DESCRIPTION
A well maintained cottage in a peaceful and rural position which is understood to date back originally to the mid-1800s. Constructed from a mixture of cob, stone and brick, the property was successfully extended with a block cavity extension in the late 1970's to create a larger kitchen, additional bedroom and the bathroom. The impressive gardens extend to approximately 0.5 acres in all with an array of shrubs, plants, trees and natural hedge boundaries with a range of useful outbuildings.
ACCOMMODATION
From the driveway, steps lead to the side entrance with a south westerly facing conservatory adjoining the kitchen/breakfast room. There are a range of fitted base and wall mounted wooden units, with a solid fuel Rayburn for cooking and an undercounter space for white goods. The sitting room has a beautiful fireplace with exposed stonework and original cloam oven, housing the multifuel burner along with an understairs storage cupboard and front entrance porch. Exposed stonework and wooden beams in the sitting room are just some of the character features the property offers, with a wooden staircase leading to the first floor.
The first floor presents 3 bedrooms in total with the 3rd room as a smaller single or perfect home office/study. The principle room has built in wardrobes with cupboards and shelving, whilst bedroom 2 enjoys a dual aspect and far reaching views. The family bathroom has a bath, WC and wash hand basin, along with a separate airing cupboard housing the hot water tank.
OUTSIDE
The gardens of the property must be viewed to be appreciated for the size, immaculate presentation and further potential that they offer. Bordered by natural and well established hedge boundaries with mature broadleaf trees, the gardens are well stocked with an array of shrubs, fruit trees and bushes. In addition, there are large areas of lawns with pathways leading to productive vegetable gardens including beds prepared for next season. Furthermore, the garage has power and light connected with space for 1 vehicle and a workshop area to the rear. There is a concrete driveway with a gated access, providing off road parking for at least 3 cars and an outside loo. There are a range of useful outbuildings throughout the gardens including a purpose built 14ft x 7ft wood store, workshops, tool shed and a former goat barn with internal pens, adjoining fenced concrete yard and grassed area, ideal for those looking to keep small farm animals or chickens etc. A short distance along the lane from the property is an area of off-lying garden. The property comes to approximately 0.5 acres in all.
