Description

Guide Price- £275,000 - £300,000. Charming two-bedroom cottage with character features including an open fireplace, stylish navy shaker kitchen, valley views, driveway parking for two cars and a generous enclosed rear garden with lawn and two sheds.

Step through the front door into a welcoming open-plan living and dining room, finished with a soft grey carpet that continues throughout both the ground and first floors. The living area enjoys views over the side of the property and centres around a charming open fire set within a brick surround, complete with a wooden mantelpiece, creating a cosy focal point to the room. Traditional single-glazed windows with secondary glazing allow plenty of natural light while maintaining the cottage character. Stairs descend into this room, adding to the home’s characterful layout.

The space flows naturally through to the dining area and onward into the kitchen via a wooden cottage-style door. The kitchen is fitted with navy shaker-style wall and base units, complemented by warm wooden worktops and brass handles for a timeless finish. Laminate tile-effect flooring runs underfoot, while white brick-style tiled splashbacks add a fresh contrast. There is an integrated dishwasher, space for a washing machine, alongside a stainless steel sink, electric hob and oven. A single-glazed window with secondary glazing frames lovely views out across the garden.

Upstairs, the first room is a small bedroom positioned at the top of the stairs, enjoying attractive views over the garden and across the valley beyond. Adjacent is a practical airing cupboard providing useful storage.

The bathroom features distressed wooden flooring and is fitted with a white bath with shower attachment and white tiled surround. An oval basin sits within a marble-topped vanity unit with chrome taps and storage below, accompanied by a white WC, creating a bright and stylish space.

At the end of the landing is the generously sized master bedroom, with the grey carpeting continuing upstairs to create a cohesive feel throughout the home.

Outside, the property benefits from a gravel driveway providing parking for two vehicles. To the rear is a good-sized enclosed garden, bordered by fencing and hedging, with a spacious lawn and two useful sheds offering additional storage.
