rises ahead and the space gently leads you through to the principal rooms on either side.
The sitting room sits to one side, a relaxed and inviting space with a natural flow and a connection through to the courtyard, allowing light to filter in and give the room an easy, open feel.
On the opposite side, the kitchen and dining room forms a sociable hub, arranged for day-to-day living with space to cook, eat and gather.
Light from the garden draws through here as well, and doors opening out create a seamless link to the outside space.
Beyond this, a useful lobby provides a great spot providing useful versatility for practical use and storage, whilst leading to a cloakroom.
On the first floor, the landing leads to three bedrooms, each with its own sense of character shaped by the cottage’s original features.
The principal bedroom is a comfortable double with a calm and restful feel, while the second bedroom offers similar versatility.
The third bedroom is well suited as a single room, guest space or study, making it a flexible addition depending on individual needs.
The bathroom is arranged to serve all three rooms and includes both a bath and separate shower, finished in a style that complements the overall feel of the house.
Natural light reaches each of the rooms on this floor, enhancing the sense of space and creating a bright yet cosy atmosphere throughout.
Outside, the property continues to offer a sense of character and ease, with a paved courtyard garden providing a sheltered and low-maintenance setting.
This space is arranged to make the most of its privacy, with a particular feature of the garden being the open well, complete with a protective grill, which adds a distinctive focal point and a nod to the cottage’s heritage.
The layout allows for a variety of uses, from quiet seating areas to more sociable gatherings, all within a setting that feels both contained and inviting.
